    Where to buy?

    I use Z-Man soft plastics and I haven't found any online stores that offer significant savings over retail stores due to shipping costs. Adapt or die. If you own a tackle store and you don't have any plans to start selling online you're eventually going to go out of business.
  2. They definitely work.....at catching lazy anglers.
  3. It's a great idea, but without the oil being made available for purchase it forces you to pay for servicing and I refuse to pay for something I can do myself.
  4. E.I Anti-Corrosion treatment, lower ratio & a spare spool.

    Braid

    I only use braid when using lures.
  6. Shop around and you'll find a Biomaster for $300.
  7. The changes to the gearing alone is worth it in my opinion, not to mention the new drag system and spool design.
  8. Well there are headlamps with brightness modes, and just because something is top of the range doesn't mean it will be high lumens. If you want to preserve night vision a red light is best.
  9. If you're spending $600 you may as well put in another $300 and get the FI model.
  10. Quality is everything, in everything.
  11. Proper preparation and cooking makes this unnecessary.
  12. I've tried a lot of brands and I keep going back to Sunline. I like Varivas and Toray too.
  13. They are the result of years of research and development being put to use, which clearly benefit the fishermen in fishing for their target species.
  14. Definitely actual benefits. I'm taking about jig action, sink rate and sink angle.
  15. And give up all the benefits that quality jigs provide, never.
  16. 6-8kg, that's the Viper. I hate it when stores stress the rod by grabbing the tip.
  17. No they don't, but it doesn't stop me from trying to find an excuse to buy one.
  18. How can they even consider these reforms after all the hard work that's been done to protect these environments. Why should we ruin our waters just for the well being of professionals. I have one message to these professionals who clearly do not care about sustainability, sort out your resume and find a different job.
  19. I really like Gan Craft, going to order the Australian colours, but there's just something about the Harimitsu jigs that grabs me.
  20. The case in my picture is pretty small, 268 x 147 x 26mm. One of my favourites, the squid seem to like it as well. Yes. The only brand I'd buy in Australia is Gan Craft because they're actually priced reasonably compared to Japan.
  21. None whatsoever. It's getting there. I've got the same colours, plus a green/gold and a purple/purple, in size #3 and I've still got another 20 or so to order.
  22. The main cause of jigs getting snagged is how they fall and rest on the bottom. If you use high quality jigs you'll get snagged less as they'll fall at a 45° angle and rest on the bottom nose down. It also pays to study the areas you're intending to fish, that way you can fish the jig accordingly to avoid snags.
  23. It was extra, cost $12. The Evergreen egi cases are, in my opinion, the best on the market. Roughly $134, saved over $100.
