I love it when new toys turn up in the mail! :-) Just got these sent to me to play with, not sure about here in NZ, but I will give them a crack, but sure keen on them for the islands! :-)  Little R2C Tungsten Vibe lures. I reckon the mangrove jacks will murder them! :-) |

Yes to the rattle, they are only light, probably under 20gms I think, just inshore casting lures really, and no, sadly i do not think they are going to be in our shops.... this was by way of a "nyah nyah, look at what I have got!" type post :-) However, I guess if there were enough interest, the wholesalers may be interested in bringing others in I guess. Not sure about that though. That is why I didn't put this in the "New Products" thread, coz they ain't really new products at all, just some nice pressies I got :-) Every so often it is nice to have a little gloat eh :-) RH, I am gonna be using a lot of smaller lures flicking around the shallow bommies in the Solomons in January, so all these neat toys will no doubt disappear into the recesses of various reefs over time :-) |
