WHAT'S NEW?
Wow,
we've got lots to talk about, and not much
space to do so. Seeker just brought several
new Super Seekers to market, which we have
listed on our
Super Seeker page. They have also
introduced their new Pinhead Series of rods
which are here at our shop now. These will be
posted on a new Seeker page. In coming weeks
Seeker will be introducing their Rail Boss
series of rods. These are a 'glass rod, with
rail pad on the grip,
 made
for fishing heavier lines. Again, when these
come into our shop we'll post 'em as a new
page within the Seeker section of our website.
Rounding
out new products to boast, our new
Yellowtail
Coffin Nail series of stickbaits, floating
shallow and deep divers, and the BIG deep
divers have arrived. To compliment these
offerings we've also added two
new
poppers to the Coffin Nail series, and
these are nothing short of tremendous.

Tactical Fishing Shirts
Sunburns are uncomfortable and a health risk with long term
exposure to the elements. I well know that one, having spent a
good amount of time and a chunk of change having skin cancers
burned, frozen and cut off my carcass. A year or so ago I came
across a new type of fishing shirt, made from very light
weight micro-fibers that offered an sun protection rating of UPF 50+, the best you can get. These shirts are quick drying,
lightweight, breathable, stain resistant and actually wick
moisture/sweat away from your body to keep you dry and
comfortable. You stay cool and dry, and
you're protected from the sun's harmful effects. If you spend
a lot of time on the water, these things are a basic necessity
in my humble opinion. The shirts are made for us by Mojo,
owners of the patented fabric rights. They carry a $35 MSRP,
but given their importance to anglers...and the fact that our
shirts carry our logo so we get a bit of advertising benefit,
we offer them at $29.99. Do yourself, or someone you care
about a favor and grab 'em a couple. They are very much well
worth the money. At present we have these shirts in men's
sizes, we will have women's sizes in the future.
(sorry for the lack of a nice looking gal
modeling these shirts...I'll try to do better in the future)

Okuma
Krios, Komodo & Cedros Baitcasters
 NEW
MODEL, Here NOW!
Three new 2012 reels from Okuma, the Krios
Komodo and Cedros baitcasters. These guys are on a big time
roll, from smaller baitcasters to the big guns, Okuma is
producing some of the best fishing products we've seen. I
sure wouldn't want to own stock in the bike company these
days, the sleeping giant woke up and they are introducing
more quality fishing gear than any other manufacturer.
Krios
For folks
looking for an affordable quality baitcaster, this Krios hits
the nail on the head. You've got some great features to
bring some added pleasure to your fishing. We've received
the Krios right hand retrieve reels, with lefties coming

rate, Alumilite construction with die cast aluminum frame,
A6061-T6 Machined aluminum spool and a multi-disk drag
system with micro-click adjustments. The new reel has plenty
of features to help folks new to baitcasters improve their
casting performance. Chief among those features is an
adjustable magnetic cast control system. You also have an 8
position internally ajusted centrifugal system. So, inside
and out, you can dial this reel in for exactly the type of
casting you need, and as you improve the reel can grow with
you to provide all the "freespool" performance anyone would
want. You've also got six ball bearings to assist that spin,
and a very comfortable handle. Nice new reels, very good
performance, and excellent values, all of 'em. The reels are covered by
Okuma's 1 year limited warranty.

Chaffing Springs
 Chaffing
springs are a very useful item, they help
prevent line damage when your leader or other
line comes in contact with metal. It reduces the
chance of a break-off, simplifies rigging, and
is a basic necessity when rigging up trolling
lures or fishing heavier lines with bait for
larger grade fish. If you are rigging up some
lures, you need 'em. And, if you are heading out
on a long range trip targeting the BIG TUNA,
you'll absolutely need some for use securing
your hooks to your line/leader. A crimp
connection will prove far less bulky and
restrictive than use of the typical heavy San
Diego knot for rigging a hook bait. They have
become a basic long range rigging necessity.
Over the past several years they've become more
and more hard to find. Sevenstrand used to offer
'em, then when they were purchased by Pure
Fishing the product disappeared. That left us
with the old, bulky, plastic type springs which
were a bit of overkill in terms of size and not
as nice to work with. Our springs are made from
stainless steel, for long term durability.
Frankly, I will use these over and over, have
some in my long range bag that I've used for
years now. We sell these 10/pack at $1.99.
Toro Tamer
Surface Series Lures
Here we go
with new magnum sized poppers folks have been
asking us for the past couple years. These new
lures are made from wood, aged and cured. All
are properly made, thru-wired for strength and
durability with a unique holographic finish that
will get noticed. Four different styles, four
different color patterns. And, at a value price
given our control of production and
distribution.
The lures are large by any
standard. This size lure is made for the big cow
sized tuna, and is also used to great effect for
fishing giant travalli in more distant waters.
That's where this type of lure really
originated, and it found a new application
that's proven very effective. These lures have
some heft, are best used with heavier tackle of
50-100# and up, feel free to go way up! Again,
they are made for the big ones. These are high
quality products with specific design features
to improve your catch. The thru-wire is 2.0 mm
stainless steel for strength. The rigged lures
feature VMC 8527 5/0 hooks which are 6X strong,
and connected to 100kg + split rings. All lures
make use of rear weighting for distant casts.
You can sling 'em a mile, and more time spent
swimming back to you results in more
opportunities to get bit. This type of lure
generally sells for something darn close to $50.
Since we have control of production, and we
bypass several stages of markup we are able to
bring these lures to market at prices that are
nothing short of incredible.
 Two
Styles: 2 Swimmers, 2 Chuggers
Our Archback Swimmer is 22 cm in
length and weights in at about 120 grams (about
10 inches in length and weighing 4.75 ounces
with hooks). The Mondo Swimmer is scoot
through the surface as well, with a slightly
different action. It also comes in at about 10
inches and weighs almost the same as the
Archback. The Big Mouth Jet Popper is an
innovative chugger, that blows a lot of smoke!
Our 10 Pin Popper is a more traditional
design, chugger face and rear weighted like the
other lures for greater casting distance. It's a
long and skinny 24 cm in length and weighs a
whopping 160 gm. or 5.6 ounces. These things are
made to cast well and far, and they are rigged
to handle tough fish.
