Yamashita and Sumizoku are nice jigs if you can get them on sale, otherwise the price is hard to justify.

He'll accept, then use messenger to sort out the details.
He's a decent bloke, with a massive range of jigs. Make sure you get a red foil black cloth, ripper jig when it gets dark.

Re: Rip-off squid jigs vs high quality squid jigs
Sooooo, decided to try and persuade parents to get me some Rui Jigs on ebay. They said no...
So I went to Southern Sportfishing (a tackle shop in black rock) and picked up 2 5$ jigs. I compared them to my yamashitas and the only difference i found was the angle of the sinking jig, with the yamashitas being around 35-40 degrees and the el cheapos being around 45 degrees. Would this make the difference between squid and no squid?

Might not have it on eBay, but He'll probably have one or two in stock.

Re: Rip-off squid jigs vs high quality squid jigs
Here's a couple worth considering. Free postage should be the deal-maker!!
