  1. Sorry to revive an old thread, but I just wanted to weigh in on the subject. I've been using Lanolin grease for years and it works a treat. It seals, protects, and makes cleaning a breeze after a fishing trip. It's also non-toxic, unlike most of the cork sealing products, and doesn't change the feel of the cork.

    Fg knot

    It's one of the best.

    Lures and rust

    I wouldn't bother trying to maintain the current trebles, singles and split rings, just replace them. If you wash and dry your lures after each use you shouldn't have any corrosion issues.

    Shimano Nano px

    Samurai rods are a class above anything Shimano Australia has to offer, same goes for their warranty.
  5. They recently replaced the northern ramp in Thomas Humphreys Reserve, along with adding a pontoon. That's my ramp of choice if I'm not heading to open waters.
  6. I got a Versus Meiho VS-3080 Tackle case.
  7. Pflueger just released the new model Trion, $140-160.
  8. I would look at the new Shimano Sedona 5000 FE. It's better across the board, ratio, drag, spool capacity, and it's 35g lighter.

    Motor options

    It's the right time to get a new engine, a number of manufacturers are offering savings.
  10. I'm not ignoring science. Fluorescent components (cloth) will emit light while being exposed to ultraviolet light, and phosphorescent components (cloth, eyes, feathers, sinkers, tape) will emit light after being exposed to ultraviolet light. If you're shining an ultraviolet light on a jig before casting it out the only thing you're going to do is activate the phosphorescent components. You don't need an ultraviolet light to do this as fluorescents, incandescents and LEDs emit more than enough ultraviolet light to activate them. As for ultraviolet reflective components, such as Shimano's Keimura cloth, that's self-explanatory.
  11. As i said years ago, money always wins.
  12. The point is that the phosphorescent materials in jigs do not require an ultraviolet light to function.
  13. All that does is activate the light reactive parts of you jig, which can be done with any light source.
