COVID Tackle

 How many people on here have caught COVID from contact with all the shit imported tackle everone is selling now?

The latest trend seems to be selling imported crap at premium prices like it was made locally - like a painted jighead with shit hooks tied with string is worth $30???

I dont want to pay for crap and I really don't want to pay for crap with a side order of COVID!!!

If you blokes keep buying this up I reckon we're all rooted even if our Premier does a better job than God at protecting us from ourselves.

Is there anyone making quality gear in West Oz any more that isn't contaminated with Wuhan herpes virus???

Wed, 2022-01-12 06:53

 Quite a lot of the bits and peices we need are air or road freighted from Australia's Eastern seaboard which at the moment is COV19 central and if you look closely at everything you buy there is a very good chance that at least some parts of it contains "Chineesium" anyway.

If you look at where you mail has originated it is likely that some of your letters have also come from over East and I have yet to hear of Anyone contracting COV19 from opening a letter or a box of fish hooks.

 There's nothing to suggest that you can get COVID from a parcel or anything like that but I agree that paying good money for crap goods sucks. Friends on the east coast (some who have or had COVID) are saying that deep-cleaning isn't a thing over there any more. A good mask is your only real protection in the community.

Wed, 2022-01-12 11:03

Mackdog tackle make a locally made underdog hybrid jig with BKK hooks etc.

Fraction of the price of the imported stuff and much better quality imo

Been doing well on them of late, accounting for some nice big 90cm+ dhu's

 Good for Mackdog!

And nobody expects all of the components to be made locally - eg don't know any locals producing split rings - except Warwick Capper and the odd porn star arhahaha.

 

Any more local manufacturers we can support people???

Shit, I get stuff from China

Wed, 2022-01-12 11:59

Shit, I get stuff from China periodically for lure building and always blast it with ISO spray before opening, but I thought I was just being paranoid, can't say I have ever heard of anyone catching the rona off a parcel, are they licking their parcels lol, actually I don't want to know.

I have more concern over the influx of people come early Feb.

Big John's jigs are top quality and worth the money, from all the posts I have seen of his he sounds like a good bloke as well.
