I don't know if I got a good price or I got ripped off, I didn't bother shopping around.

brian, is this one of the old batch or one of the new batch from japan? did it come with a spare spool?

overseas the latest batch is about USD320, but those are made in china.

edit - updated with latest exchange rate

It says Designed and engineered in Japan so I guess Japan but who knows. No spare spool in box, should there be one?

Cool have fun

Logan River Marine have got a heaps of big poppers and lures at 40-50% off while stock lasts. I nearly bought some just to store up until whenever I get there next. I still might yet.

[Keechie]

damn brian only if it wasn't so far away:( i heard sandgate tackleworld have big poppers and stuff on sale so i am heading there this weekend to stock up for the end of the year trip.

[mullies_chaser]

Not a lure purchase or anything but that Spray Bar I bought has just been installed in my 4.1mtr Polycraft.

Hopefully looks after the bream nicely!

[Feral]

Ok decided to join the blade revolution.

top two are 3/8 oz 50mm chrome ones from Ebay, $3 each with delivery.

Bottom five are done by Scrote, very nice work I must say! also 50mm but only 7g. Well priced as well, 29.50 delivered for the 5.

[fisherjack1394]

i own just over 15 lures and i am just starting to get into Gulp. i preffer small lures that dive to a depth of around 6 feet these lures seem to work best for me.

[Brian D]

Which tackle tray are you gonna store them in Feral, I can't see you fishing with them :woohoo: :laugh: :laugh: if you do it might take a bit to land a fish - there's no hooks on them :laugh: :laugh:

new batch from China have a new spool included for some markets, but another member of the site reckons his got taken out of the box. hard to say. but it's still a good deal.

They are the best yellowfin bream hard body

I just bought a tda 3000 and a 6-12lb daiwa zero so a staple diet of mi goreng for me too

[Keechie]

what you see is what i got, feeling too lazy to list them out. Lures from my trip to a few shops today for my trip to vanuatu later this year.

[bretto]

Those captiva poppers look the goods keechie. Did you get your williamson jigs from anaconda? I got 4 250grm for $40 on sale last week.

[Keechie]

The poppers stood straight out to me being in the throw out pile for $12 each thought bargain grabbed a few and so did dad so hopefully they produce some big fish.

Unfortunetly i didn't get them from anaconda got them from bcf, was unaware that anaconda had a sale on them. By any chance do you know if this is still running as i might pop in tomorrow after a fish to check it out???

[bretto]

Was at the ashmore store on the goldy mate and I got the last of the 250grms but they still had quite a a few 300-400grms. They were just in a clear out section of the shelves. Also picked up a daiwa zero for 140 too. Bargain!!

[rastus]

i just picked up a pflueger infusion 2000 size for my new spin reel for plastics and lures. loaded with pe 8lb. going out tomorrow to see what i can find

THis might sound a bit dumb but don't you need some bigger ones or am I just caught up in hollywood? I didn't notice any tribble trebbles!

The flash on the F18 looks good.

[TomW]

Got a few more lures today, should do well on a variety of species.
