    So because an angler has the number #9 infront of his name, this makes him more successfull then I? Is this what you are trying to imply Birko?

    If I was to be more successfull, would I have to compete in Tournaments and beat his scores - is that how it works Birko?

    As for aussie culture... have never seen much of that in my visits to Mackay, though it seems to exist everywhere else I look. Perhaps you'd might to like to review your words on me when we meet one day - how does that sound?

    Cheers

    What about 3 of the top 4 in the rankings .......
    Anyhow - its a senseless argument ....... slick rigs work & continue to work, try telling the next person that lands a barra on one that they dont

    What an absolute stroke of Luck Nath, found a Slick rig lolling about on the Camp Kitchen, in a moment of apparent stupidity you attached it and a silly Barra was fooled into thinking it was a snack.......Nahhhhh that can't be right it had to have been a Fluke, apparently their crap.
    Good Mates....Good Food.....Good Fishing....Priceless

    That looks like a nice / well set up slick rig - the owner must have been devastated to loose it

    Sounds like a childish rant to me. Add that to your previous post full of half hidden snide references, and I find my opinion of you going down hill rather rapidly.
    Grow up Theo, the crap you are going on with in this instance is just that - crap, and Im over it!

    Brian - dont worry about it ....... when someone (s) become so narrow minded about a product .... then so be it - If they choose to ignore the most successful barra lure on the market - that is their loss.

    Re: Barra V Xrap

    Yeah, sorry, I "paused" my-self for a while to make sure I wasnt "reaction biting", so, moving on.

    Ive got 3 busted SXR-12 Rapalas hanging in the shed at the mo, 2 with the rear body split, and one with a broken bib off a dropped metery not last trip, but one before.
    I'll snap a pic tomorrow and email over.
    Problem is, with Halco 4XX fish rings and VMC 6X #2 trebles, they hang absolutely perfectly in the water, best Ive seen to date. Good action, cast like a bullet, easy on the wrist on a twitch pause retreive, good range of colors from fluro (worked well in the dirty water lately) to natural olive I'll be pinging when it gets a bit cooler/cleaner..

    So if u do send off the dead xies isn't it probable the Rapala will just come back and say. " Sorry boy's u r modifying these lures with upgraded splits n hooks they are designed for hook or ring failure b4 having there guts dragged out through their assh*les"

    Or something to that effect

    Duh........... Pete.

    Yup I here ya Poit I got not modded up and it's wrecked but I reckon the same never the less

    Re: Barra V Xrap

    A built in safety feature Poit, treble failure rather than structual failure - I like it!
    They could use it as an advertising feature:

    "Our lures will never break because our terminal tackle will let go first on a big fish" lol.

    Doesnt even have to be a big fish, didnt Nath strip out the bum on one on a mid 50 fish?
    Your right, I can see their response now - youve moded the lure so warranty void!
    No rear tow point failures to date with the Richos for me. They just require a little more work to get the suspend thing happening.
