My Bud Sarel got his first shipment of Bahama lures in and they are some of the best made lures i have seen so could not help myself. The dorries and hopefully a billy or two will not be able too swim past these this December.
Those look really pretty!!

my good lady will be visiting Australia April / May next year, so what lures can you get there that you can't get here that are worth buying?
when I die, may my wife not sell my fishing tackle for what I told her I paid for it... and I have bought more, a severe case of TA

Dodger, I got some awesome Shimano stickbaits that I haven't seen in SA as well as a few other Shimano lures from Bluewater tackle. Apart from that and a few bits and pieces, our big tackle stores have better stock and are WAY cheaper!!

Just a BIG thanks to Shag and Ryan Hansen for getting my auto-pilot commissioned. It's the first Evolution that's been done in SA so we had a small learning curve, but i'm pleased to say all is sorted now!!

Also had the VHF linked to the GPS, as well as the Fusion sound system connected through the MFD so everything can be controlled from the MFD.
 
Will link the i-Pad to the MFD when i'm home in December!!

Awesome service by Shag 'n release and Durban Yamaha!! Thanks guys!!

Saved a handfull of bucks by fixing my remote gates myself  so am getting myself a Stradic 5000 tomorrow  :-) as my son seems to have taken over my one.
A bad days fishing is better than sitting at home moping.

I couldn't agree more, nothing like a bit of decent bottom, where did you get them from?
