Just dropped $600 at BCF.
I reckon he's generated at least 100k in tackle sales this week.
Wish me luck

Hopefully out for a look tomorrow arvo, early run out wide on Saturday, Sunday depends on how well the 1st 2 days go.

LOL
I'm heading out at 2:30pm today and again on Saturday morning, just went and bought a bunch of new lures and some other terminal tackle so there goes $200. Doubt we'll replicate our last trip but I'm still gonna try.

none cause I spent it all
none cause I spent it all years ago dreaming of marlin....lol
I have lures, rods and line that probally will never see a stick face ever...but I got them just in case.
Ever since I have been in WA since 2004, I have always had a heavy 24kg stand up rig on board. Much to the sniggers of most, but one day it will pay off...
nothing worse than seeing a big beast pop up behind your trolling lures and all you got out is twiddly 10kg gear.... and nothing onboard to flick out to catch it..... Ask Honsu what happens when you got 10kg gear out....lol... I bet he has cursed many times that he did not have a full rollered 24~37kg game rod and a Tiagra 50W LSR that day....
oh well you guys are keeping the ecconomy healthy, spend less on TV's and playstations and more on Tackle.... thats my moto...lol
