Shout Lightens
Submitted by Magic on Tue, 2009-12-29 14:51
Read somewhere that Shout Lightens are reasonably good when targeting demersals on jig so want to get my hands on some to try out. Are there any stores in the West that carry them? Alternatively, are there on-line stores that carry a reasonable range? Thanks

Online..
I dont know anyone in perth that keeps them so i order mine from a shop and e-bay called shimreels.I have found the 90gram in gold and sardine to be very effective.

Gotone Woodvale used to get
Gotone Woodvale used to get them sporadically. Not sure if they'd be able to get them now (now The Fishing Shop).
Otherwise you'll need to order them online as Chris said.
As for the jigs, yep, they are good jigs for targetting demersals. 90g is a good size (but 70 or 50 have been useful for me). I quite like them (though the paint on them sucks - it comes off too easily, but they still work).
My favourite jigs are the Zest baitfish and the smith CB's (both available locally at Oceanside and Campbells respectively). Lots of other good jigs out there, but most you have to import unfortunately. A few people like IMA-Ro's (can get locally now) but I havent caught anything on them myself yet (only tried on one trip though).
I probably have one or two spare shouts kicking around if you want one quicker (if you do order online, theres probably a few I'd be interested in if you want to combine orders).

There should be some around
There should be some around town in a few weeks time. Otherwise, Shimreels or similar. 70gm in Blue/Pink has accounted for at least a dozen Dhus for me.

Thanks for all the info.
Brody, could you also PM info on the ones that may show up in a few weeks time.
In the mean time I'll pop into Campbells and check out the Zezt baitfish as well.
