BCS are no longer the JM agents for NZ as announced via Facebook by new agents Hunting Fishing Camping of Australia. All enquiries should be made to Coxy of HFC.

Sorry to hear about this Chris, I think JM has benefited from the work you have done in bringing  mechanical jigging to NZ, including the heavy metal  DVD series.

Onwards and upwards, more time to concentrate on promoting other brands and expanding Jigstar :)
Look forward to seeing some quality Jigstar gloves, apparel, fighting belts etc.

Wow. That's insane. I believe a lot of people bought the JM gear due to the excellent service you gave Chris. Hope this means that you will be able to bring another range to Nz so we have even more choice at great prices

that's rough.
 
agree with what has been said above. BCS have been brilliant to deal with JM gear. Chris you have done a lot for jigging in NZ and JM have benefitted from that hugely.
 
Go the Jigstar!!!!!

Couldn't agree more! Chris W has helped bring jigging to people like me it is now my most preferred style of fishing & will support local wherever possible.

Thanks for the support but it has been all you guys who have made it happen for JM and jigging. Time to up the ante with some new Jig Star products soon. Kiwi anglers deserve better for less.

I hope you were given the respect you deserve Chris - if you found out via social network ,well that really says alot about the people involved.
 
On another note I 100% agree with the sentiment above...The originals did alot for jigging in NZ and look at what it has become.
 
Kind regards

Wha?? I'd be dumbstruck if their future sales here ever match the past, NZ's just too small to conduct business like that, the customers who are serious enough about their sport to buy fishing gear at that level all listen to the same grape vines.

Anyways this might have been a bigger deal 5 years ago when there wasn't as much available in high-end jigging gear, but now JM has many close rivals who'll be keen and ready to shuffle in.

All the best for the future Chris!

JM - who are they again? I own 2 Synits, 2 Jigstars, 3 Accurates and now have 2 JM PowerSpells for sale ..... probably have to sell them on Ebay as there won't be much demand in NZ.....

All the best Chris, I'm sure you'll make good with your other and future ventures.

Good luck to you chris and the team at BCS.
You brought jigging to the people of NZ......the heavy metal DVD is what inspired me to jig and no doubt many many others.Wink ......I think JM will regret that action.
Once the idiots turn up..Im outta here...No time for Drama Queens.
