Here is their site http://www.marukyu.com/eng/ecogear/premium_hb/sx40f_oz.html

I have caught Bream, Flathead, Moses Perch and Pike (the australian type). They are probably the most common hard bodied lure used in the ABT Bream Tournaments.

They cost between $15-$22 depending on what type you buy and where you buy them from. $17.75 from BCF. They come in a range of 3 sizes SX40, SX48 and SX60.

Yeap was reluctant to buy them at first due to price. But you can often find them on special. Still easily my most successful lure (hardbody anyway). I have caught lots of fish in both Salt and fresh. Its an awesome lure for bream in particular. Cast it up against some pilons and good luck!!

Entire range was on for $10 each at the BCF night. Well i think it was the whole range. Didnt get chance to have much of a look at them as locked in cabinet. Had I have known the reputation of them I might have snuck one in my pocket.. After paying for it ofcourse!

Went past the ipswich store on the way home from work tonight and they had the whole range of ecogear lures for $10. In tiny writing it said \"exluding sx\"

Anyway ended up getting a nice ecogear popper for $10. There were only assorted sx's left and one lone cx.

Went to BCF today and bought a sx40 the new bream colour 246 for $17.95.

Will try it over the weekend.

[MichaelJ]

[Bri The Pom]

[MichaelJ]

[Bri The Pom]

At the time i did'nt know what it was,i just threw it back.

[Lukey]

[Bri The Pom]

I went to Doug Burts on the GC and picked up my 1st SX40. I was a bit disoppointed in the rages of colours and the price. The new stock is $22.95 and the old stock is $17.95. Here's what I ended up getting.

I caught a tumper last trip to NP on the large gold slugs. I got the last 2 so note Aaron one's yours mate.

How about the little cranks - they look sweet, hope they work.
