SWAMBO returned from her Oz trip & I got some good head...............s

SWAMBO got back safely, I am so glad,  :hnthnt: .


She had a good trip and I managed to find some tackle shops in her way  :blush:  and I ordered these lure heads and she paid and collected them for me,


The first 2 are a flat faced lure total length 75 mm, drilling is offset so should duck and dive like a looony.


No 3 is a small jet head with a slant cup face, should make plenty of action, overall length 45 mm
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

I also got some solid cup face heads 40 mm long, which will also be a bit looony I think.


I was being very strict about what I bought but exchange rate versus a very old bottle of 15 year dimple haig, I now have some Pakula mini sprockets, zippers and flusi's ... ho hum


I think that is TA defined :craz: (clap)

The range of available skirts for the jet heads is not brilliant, the size of the head where the skirt goes on is 18 mm . I've tried Solly's and WA but they don't have a great range, any ideas where I can get say Yo-zuri skirts from around here?


the urge is getting to me  :blush: yet again

You know you have a tackle addiction problem when you go to to a clothing store and hesitate to pay for a tshirt on sale but would gladly spend 10x that amount on tackle in a flash
Shivaan a shirt cannot bring as must joy as some new tackle  :hehe:
Don't know about you guys, but I use old t-shirts to fish in, which means I don't need a new t-shirt, but one always need new tackle :hehe:
While some fish for a living, I live for fishing

What UA shirts available? At what cost and how do we get?
