Yeah the Ink sack is an interesting innovation. No better way to show an octopus in distress.

In their element - An octopus is a feared hunter - I've seen fish jump on to dry rock to get away from one as it slinked its way down a rock wall.

But if they're out on the open and showing signs of distress the tables can turn pretty quick.



And the big fellas dont mind snacking on them either

Yeh wasn't much interest in showing off the product or how it works. The other half managed to drop the whole thing into the depths of Davies Locker when she played with one...

I walked away before we were escorted off site for ruining displays...

Heh Heh - Yeah the vids show a fairly eratic retrieve - it would have been interesting to see a more subtle presentation like one pulsed along the bottom

You could get some really good movement from dead sticking the lure just with wave action alone.

I for one don't get enough time on the water outside to even use my old school Gillies Octa jigs...

Oh to have time and a boat...

Yeah it looks like its built to wave to the fish to invite them over for feed.

Yeah me and the rest of the Judging panel deliberated for a while over that one - in the end, the ink sack got it over the line

I was up there at AFTA, the leg action is incredible. It just never sits still!
