Daiwa Bay Rubbers and Raba Raba Taikabura jigs Cost

What is the price for these in Perth. Up here in Karratha they are pricy and I use and obviously loose a few. Everything loves them, especially drifting with a very lazy slow motion up and down jig.

Around $25 for the raba

Around $25 for the raba rabas and $20 for the bay rubbers. Others can be a bit cheaper (e.g. the gillies octas which i've had good success on. Plus they have more deadstick action).

Considering you live up north though, you could probably use leadhead jigs and attach a few cut up rubber bands, lol.

Lead heads just dont look the same!! Raba raba's are sooo pretty! And there is no fun in collecting leadheads.

I wouldn't be wasting my time with leadheads either Neels, everytime I get blown away my wallets cursing at me for loosing another 30-60 cents.:)

I have used the Raba Raba

I have used the Raba Raba and Gillies Ockta with no apparent difference in performance. I will be going with the Ockta from now on, they are significantly cheaper, they are available in a wide range of sizes and I have a bit more confidence in the strength of their attached hardware (JMO)

I have tried a fair few

I have tried a fair few brands from the cheap to the expensive and they all seem to work just as well. a note though on some of the cheaper ones the rubber "skirt" are not as durable but they do catch fish just the same.
