There is a tackle shop in kelmscott (carry on fishing & camping) that has heaps of them
I have just moved that way and was on the search for a local tackle store and found them they have the r2s frogs as well

Thanks mate. I'll head out there this week and get some. They should work well around sticks / snags where bream hang waiting for bugs to fall from trees ect. I would imagine the best way to fish them would let them sit for around 10 seconds and then retreive. Can't wait to give them a crack

the gt bug(beetle) is great on trout fished at night very agressive takes on them,also still very visual on a dark still night

Paul, what sort of retrieve do you use with the gt bug at night? Do you get most of your hits when the lure is stationary on the surface?
Cheers, Jason |

very slow roll with a pause every now and then ,hit rate seems to depend on the fish some times on the pause other times while it is moving,but they just smash it when they take ,not to many taps or picks at it,ihave been fishing this lure for over 12 months ,yet to try it on bream
could work along river banks paul

I diddent think that anybody was using them I guess I was wrong I may have to get them out and give them a bit more of a flick about
I just picked them up because they looked cool ![]() I might have to make up a BUG box to take out with me next time
