Phil if its an old magnum surely it will have grey hair and a big grey moustache by now thus making recognition a doddle  :laugh:  :laugh:,not sure about the countdown though depends wether its a male or female(mmm Carol Vorderman can come fishing with me anytime now she's out of work  :kiss: not sure about old Des Lynam tho)

If it was a Magnum then it would probably have 'Magnum' on the lip, Husky Jerks don't come with rattle chambers either (I think).

Got your pic Phil, I'm 95% sure it's a Rapala Husky Jerk. Magnum lips are further forward and the older Husky Jerks have slightly raised gill covers  :wink: Could be wrong though, does it sink?
