Bone Espybarra 176F Arrives

The Bone Espybarra 176F is a multi-function floating glidebait constructed from extremely durable ABS plastic

It features a mid-joint section and comes with three interchangeable tail types that produce different swimming actions.

The default glide tail gives the Espybarra a wide side to side action most anglers are familiar with in glide baits. The extended paddletail changes the action to a more subtle side to side wobble with an enticing paddle at the end of the tail to trigger strikes. The Fluke tail gives the Espybarra the widest side to side sway when you need to get the most action in the shortest distance. The tails are easily interchanged by pulling the tails downwards.

The Espybarra 176F is also versatile when it comes to buoyancy with a chin weight eyelet fitted to that anglers can add as much or as little weight as they like to reach the depths they need.

The Espybarra is so realistic, you'll think it's a real baby barra and at 176mm long and 61g in weight, it can be cast and fished off just about any set up you like for barra, cod or flathead.

 

ATC Vulture 80/81

The ATC Vulture is a brilliant low profile baitcasting reel that is available in left and right hand retrieve models.

The Vultures main body is constructed from T6061 Aircraft Grade Aluminium and Fibreglass Composite material to give maximum performance and function.

Internally the Vulture features a hyper forged copper alloy main gar that provides extremely smooth cranking and is the base for a powerful 6kg of maximum drag pressure.

Right out of the box the Vulture comes with hybrid ceramic casting bearings that allow the Vulture to achieve unprecedented distances as well as accuracy while reducing backlashes and bird's nests. The carbon swept handle with customised EVA knobs is attractive and functional.

Featuring ATC's signature V-Shaped line guide to further aid casting distance, the 7+1 ball bearings give the reel an overall smooth performance that is a delight to use. With a 7.3:1 gear ratio, this baitcaster is a real all-rounder that is tough enough to take on big fish, yet light enough to fish finesse styles where necessary.

 

 

Duo Tide Minnow 200 Lands

We've just received the first 6 colours in the Duo Tide Minnow Slim 200, a big lure aimed at even bigger fish.

Already boasting one of the essential shallow flats lures in the Tide Minnow Slim 140, the 200 has been designed from the ground up, not just made bigger.

This is important because Duo demanded the lure achieve all its goals while retaining all the amazing features of the Tide Minnow Slim range. This is achieved by the Tide Minnow Slim 200 having had the height of its body adjusted to reduce air resistance as well as the perception of size.

The lip has been fixed into the lure to create a very sharp action that fish love, while a brass weight is located just behind the lip for perfect lure balance. Additionally two 6mm tungsten balls and a 6mm stainless steel ball are located in a track that allows these balls to roll to the tail during casting for extra distance and stability in the air, and then roll forward when the retrieve starts to give the lure an ability to hang in to the water like few other long minnows.

Duo don't just make lures, they craft them.
