itu pasal la brader. Actually, cheap ones also manage to get bites and naik some peacocks lol.
the Peacocks i go hunt tak layan my yozuri and storms,.. pening pening. Maybe its the colours or maybe its just i am still too noob to work the lures.

Yeah,.. i agree with ya. Need to learn and master the actions to present the lure and make it look yummy.
Reeling speed, twitching, jerking, jigging,.. when to use and with what lure,.. thats what i am keen to know.
Easiest are topwater when only require reeling in or twitching for walking the dog, occasionally pause for a few seconds.

Thats A LOT of lures,.. saw some Abu and mostly Rapalas.

FYI guys,
I was at SS2 Anglers yesterday evening till they closed, bundle sale conner got some nice DUEL popper and jg metals. it was a one stop shop for my Jurassic shopping, got meself decoy and owner hooks/split rings. As for you light and UL anglers out there, plenty of light weighted stuffs there, finally found my 6 pound line, so many brands to pick from. Nearly bought 4lb.

Another cheap place,.. if you are keen with Sufix line, please head over to JM tackle in Kepong, good discounts especially for Rapala and Sufix. Tufline also cheap.

Bro,
Any lure is a good lure, as long as we know how to use it the right way. My lures are cheapo also, got a bunch from Rawang tackle shop. 7 bucks each, manage to land some peacocks with it. Most of my other lures branded or not,.. nothing over RM20, cos I just started fishing and losing lures seems to be a fav pass time of mine

Always with bad knot, slipped knot, one time smart alec me was burning the leader knot to create a bulb didnt realise wind blowing the fire to the main line. Weakening the mainline and lure went with it upon casting... haihsss.
Lost a few snagged into weeds and underwater structures... haaiihhzzz.
1 cool thing i find fishing facinating are the lures, how they swim and the actions. the colours and art (some so real especially japanese soft plastics). I have to admit,.. i am hooked collecting lures.

Agreed, Red hot, SS2 and JM tackle is one of the few shops i like to go, cos they dont jack up the price tag and give discount. Prices are nett and dicsount given for the grand total.

Bro where is the Puchong tackle shop you talked about when we went Shah Alam fishing?

All braided, not sure if I can post the prices here,... any forum rulez or restrictions?

I bought Sufix performance braid fused - 6lb cant remember the price.
Power pro 20lb RM45 (Ocean Sea got PP promo, dunno still valid or not)

4lb was Berkley fireline Braid
5lb - Power pro - RM45
6lb - Stren microfused / Stren Sonic Braid / Berkley fireline fused / Fireline Braid / Spider wire

I cant remember all the prices, i think I paid 55 for my sufix 6lb, last box.
these light line,.. susah cari and always limitted stock and last box.

JM tackle,.. plenty Tufline Duracast 6lb but 300 yards.

DONE! Transaction number - 1637905291

SWEET!! get to test out Shimano gears!!

waaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh jialatz,,... pokai weii!
I not familiar with BC,.. is curado G 2012 model?
I only see Curado E, BC reels are so expensive la, cheap one no good and smooth. Decent Daiwa BCs are over 1k, Curado no more JDM right? Now all bikin in Johor i heard.
Good ones not cheap,.. Most american brands here tarak, only seen the Pflueger. Quantum smoke was rated highly too.

Can PM me your price? Local unit or sindiri import? Got warranty?

OOOooooo yahlah,.... Curado G is Johor bikin. I am still dreaming of the Citica at SS2 Angler.

OK, thanks for the tip,... I will work on my spin reel skills first. Till the day i can hit coke and pepsi cans 20-30 meters away then i got with BC. LOL.

Bro, I ran out of red wine,... I will bring some Coconut wine (local made expensive tody) nice with hot days when its really chilled.

so how much is the Curado G? Is righty cheaper than lefty?
Good to know u can use both your hands rofl

Anyone here seen or used Yozuri Hybrid line? Its suppose to be in btween a mono and floro. INvizible but still can take strech and abrasion.

TGIF!! so what you all getting from Kepong ??

Youtube it up. I cant access youtube in office else I would give you the direct link.
I usually use Uni knot to anchor the spool with a mono then connect with a double unit to my braid.
The mono helps with gripping the spool so that it will not slip when you crank.
Most commonly used is Arbor knot to the spool. If you're tying Braid then use a electrical black tape at the start, that helps the braid to grip the spool. Power pro comes with a small take in the box.

Ensure that your line is spooling in the right direction, most spinning reels turns anti clockwise, flip your line box to the same direction. Else when you cast it will bihun. If you;re spooling BC,.. then it doesnt matter which direction.

If you are on spin reel, you need half your rod and run thru the line thru the first guide. Lock your drag to max and keep your line tight with your thumb and finger while reeling in your line. Your bail will do the job of making sure the line goes to the right place. Every 30 secs or so, stop reeling and check the line on the spool make sure its tight and secure (give a few squeeze and press). Then continue reeling till your spool is full. Dont over spool, leave a few mm from the edge of the spool, too much line will cause bihun when you cast.
