Couple new toys that just joined the Nepptune stable....
 
 
Sea Falcons from 40 to 120 grams, Souls Airmatic 120 gram, 2 x Garyukubo Black Sheep ( these are ridiculously beautiful!! ) FISHERMAN Delta, Carpenter Gamma and Katobbi ( Thanks Ginga ya legend ) Yambl Dinners and some Souls Fritz and Bombers for casting to our Kings when they eating tiny Anchovies on SB gear....
 
I guess its true what they say, those of us who don't get to fish enough, just collect tackle!!!
TO RIDE, SHOOT STRAIGHT AND SPEAK THE TRUTH.

Orions..gotta love them I dont think there is a more simple and hardy lure.
 
 
The rest of the mob that will see warm water...(if I lose that many Gamma's I will give up fishing and take up motor sport) 
 
 
 Bro you got the gamma bug baaad. You've got enough stick to start a gammercially fisheries operation to cover the entire ridge of the kermadec trench. How those lil' baby Smith ru____ something a rathers go? Overseas they seem popular as a lot of people rave about them, especially in work ups.

"gammercially" I like it! lol.
Re the Ruhnbo's I gave one to Boulder he got a nice king on it.I think they are popular in the states where the tuna are meatballing etc...to be honest I havent really tied them on much,maybe once or twice.
Its funny but yesterday we were swapping out Carpenters for dirty cheap poppers cause thats what was killing them...god these fish have no taste

Falco - Gotta say that I had a moment of madness when I pushed the button on that lot, but none the less, stoked to have them in hand and hopefully fishing soon... got invited on a 10 day GT camp out mission to a remote sand bar/spit in Moz next week, but F&*king work responsibilities means I probably can't go... serious trip of a lifetime, with Earl from Hells Gate, and his buddy, and me.... Anyway, Murphy crashed that party the b@stard!
 
Funnily enouigh though, the Black Sheeps were about $35 US cheaper than what the Gammas were selling for in the US... with the US $ being so low, and the Yen so strong, the Gammas that were available at Saltywater Tackle ( for all of about 3 minutes before selling out ) were way pricier than the Black Sheep's which were older stock I guess...
ANyway, not cheap, but hella pretty! :)
 
Still got a long way to go to catch up to your Gammercial enterprise mate... wanna trade a Gamma for a Black Sheep?? :-)

Shame about the trip it sounds like a dream alright,hopefully Murphy has an accident and your luck changes....
I saw the aftermath of the Saltywater spree,there were 'sold out' icons everywhere lol..that was amazing!
I will have to think about the swap mate,Im tempted,I may be able to drop it off in person in may next year.
