The Hooked up Magazine Daiwa Baitjunkie Review!!

Post by purple5ive » Thu Dec 03, 2020 6:17 pm

G'day fellow Fishing victoria Members.

As you have already seen from my previous snapper reports. i have been flogging the Daiwa Baitjunkie plastics quite a bit.

As soon as Daiwa announced them on their online product release Event earlier this year i was keen to get my hands on some.
And as soon as they were released i got quite a few for myself, infact one of the first to get it from my local. but i couldnt fish it straight away as we were in lockdown still.

As i was waiting for lockdown to end i was approached by hookedup magazine asking if i wanted to write an article for them.
i was asked to give them a few options of what i could do for them, while waiting back for a reply with what they wanting to do we made it out of lockdown and i was out hunting reds. They were happy for me to do a review on the baitjunkie plastics as i was already testing them out myself..

here is the end result in the December Issue of Hooked Up Magazine.
I had to provide the photos as well as a written article for the magazine.

You can pickup a copy of the Free Magazine in most good Tackleshops Australia Wide.
i know a few of our members are a bit remote, so if you would like a copy of it please let me know and i will source one and mail it out to you.

ps.. All plastics were purchased by myself for the review and not sponsored by anyone..

Cheers

Thanks guys.
Yeah this one is very special to me, it's not everyday that you can feature in a printed magazine that's published Australia wide, something that is running out of fashion in this digital age..

Hooked Up Magazine is available online.

https://www.hookedupmagazine.com.au/category/magazine/

The online edition tends to lag a little, compared with print.
