  1. Thanks Bream ReaperI would assume that changing the tow point positions change depth or action or both blighty

    Mostly action- depends on if you are vertically jigging (tea bagging) or horizontally retrieving the blade/vibe. My post was mostly directed at blades and reading back I see you were asking about vibes..... some of the vibes (more like hardbodies) are slightly different and most have one tow point, so sorry to get confuddled. :S Although blades are vibe style lures..... anyway :whistle: My fave vibes are bassday Kangoku and Cranka vibes.
  2. Hi allall the talk at the moment is the success people are having with Vibes. All my lure fishing is with SP's and the odd HB. Wish to have a crack at throwing some of these and need some general advice.Firstly all my lure fishing is at the Onk and Pat, so my general questions are ?1/ general Vibe recomendations ?Most vibes work OK, I like Ecogear VX and ZX and TT Ghost Blade (poly carb) or Switchblade2/ Technique as apposed to what i am used to with SP'sCan be fished very similarly to plastics- change it up: double hops with longish rod lifts then left to settle/pause, quick rips then pause, constant slow or fast roll. get a feel for what the vibe is doing, they all like different retrieve speeds and techniques3/ @ what depth do they best work shallow flats up to a few metres deep- change weight and material to alter sink rate and depth4/ and other other factors that may be of some helpPlay with the tow point location if they have multiple holes as even a few mm difference can drastically change behaviour of vibe. ENJOY!Any help appreciated Regards

  3. Howdy all' date=' anyone know where I can get these from (pictured below)? Rod Sleeves. I saw a few guys with them on the weekend, they were different colours and had metal eyelets at the top.I have found some on the Bass Pro Shop web site in the USA but once you pay $40 for postage ist not worth it.Cheers ;)[/quote']They are called Stick Jackets, the mesh material expands/contracts and grips the rods pretty well. These may be available in SA in the near future as my mate is looking into importing them.http://www.mudhole.com/Shop-Our-Catalog/Rod-Cases_2/Stick-Jacket-Spinning-Rod-Covers
  4. I have had success with whiting and even gar! on ecogear PX45F and rebel Pop-R's in the smaller size. these are two of the most popular and successful top water baits for whiting. Great spots to try are where tidal creek drain onto flats- the whiting school here and grab food draining out of creeks so are really switched on to grabbing floating prey. great fun!this one came on a px45:Posted Image

  5. All OK to order mate! Rob is in adelaide and shipping daily, just spoke to him ;) Also, if you sent an email via a 'free' provider it may well have been sent to spam. Rob always replies quick smart to any enquiries.Cheers

  7. I have 'lived' in that gorge for 34 years (spent most my childhood down there). there are a few tracks that would be ok for two people an a yak on a trolley, if you dont mind a walk. I used to get trout and gudgeons regularly- I actually prefered it before they flooded behind the dam- some of my old spots are now 5 metres or more under water...

  8. mylureshop.com are based in SA. They stock both Tung Fu sticky tungsten putty that can be re-used, and also have Pontoon 21 Suspend Dots in various sizes. I had a look at the Suspend dots at the recent SABT and I am gonna have a play with some of these soon.
