Geez glen, is that just some of the jigs you bought? aint you gonna show us all
i went to Hongkong early last year, and yes their tackle shops are quite different - the ones that stock the "goods" are generally rude and somehow not will to deal with the public - very weird. in some instance, I had to "pretend" to be a dealer in order to get in their shop (more like a stock room) to have a look... <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/zorro.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':boat:' />
Their stocks are very different from here. its basically all jap domestic models, and i didnt find any familar fishing rods. was lucky that i found some nice daiwa reels. they do bulk deals so if you order over like $1000 you get 30% off the total <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wh' /> picked up some luvias for about $240 each with the killer conversion rate, along with enough gama hooks and jigheads that would last a long time <img src='http://www.squidfish.net/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
