  1. If it's barra you search for, head up to cooktown..
  2. that would have gone like a shower of .... imagine how you'd be to be getting hammered by that thing and think you're onto a ripper fish.........and you haul up a cattie!
  3. Not marlin, looking to get stuck into some macks, wahoo, mahi mahi, etc....
  4. Decided to go for the JDM Daiwa Freams 4500J For someone with a preference for shimano, i seem to have now magically acquired 3 daiwa's in quick succession..........
  5. wes you gotta come out with smithy sometime. heading out 6dec with a couple of guys from work... cant wait!
  6. So I do have a Tierra 3000..... if iu se the spare spool with jigging braid, will it have the nuts to be up to the task ?
  7. "In Australia Daiwa released Capricorn 4500J which has a new Saltiga type handle, larger type power knob and a waterproof drag. In Japan this reel was listed as a Freams 4500J. "
  8. the oceano looks ok, but it's only got 2+1bb ???
  9. you the younger guy ? i'm likely to have been one of the few customers to come in wearing shirt & tie I imagine...
  10. I was in there today ! very helpful as always, i cant believe i managed to walk out of there without buying anything ! that's a first !
  11. oh and i know there'll be the "get a 18000 series reel and put 100lb on it, etc etc.." But i'm not really into that... the lighter gear and degree of uncertainty adds to the excitement i think...
  12. the usual...cobes, kingies, AJ's, macks, tuna.... Depth will be 100m absolute max rod unknown at this point jig weights to mostly suit the current, but prob from 100-250g
  13. there's a big weight difference between the sara 4000 and 5000, not a huge line capacity diff and no drag pressure diff...is going up to the 5000 worth it ?
  14. can get it delivered from the US for about 240-250 landed... sounds good to me...
  15. i know wesfish has a saragosa, but i think it might be an 8000 ? wes?
  16. Hey guys, Any thoughts on the suitability of the shimano saragosa 4000F as a light jigging reel ? Seems to be suited and well priced from the USA, would be looking at spooling it with 30lb jigging braid. the 4000 can dish out 44lb of drag so it has some balls....

    yeh try CLR, it's a Base isnt it ? Have you/anyone tried Coke ? it's pretty acidic, you'd be surprised what it can do...
  18. I pay cash. I have always found that fresh, crisp folding talks across all and any barriers...
