Hey Raiders

Ok - i'm stuck in Penang, Malaysia for a few weeks to due work so what better thing to do on the weekend than to hit the local tackle shops!

I found a line of tackle shops about 20 minutes away from the hotel so I paid them a vist this afternoon... came back with these.. :thumbup:

With the current exchange rate of AU$1.00 to RM$3.25.. I was VERY pleased with the prices... terminal tackle and lures are 1/2 to 1/3 of local prices! They even gave me a 10% discount off my entire purchase - hahahah ... laughing!

Berkley scented squid jigs - AU$3.50! I paid $15 for these back in Sydeny and are one of my favorite jigs for Botany so i cleaned them up!
