PESCA Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 My Air Pro's have a different method of fixing to the one shown. They have a plate fixed to the base, which has a tube, and a bolt to hold the rod from the bouncer. The bouncer rod is parallel to the decoy, whereas yours is at 90 degrees to it. Used these decoys on bouncers and the magnet. Great on the magnet, but you have to give them a flick to start them off, while the magnet is rotating. Some weren't keen on spinning at all, as the wings sometimes fouled on the body, so I added little bushes to the rod (either side of the body) to prevent this. Same as all decoys, I find that they work well, on their day, but not everytime. PESCA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
