Making shrimps/prawns out of drinking straws.

[no-one in particular]

Came across this, reluctant to promote more plastic but this is genius and possibly deadly as well. Sea intended but I am sure a big perch would be interested.

Very interesting, very talented to come up with the idea.

Very ingenious indeed, but I'd rather net out a few live ones.

Oh, yes deadly but bloody difficult most of the time, I thought this is the most lifelike one I have seen and I have seen a few, generally made out of rubber or ones I made myself out of fishing line but; this beats them all and costs nothing. I will try it sometime if I find a few straws that are suitable. A good way to while away a few hours on a winters wet afternoon.
