Welcome to our Weekly Specials.
Several dandy deals this week, new product introductions, closeouts
and more. The rebate offer from Accurate on the Fury and Boss series
reels ends this month. It's a great opportunity to grab a great reel
and save some money in the process. The new Fury series in
particular really shows great improvement over the 2014 line, much
lighter, better cosmetics, improved anti-reverse and freespool
performance. And, they are very well priced and quite competitive
with other manufacturers reels...with one important difference,
they're Accurates! That does indeed count for something, better
machining, not cast, better materials, and performance. We have a
nice offer on Daiwa's popular Lexa series, a deal which provides you
a new travel rod! Van Staal's 2014 reels are being replaced by new
models, so you have an opportunity to save up to $200 on those we
have in stock. New custom built RainShadow rods, excellent inshore
sticks. And, we have a nice close out offer on Wild River's tackle
bags and Surf Explorer travel rods. Finally, we have two very nice
lure series to introduce for 2015. Toro Tamer's Metal Swimmers offer
a well proven design regular visitors of this site will recognize.
Color patterns have been updated on this productions, quality hooks
used, and the very successful design maintained. The new Toro Tamer
poppers are also showcased this week. Again, the design was updated
on this series to provide more "pop" on the retrieve, hooks were
improved - VMC singles on the two largest sized lures, and a new
smaller size introduced. Great lures, terrific price!
Thank you for visiting our Weekly Specials!
Great Stuff, Mark Smith

New ICAST INTRODUCTION
Goes a bit beyond expectation
- The folks at Accurate announced some new changes to their line of
reels at ICAST in July, and these new reels incorporate all those
positive changes as well as a few other improvements which go beyond
the planned update to their line. These are new reels, some new design
enhancements such an upgraded anti-reverse bearing, upgraded machining
and polishing, nicer cosmetic touches, and new colors just in time for
the holiday season. Accurate has produced these new cosmetics as a
holiday special offering - like their limited production pieces from
past years. I'm really hoping they decide to keep this look going,
they are subtly stunning and darn clean in cosmetic appearance, but the
beauty is much more than skin deep.
PLEASE NOTE, THESE ARE THE THREE NEW MODELS
ACCURATE WILL BE SELLING IN 2015 AND BEYOND: FURY, BOSS EXTREME AND
DAUNTLESS. These are the new reels AND the new cosmetics for the
future. The plain silver colored reels are the old cosmetics, the
2015 models are as pictured here... The
new bearings being used have undergone extensive testing under load,
and there's confidence they've found a bearing that won't fail.
Accurate has also shaved off considerable weight from all models
shown, a big drop in weight from the previously chunky Fury, less of a
drop (though still considerable) on the BX and Dauntless series reels.
Some very nice small things were changed too, like the new Lever -
much nicer feel - and the new preset knob treatment - again a very
nice looking cosmetic upgrade from the basic treatment done in the
past. The new Accurate reels are stunning in appearance, weigh less
than previous model, use a better AR bearing and have taken the
freespool enhancement offered on the Dauntless series to the whole
line! The new BX and Fury reels spin like the Dauntless - meaning
these reels have the best freespool performance in the business, and
their drag performance leaves nothing more to be desired.
Here's the run down on the three series of casting reels Accurate will produce
for 2015 and well beyond:
FURY - FX SERIES
First off, the FURY Series offers serious anglers Accurate
performance at a VERY COMPETITIVE price point. This is achieved by
simplifying design - these are single drag reels rather than twin drag
design which is what you get when you upgrade to their Boss and
Dauntless series reels. A true dual drag reels is costly to produce,
between Accurates patent and the cost, little reason for other folks
to attempt the technique. (Avet does have a dual drag series, their
TRx reels - but they go for about $800). The Fury gets the most significant cosmetic
improvements, now it's polished and it's weight has dropped
considerably with the nicer machining. These also get the new AR
bearings, no dogs, only the improved bearings for the anti-reverse
system. These are beautiful reels that do more than their competitors
can in terms of materials used and drag capability. These reels
will fish up to 20 lbs of drag measured at strike. Also, the freespool
performance has been upgraded - same enhancement first incorporated in
Accurate's Dauntless design. The new Fury series offers high useable
drag levels, they spin like tops and are similar in that respect to
Accurates Dauntless series - nothing spins quite as well at this
point in reel development.

BOSS EXTREME - BX SERIES
The new BX or Boss Extreme Series of reels incorporate the
improved AR bearings AND make use of Accurate's patented Twin Drag
system. With the Twin Drag the reels can attain higher drag
capabilities with half the drag pressure applied to either end of the
spool. Less heat buildup, smoother drag performance, and more drag
then you'll need on reels of this size. In terms of numbers, these are
made to fish with up to about 30 lbs of drag, and do so well without
binding issues. Now we also have the Boss Series reels in both single
speed and the TWO SPEEDS ARE BACK IN THE LINE! Also, the freespool
performance has been upgraded - same enhancement first incorporated in
Accurate's Dauntless designs.

FREE BRAID OR 3 PIECE TRAVEL ROD - up to $129 Savings
The new Lexa
from Daiwa represents one of the finest
inshore low profile baitcasting reels on
the market. Incorporating a
tremendous oversize six element drag
stack you get up to 22 lbs. of drag from
a wonderfully sized reel which holds 300
yds of 30# super braid line! This reel
also deals with the harsh effects of
saltwater intrusion very well.
At ICAST
2013 Daiwa introduced a new
400 size - in several
configurations.
There are
three basic models with the 2014 introduction of the 400 size. There
are both lefty and right hand retrieve
models, and there are options for gear ratio,
two different handles, and they have lefty
and righty options! They really tried to make a versatile reel that
would accommodate almost any style of fishing you do.
Daiwa also offers the reel with a power
handle in their HSL-P model, the lower
geared (though still fast) 6.3:1 retrieve verses the paddle handle
which is offered on the faster 7.3:1 versions. In all, there are 21 versions of this
series of reels. However for us salty
types 15 models stand out in the 300 and
400 size.
The travel rod features a durable hard case
and cork handle with trigger grip and strong yet light weight
graphite construction. Length is 7 feet 6 inches. We'll include a
lighter action 12# rod with the model 100, heavier 20# version with
the 300 and 400 size reels. (no substitutions).

Raptors are a more refined, and higher drag
capacity series of reels from Avet. These take their whole
game up one notch, providing truly big fish capable reels in
compact sizes. Their machining is better, their operation
better, and their drag capacity much greater than their size
would suggest. There is less side load on the bearings as a
result of increased drag capacity. Casting is flawless, and
all models with the exception of the HX Wide Raptor come
with Avet's super performing Magnetic Cast control. They are
the best this innovative manufacturer produces, and they are
made to outperform all other reels on the market.
MXL Raptor pictured below.
Pictured below, the powerful and compact Avet JX Raptor.
Pictured above left, the JX Raptor. Drag the mouse over the image to
change view. Pictured above right are three models of Raptor, the
little SX, MX, JX/LX and the HX. All Raptors feature dual drags, magnetic
cast control (with the exception of the wide), ratcheting lever,
extended handle length and extended line capacity compared to
the standard models.
The newest and smallest Raptor is the tiny SXJ. The SXJ Raptor has all the
features you'd expect from a member of the Raptor family,
dual drag power (on one side of spool), two speeds, magnetic
cast control, excellent casting characteristics and high
drag capability. For the Raptor version of the SXJ, Avet
added a reel clamp to the Raptor, the standard SXJ does not
come with the clamp (that's the only model in Avet's line
without a reel clamp).

Van Staal created the concept and emergence of high end spinning
reels near the turn of this century. They became the reel of
choice among discriminating surf anglers on the East Coast, and their
acceptance grew to a national and international level. Their one
problem was funding, and in the early 2000's that caught up with them.
The
firm was sold, to a much better funded outfit, one we've all grown up
with from the freshwater side of things, the present owners are the
folks from Zebco. Zebco further their move into quality saltwater gear
with the purchase of Fin-Nor not long after acquiring Van Staal. We've
followed them since, and in 2011 pulled the trigger and brought in the
line after seeing that Zebco truly is committed to building their
saltwater presence, and the quality of products they offer. Zebco has demonstrated
their ability to expand upon the lines they've purchased during the
2000's, and in 2011 improved upon their acquisitions product lines
significantly as you'll note below...
VS Spin and
VSB Spin
Van
Staals well known all machined aluminum
spinning reels are available with and
without bails. The bail-less design has been
favored within the surf fishing community,
while the bail design has more favor for the
offshore enthusiast. This a preferred manual
bail design, more
appropriate for higher test
lines and higher drag settings, both of which
these reels are fully capable of employing to
great benefit.
The VS series of
bail-less spinning reels are the originals,
offering a completely sealed water-proof body
and drag. They are made for hard core surf
fishing. Both VS and VSB (bail) reels offer a
fully machined aluminum body, flyer and spool
for no-flex strength, plus a huge machined
stainless steel spiral-bevel main gear for
long lasting power. The reels are completely
sealed with a water proof body and drag
system which allows hard core anglers the
ability to fish from the beach or right in
the surf. There are numerous videos posted
on YouTube showing guys actually burrying
their reels in sand and then pulling them
out and fishing! They are made for extreme
fishing, no doubt, and they've taken plenty
of HUGE fish from the surf or offshore - big
fish, one of our clients took a bluefin over
500 lbs using a 250 swimming a RonZ... VS
and VSB's feature a machined
titanium-nitride-treated center shaft and
titanium-nitride line roller allowing you to
fish either monofilament or braided lines
under the heaviest drag loads without wear.
For the VSB models, the bail is made from
solid nickel-titanium for superior strength
and durability. They use a massive
anti-reverse clutch, for rock solid hooksets.
With huge line capacities and the ability to
pick up 40 inches of line with a single turn
of the handle, there are few if any other
reels better built to deal with tough fish in
a tough environment.
The new 2015 versions of
these well proven spinning reels are now in our
inventory, so it's time to clear our shelves of
the 2014 production. That provides you the
opportunity
to purchase a great reel with a huge savings of
up to $200!

The
new Toro Tamer Topwater Poppers are now in stock! This 2015
new product introduction incorporates some excellent new
features. Similar to the CB Poppers we've offered for a few
years, these new surface lures improve upon the original
design. The head is round rather than triangular, the
results are greater splash - especially if you are fishing
from a larger boat which is higher to the water line, such
as a long range boat out of San Diego. The improved "pop" or
splash allows the lure to be worked more effectively.
Additionally, the new lures are available in three sizes
200mm (8"), 160mm (6.3") and a new smaller 120mm size
(4.8"). The larger sizes have proven very effective for tuna
and the new small size will find great success for those
fishing from the beach for Rooster fish, stripers and many
other species where a slightly smaller and lighter lure
proves effective. Lastly,
the
new lures feature a change in hooks. The two larger size
lures incorporate VMC in-line single hooks, the smaller 120
size popper makes use of trebles.
Specifications: The new poppers are available in three sizes 120, 160 and
200 mm (4.8", 6.3" & 7.9"), with weights of
50, 90 and 150 grams (1.5, 3.2
& 5.3 ounces).
Those are great
weights for casting, and the size is wonderful for most fish
you'll come across, from little schoolie tuna and tails to
some larger fish. There are no better lures out there from
any manufacturer in terms of construction and finish. If you
don't agree upon seeing these lures, I'll be glad to cover
their return - I'm that confident of 'em. They are far nicer
than the Braid pieces, nicer than YoZuri's, better weight
distribution than anything from any major manufacturer - and
they are tough!
Toro Tamer
Metal Swimmers
New 2015 Product Introduction
Toro
Tamer's Metal Swimmers are an update of an old
lure which we loved, but unfortunately went
away. It's based on an old Dymara jig from about
15 years back. The old lure was produced in
Poland, came to America by way of Canada. The
manufacturer went out of business, could not
offer the lures here at a reasonable price. They
were a big producer for me personally and that
was motivation to create molds for this
production. The lure was great for yellowtail,
with bass and tuna being among the catches that
the lures produced. The largest size also did
quite well on wahoo. Here's what makes the lures
so darn effective, it's their shape. There are
many similar lures on the market, but with
closer inspection you can easily see why this
design is more productive. They produce more
action on the drop. They can be fished on the
slide like a standard megabait type jig, but in
the cast-and-retrieve mode they are far more
effective. They produce an enticing flutter on
the drop. The body is thinner, with luminescent
belly, and there's a slight curve to the lure.
This can be easily increased or decreased by the
angler to customize the lures "fall." We've also
enhanced the rigging of these wonderful lures.
The ToroTamer Metal Swimmer comes with a welded
ring on the nose rather than a split ring, and
the hooks are upgraded in both quality and size
given the target species can be quite a bit
bigger than your basic bass or rockfish (which
these lures also handle quite nicely).
These
excellent lures are available in five sizes and
five color patterns. The lures are offered in
the following weights: 7, 4.5, 3.6, 2.3 and 1.6
ounces. Lure lengths are: 6", 5", 4.5", 4" and
3.5 inches. We use Mustad 3561ED 3X treble hooks on all
the lures, running a 1/0, 2/0, 3/0, 4/0, and 5/0
on the lures, from smallest to largest sized
lure. How do these lures compare to similar
products which are on the market? The Toro Tamer
Swimmers make use of better and more expensive
hooks than similar products, the rigging is
better with the welded nose ring - thru wired of
course, the lures are triple clear coated so the
finish lasts longer, and they catch fish better
given the enhanced shape. In summary, this is a
lure that no tackle box should be without.
RainShadow blanks have been
gaining a very supportive audience in the custom rod building
world. The firm that brings these blanks to market also is the
worldwide distributor for ALPS rod building components, guides,
reel seats, etc. They know rods, they are astute and dedicated to
bringing quality to the market. They have a very strong design
team at work, and their blanks show the knowledge gained through
listening to the most demanding rod builders in the world. As a
consequence of their listening they have a very broad range of
blanks in their catalog, made for specific purposes. We've been
hearing more and more from folks asking if we'd build rods from
these well proven blanks. Given some shortcomings in terms of
production from our traditional West Coast suppliers like Seeker
and Calstar in 2014 we decided that we should learn more
ourselves, pull on some blanks, do some talking to both anglers
and the folks behind RainShadow. We did our homework, and
thankfully we are associated with one of the better rod builders
in SoCal (SaltyDog) and asked him to produce several models of
rods which are made for our style of fishing.
We are taking our new
RainShadow rod project into two distinct areas: first traditional
offshore oriented rods and secondly high end inshore bass rods.
We've just completed the first build on the Inshore series rods,
to view the offshore models please

Inshore Rods:
We've
selected several of the most popular special purpose RainShadow
blanks for this series of rods. All have exactly the actions
desired for their particular line class and applications, from
light line casting pieces to heavier action swimbait specialty
rods (which have earned high marks from the buys focusing on
landing BIG calico bass and bringing 'em in through heavy
cover). Superior construction materials, excellent build quality
from Bill Havens (Salty Dawg), top notch components from
ALPS...these are rods which will provide excellent service for
years if not decades.

These lures are something to get excited about.
I sure did back in 2002 when I first saw and fished the lures.
Actually I didn't add them to our inventory until I started hearing from
friends. Tim Chen was the first guy to mention the lure to me. He had great
success with their wahoo lures on a 10 day trip
a few years ago. (He was also kind
enough to drop some of the wahoo over to my place after his trip.) Tim, caught far
more than his share, casting the lure forever on a Seeker 6470 with a Newell 533.
Between the flash and bubble trail produced by the spinner, the lures were HOT!
That was over 10 years ago, and the lures have been catching more
than their share ever since their introduction.
After
Tim's wahoo success, I started hearing about the lures from the
folks targeting tuna. I know of one boat that wouldn't let their passengers use the
product on their trolling rotations. (Party boats don't want one lure to get all the
attention on a rotation. I wrote about that private boat contrast on my Last Trip
report ...again back in 2002.) That was all I needed to hear to realize I needed to find the
$ to bring in the line. These things will get some attention. Well, I
did bring the lures in, and they've been one of our most popular
lures for tuna and wahoo ever since.
The
Catchy Spinner Jets feature an inline spinner, on ball bearings front and
rear. The lures are well put together, call it overkill. They are made of a
chrome
plated brass, stainless balls for the bearings. They are available in several weight and
size configurations. That's great if you're trying to take advantage of faster
trolling, or working a bit more of the water column. Maintenance is easy, just flush
and go. The lures also have some excellent skirts to complete the product, and
they're the right patterns too. The lure will produce on a wide
variety of gamefish. Tuna, marlin, makos
(in the 16 and 26 oz sizes), dorado and of course wahoo will
eagerly jump on the bait. Additionally, with the commotion these things create,
they'll also attract attention to other lures in your spread or use as a teaser to attract
a marlin to a drop back bait. At this point, the lure's a proven commodity.
Rigged lures come with double tuna hooks and are rigged up with Seaguar
Fluorocarbon.

all. This large tackle bag holds up to 5 3700 size boxes, with enough

fishing...or some tunes if that's your inclination. The audio speakers
are made to perform in the harsh boating environment. It's powered by an
AC transformer, 12V DC adaptor (included) or 4 D cell batteries (not

In
2012 we expanded the line to three
different line tests, an 8-12#, 15-20# and 20-30# class for both
spinning and conventional reel use. In late 2013 a heavier
30-50# rod was added to the line. For 2015 we'll cease
production of the lightest rod in the
series, so these are on a clearance price.
All other models are specially priced this
week.
These are very light and exotic travel rods for surf
fishing enthusiasts. Certainly it has additional applications,
but it's made for walking the beach and opportunistic fishing.
The rod is a four piece design, using the European Spigot
ferrule connections. It's 2.7 meters in length, almost 9 feet,
and now comes in a hard case for safe transport and storage. The rod can handle lure
weights of 20-100 grams. It's graphite and fiberglass constructed
for lightness, sensitivity and long term use. The guides are
lightweight, but capable of handling
Spectra lines. The handle
section is a bit long, in keeping with it's intended
application, and you can adjust the positioning of your reel to
optimize balance - easily moving the reel forward or back on the
rod. It's
parabolic action allows it to fish lighter and heavier and still
"feel" right, and now you have more choices for the
test being fished with the additional light and medium action
rods.
Lure weights and line
weights: The rods are made to load up best when used as
intended. They are light finesse type rods, not heavy surf rods.
Their bend is fairly parabolic, do just fine with braided lines
or mono. Each model is designed to fish their intended line test
- and this really should be specified in terms of drag load,
that's a more meaningful specification and predicts the bend of
the rod better. So, plan to set your drag at 25-30% of the line
test intended for the rod and you will enjoy the benefits of a
properly tuned rod/reel match. Lure weight varies by model, the
lightest rod matching up with lure weights of 1 ounce and under.
The 15-20 does very well up to 1.5 ounces, can push 2. The 25-30
is quite comfortable fishing 3/4 to 3 ounces, with 1-2 being a
very nice range. For the 30-50 1.5 to 4 ounces is a good range.
That model can do a bit higher but you should note how it's
loading up on your casts and adjust accordingly. These rods do
best with someone who has some experience and they travel very,
very well. They are not intended as boat rods, they are inshore
surf rods, and in that arena they represent some of the best
rods ever produced.
