| Mavericks due here any moment - Updated as we have been out using them |
5:05 AM, Nov 05 2009 |
I am so excited - the new Daiwa Saltiga Mavericks will be here any time now. The fact I am getting a 4500 for myself could have something to do with the level of excitement. It is going to be brilliant match for my new Patriot Design Sailfisher (and yes -even the colours match).
Update.
We have just come back from fishing the Ribbon Reefs off Cairns. I used an S-Extreme Maverick 4500 and Duncan used the 6500. We were very impressed pulling up some great GT's and many other species - though the trip will be remembered for the many very angry fish that took delight in blowing us away.

| Shimano Twinpower SW Reels NOW in store |
12:48 AM, Oct 09 2009 |
The very very long awaited Twinpower SW is here. We have the 5,000SW, 8,000SW and 10,000SW in the shop now.
Born of the same engineering pedigree as the world’s number one threadline – Stella, the TwinPower carves its own niche amongst the range of ultra-high performance reels that Shimano has become renowned for.
The TwinPower will handle anything thrown at it and continue asking for more, displaying many of the same qualities that make the Stella so successful and Shimano a pioneer in heavy saltwater sportfishing and jigging applications.
Built on the “SR” philosophy (smooth, silent, strong and reliance), the TwinPower gets its unbelievable cranking power and strength from a heavy-duty cold-forged drive gear paired with a Brass pinion, near frictionless efficiency from intuitive design and reliability from decades of research and development unrivalled by any other manufacturer in the industry.
All these features are housed in a water-proof hybrid aluminium body which is then super-charged by the same Hyper-disk drag found in the Stella SW. Less wear on parts and effortless operation are thanks to no less than 11 Shimano bearings. Each reel also features AR-C spool design, Aero Wrap II, Rigid Support Drag, one-piece bail, Super Stopper II, Power Roller and Floating Shaft II.

| Shimano Talica 2 Speed reels just arrived |
12:41 AM, Oct 09 2009 |
The equivalent of a Soviet tank cross Ducati motorcycle – the all new Talica delivers a high-speed, castable lever drag that will fast become a favourite of sports fishers around the world due to its compact physique and high capacity versatility.
A one-piece cold forged (for extreme strength) and machined Aluminium frame is treated with a proprietary surface process for cutting-edge corrosion protection. Shimano then added a lightweight cold forged aluminium spool, oversized HEG (High Efficiency Gearing) gears, waterproof carbon drag system and 6 S-ARB bearings for super slick operation.
Capable of ultra-high drag pressures, the carbon drag system has been waterproofed (when engaged) to handle big sea sprays and splashes which become inevitable when fishing the stones or offshore dropping jigs.
The range features 4 sizes – 8, 10, 12, 16 available in both single and 2-speed gearing (single speed models available first quarter

| Proud Parent Moment |
10:45 AM, May 02 2008 |
For those of you who know Victoria Point you will know the lake beside the restaurants and cinemas here in Victoria Point. Tonight we went to get dinner from Indique (excellent food by the way). We had to do the compulsory stop to look at the turtles in the lake. Lachlan, our 3 year old, bent down looked through the rails very intently then turned around and in an extremely excited voice said "Daddy, there would be fish in there! We need our rods!" He then proceeded to give us a demo of how he would be winding in his big fish. Looks like all that training is paying off.

The boys are really impressed with the quality of the rods hence why the big range.
