Not much help I can give you mate with the tackle but I'll bump it up for you and hope one of the Aussie carpers can help you.To be honest though I'm pretty sure that they buy in from europe
seen a review in a mag once of about 10 coated hooklink materials and after 24 hours every single one of em floated so i wouldn't bang any of em out without something to pin it down
plod in brum have long memories,nearly 30 years and birmingham and leeds are still having to play at lunchtime today.totally kills the game does lunchtime kick offs
lol.to be honest i only really use one rig.no need to use any other where i go.don't really like pop ups and just use a coated braid unstripped.coots make me uneasy
