I'll definitely be out on Saturday! Thanks to Jonathon for telling me the rogers/dufferin shop, I've bought quite a few new lures and Im gonna be there all day testing them all! :victory:

see you guys there!

Glad to see they worked out for you. What did you end up getting?

I ended up binge buying quite a few stuff I got... 1 bag of split shots, 1 red/white dardevle imp spoon, 1 johnson silver minnow, 2 williams spoons (warbler and buly)... ended up costing me $26 (im a student so thats a lot)!!

Nice haul!

Make sure you don't start buying muskie lures, most of them are over $26 EACH!

oh wow... thats insane!

If I have another $26 to spare, I'd buy myself a new spool of fishing line... the ones I've been using is a 20/30/40 lb mono-fluorocarbon line... I dont really know how heavy it is cause it's AT LEAST 5 years old!! (I think its probably more like 7) There isn't too much age damage cause of its thickness, but i'm thinking its probably time to change it...

$26 each?...Those Zalt Pike Lures cost me $45 each, I'm only using them on water that hasn't got many snaggs, I don't want to be losing my 4 favourite Lures!

You gotta remember that most lures are double the price in the UK Woody! What do you guys pay for a regular Rapala lure?

[Woody]

That's the going rate for the Zalt's, they're made in Europe and all over Europe they're the same price (give or take a couple of Quid!)...The Rapala's vary a lot because of the variations in Lures, the little one's that are split in half in the middle (can't remember the name!) are about $7 in your money to buy, they're not expensive at all i think. The Zalt's are so expensive just because of the sheer size of them i think, as well as being well made/painted!
