My fellow anglers and friends,<br />

So what’s new? Well, we tested a few lures; the OC Craft Code and Classic<br />

Bluewater Lures with good success. We’ve also played with some new reels,<br />

rods, bags, etc. and in this issue we share with you the good stuffs and left out<br />

those that didn’t make the cut.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are also new product launches by Pflueger and ZCraft Muso Jigs. Pflueger<br />

recently launched the all new Pflueger Supreme XT reel of which looks<br />

good and feels good too. As for the ZCraft Muso Jigs, we will be putting them<br />

Abu Garcia Veracity Pro<br />

Part 1<br />

Series: Veracity Pro<br />

Model: VERPC 602 MH A<br />

Length: 6’<br />

Lure Wt.: 1/4-1oz.<br />

Line Wt.: 10-20lb<br />

Configuration: 2 pieces<br />

So, you want to drive through the woods fast and get<br />

to your friends at you secret fishing hole somewhere in<br />

the forest. Forget the pickup truck. A horse would have<br />

done better. Take the rally ready Volkswagen Golf GTi<br />

instead. Oh... ok. My bad. This is not a car magazine.


11<br />

30 Ton Graphite<br />

What I am getting at is this; while it may be fine<br />

and dandy to bring the old favourite tough looking,<br />

thick, muscular, but floppy fibreglass rod to battle<br />

the 10kg plus giant snakeheads (toman), a 30 ton<br />

carbon graphite rod will do much better as it is stiffer<br />

with better rebound power. One of them is the<br />

Abu Garcia Veracity Pro.


Sinister In Red<br />

<strong>The</strong> Veracity Pro comes in red. Not just any normal<br />

kind of red. It comes in blood red. It looks like a long<br />

vial of blood, perhaps making in the perfect rod for<br />

vampires. For those of you who faint at the sight of<br />

blood, this rod may very well be your kryptonite.


13<br />

American Design<br />

Jokes aside, the Veracity Pro looks good. Not to<br />

flashy. Not too much bling. Just nice in my opinion.<br />

It comes with good quality EVA grips, black metal<br />

(not a music genre) butt end cap, blood red painted<br />

reel seat, with black and silver thread windings.


Quality Components<br />

Completing the package are high quality components<br />

from Fuji. <strong>The</strong>y include Fuji’s tangle free guide<br />

system of which allows for better casting distances<br />

and provides less friction between line and guides<br />

thus reducing line wear.


15<br />

Fuji Reel Seat<br />

Another important component is the reel seat. <strong>The</strong><br />

Veracity Pro comes fitted with Fuji reel seat that<br />

holds the reel securely in place. If you have encountered<br />

reels going loose mid way through a fight with<br />

a big fish you will understand the need for a high<br />

quality reel seat.


Lab Test<br />

Reel: Abu Garcia Revo STX<br />

Line: Berkley Fireline<br />

Poundage: 20lb<br />

Leader: Berkley Trilene Big Game 40lb<br />

Back at our lab we put the Veracity Pro through the<br />

pressure test with 20lb being the target. Securing<br />

the line to an anchor, we pulled the rod backwards<br />

keeping the angle at about 45 degrees, tightening<br />

the drag, reeling in line, and pulling again until we<br />

thing got scary. <strong>The</strong> rod touched 20.7lb.


17<br />

Test Thus Far<br />

Thus far the Veracity Pro has proven to hit the marks.<br />

It does come with good quality Fuji components, it<br />

looks sinisterly nice, and it has decent power. However,<br />

we were unable to have it tested in the field for<br />

now. We’ll stay tuned for part 2 in the next issue.

OR Craft Code Lures<br />

When it comes to catching fish, the lure you use and<br />

how you use it is important. You may have good rods,<br />

super smooth reels, tough and almost invisible lines, and<br />

your fish finder is beeping like a cheap broken car alarm;<br />

but without a good lure, your chances of catching any fish<br />

would be really low.


21<br />

Replicating Good Lures<br />

Good lures catch fish and it is no secret that they<br />

get replicated. Makes sense right? Who on earth<br />

would want to replicate a lure that does not catch<br />

fish? Thus comes the OR Craft Code lures. <strong>The</strong> OR<br />

Craft Code lures are a replica of the M Blue Code<br />

lures (or could it be M Blues Code).


Nice Swimmer<br />

With a few Code lures in our hands we decided to<br />

take them swimming at a nearby pond. Using light<br />

tackle we got the code flying out to very good distances.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y cast easy and well. <strong>The</strong>y swim really<br />

well to with a tight wiggle.


23<br />

Would Fish Eat <strong>The</strong>m?<br />

We may like the way it swims but what about the<br />

fish? Twitching them just outside some underwater<br />

weeds did the trick. Pissed of peacock bass had a<br />

field day hitting the Code. Or was it the Code having<br />

a field day taking hits from the peacock bass...<br />

Hmm, whatever. <strong>The</strong> code still won.


Summary<br />

Yes, we all want lures that catch fish and good<br />

branded lures cost a bomb. Well, if you don’t mind<br />

using replicas then the OR Craft Code is a lure to<br />

consider. It swims well. It has proven itself to be a<br />

lure that fishes can’t stand and want to hit. And it is<br />

“pocket safe.”

Classic Bluewater Lures<br />

<strong>The</strong> Classic Bluewater F120 lures were launched<br />

last month here in <strong>Malaysia</strong>. <strong>The</strong>se Australian lures<br />

are made for saltwater fishing being famed straight<br />

swimming high speed trolling lures. Yippee! since it<br />

is a proven saltwater lure we decided to take it out of<br />

its environment.


29<br />

Well Built<br />

<strong>The</strong> Classic Bluewater F120 lures are well built with good<br />

cosmetics. <strong>The</strong> body is heavy walled and they are double<br />

welded together for extra strength. <strong>The</strong>y are fitted with a<br />

one piece through wire frame for better integrity.


Quality Components<br />

<strong>The</strong> Classic Bluewater F120 lures are fitted with 3X strong<br />

Permasteel treble hooks by VMC. <strong>The</strong>se hooks ensure<br />

durability and the much needed strength especially since<br />

it is a saltwater trolling lure of which is targeted to catch<br />

hard fighting fishes. <strong>The</strong>y also come with Superflex HD<br />

Stainless steel split rings.


31<br />

Field Test<br />

Since it was monsoon we decided to test it with freshwater<br />

predators. <strong>The</strong>se lures are made for trolling and<br />

thus they do not score high points for casting. However,<br />

they swim really well holding tight and straight. Yes, they<br />

catch fish too.


Verdict<br />

<strong>The</strong> Classic Bluewater F120 lures are good performers.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y swim fast and tight when trolled. <strong>The</strong>y swim straight<br />

too. Although they are made for saltwater trolling, freshwater<br />

predators take them too.

Abu Garcia Revo Toro<br />

Ever handled a power tool such as drill? A normal<br />

drill can only do so much. For more power a hammer<br />

drill will make the DIY guy drool. <strong>The</strong> Revo Toro<br />

S is more like a jack hammer. What’s the difference<br />

you may ask. Well, drill make holes. Jack hammers<br />

demolishes surfaces.


35<br />

Pearly White<br />

<strong>The</strong> Revo Toro S could very well get featured in Star<br />

Wars. It looks like a reel the Storm Troopers would use. It<br />

comes with pearly white side plates and black, well, everything<br />

else. It is larger than your average bait casting<br />

reel and when it sits on your hands, it looks somewhat<br />

like a big robotic frog (meant in a nice way).


Power House<br />

It may look cute (hence the big robotic frog statement).<br />

When you turn the handle it feels smooth.<br />

But when you put it into battle mode, the jack hammer<br />

sleeping inside comes to life and you feel like<br />

you’re riding one heck of a bull. <strong>The</strong> drag is powerful.<br />

Abu Garcia claims 25lb.


37<br />

Why Such A Reel?<br />

Low profile reels do have limits. And when anglers<br />

want low profile reels to do more, something has got<br />

to change. Abu Garcia did so by increasing the size<br />

of the reel and everything else inside. This gives us<br />

a reel with line capacity and power of larger round<br />

reels but in a smaller package.


Looking For A Fight?<br />

What kind of a monster would you want to battle with?<br />

Well, for freshwater application the giant snakehead<br />

comes to mind. No I am not talking about those little<br />

10kg brutes. I am talking perhaps 18kg upwards<br />

nuclear submarine types that could easily drag you<br />

into the snags or bust your low profile baitcasting<br />

reel.


39<br />

Salty Gladiators?<br />

It certainly would work well with saltwater brutes the<br />

likes of sailfish, trevallies, etc. I wouldn’t call this<br />

reel a gladiator slayer. No, not this. For that, it has<br />

a brother. However, the Revo Toro S certainly can<br />

and will subdue many a gladiator.

of parts or sections. To do so, these parts are connected<br />

together either through sewing, gluing, or hot<br />

pressing. Whichever method chosen, it is essential<br />

for the seams to be sealed in order to be waterproofed.<br />

<strong>The</strong> RodFord RFC dry bags come with sealed seams.


Like A Backpack<br />

<strong>The</strong> RodFord RFC dry bags are designed to be carried<br />

about like a backpack. It has got two padded<br />

carrying strap as well as back ventilated padding<br />

that provides for better comfort. Should you decide<br />

to grab it and go, there is a handle with rubber grip<br />

that you can hold on to.


45<br />

Compartments<br />

<strong>The</strong> RodFord RFC dry bags come with two netted<br />

side pockets that can be used to carry anything from<br />

water bottles to torch lights, etc. It also has a front<br />

pocket that for storage although it is not waterproof.


Reflects Light<br />

When camping out at night in a jungle where the environment<br />

is dark, the reflectors at the front (below the<br />

front pocket) of the bag comes into handy. With a little<br />

light, these reflectors will reflect the said light helping<br />

the bag to stand out and in sight.


47<br />

All In All<br />

Well, the RodFord RFC dry bag is easy to use and is<br />

great for keeping your belongings dry. Furthermore it<br />

looks great and is easy to carry.

Z Craft MUSO Jigs<br />

Z Craft recently launched the new Z Craft MUSO<br />

Jigs. <strong>The</strong>se “butterfly type” jigs are well designed and<br />

built. Cosmetics wise, they are coloured pretty well<br />

too with laser type colours, Active UV colours, and<br />

glow in the dark luminous paint to attract fish from a<br />

wide variety of depths.


65<br />

Designed By <strong>Angler</strong>s<br />

MUSO jigs are designed by Z Craft field testers to provide<br />

better control and action. It uses a tuning method<br />

known as the “EDGE” technology that has shaped the<br />

MUSO in such a way that gives it a fish like swim action<br />

through the currents.


Like A Bait Fish<br />

MUSO is designed to respond well to light and subtle<br />

movements both upwards and downwards and this<br />

allows it to look like a baitfish hovering about in the<br />

current. While doing so it also vibrates and weaves<br />

occasionally.


67<br />

Targeted fish types: Pelagic and bottom feeders<br />

Weight: 15g, 20g, 30g, 40g, 50g, 70, 90g, 110g, 130g,<br />

NEW<br />

Launches<br />

New Pflueger Supreme XT<br />

When it comes to Pflueger, I feel that if a reel<br />

manufacturer were to make a reel lighter than theirs,<br />

they get pissed off and get down to making another<br />

lighter reel in the said reel class. Here comes the<br />

new Pflueger Supreme XT and it is the lightest reel in<br />

its class.


83<br />

Good Looking<br />

<strong>The</strong> new Supreme XT is certainly a good looking reel.<br />

It comes in a dark grey body and rotor that looks somewhat<br />

metallic. Maybe it is. My eyesight has wasn’t<br />

what it was. It also has gun metal chromed rotor covers<br />

on its rotor, and areas of the body.


Nice Orange Lining<br />

<strong>The</strong> spool comes ported and has nice looking metallic<br />

orange lining that gives it a somewhat futuristic<br />

look. <strong>The</strong> spool is also braid ready which means<br />

that backing line need not be used with braided lines.<br />

<strong>The</strong> spool comes with three rubber linings that allows<br />

braided lines to be held in place.


85<br />

Lovely Handle<br />

<strong>The</strong> handle comes with a sporty carbon fibre shaft<br />

that looks good and saves on weight. <strong>The</strong> handle itself<br />

is EVA supported by metallic orange washer and<br />

screw cover. While the design may not be new it still<br />

looks good especially with the metallic orange lining<br />

and gun metal colours.


87<br />

RigidiTy Is Key<br />

<strong>The</strong> magnesium body of the new Supreme XT is rigid<br />

especially at the reel foot area. No one likes a reel that<br />

flexes during the battle with a brute. Reel foot flexing<br />

not only makes fighting the fish uncomfortable. It also<br />

reduces one’s confidence; not what you want during<br />

the fight of your life.


Well DEsigned RoTor<br />

<strong>The</strong> rotor is made of magnesium too just like the body,<br />

of which helps with the weight reduction. Unlike the<br />

body, the rotor does have a little bit of flex. In terms<br />

of smoothness, the rotor rotates smoothly and is well<br />

balanced.


89<br />

Drag Power<br />

<strong>The</strong> new Supreme XT comes with sealed carbon fibre<br />

drag. Sealed drags protects the drag from dirt that are<br />

in the water such as little particles from wood, vegetation,<br />

etc. It also gives protection from corrosive saltwater.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y come with a max drag of 8lb, 10lb, 12lb,<br />

and 14 lb depending on model.


Corrosion ResisTanT<br />

Bearings<br />

<strong>The</strong> new Supreme XT comes with 10 corrosion resistant<br />

stainless steel bearings that offers smooth operations<br />

and more importantly protection from the elements<br />

especially if the reel is to be used at sea.

Lure Fishing Basics<br />

LipPart 3<br />

Bill Or<br />

Crankbaits come either with a bill of which is also<br />

called a lip, or they come without one. In this article<br />

we will discuss about the bill or the lip of which plays a<br />

very significant role in the action if the lure..


93<br />

Manipulating<br />

Hydrodynamics<br />

One of the reasons for lures to have a bill is to use<br />

the resistance of water to manipulate the lure’s actions.<br />

Imagine standing in a pool and with your palm open<br />

and fingers close, push the water with your hands. At<br />

certain angles the resistance become either lighter or<br />

higher. This helps manipulate the lure’s actions.


Big Or Small<br />

You’ll notice that lures come with bills of various sizes.<br />

Some a big almost half the size of the lure and some<br />

are smaller. <strong>The</strong> bigger the surface of the bill the higher<br />

the resistance to water. Why the difference in sizes?<br />

When the lure is being cranked, a downward force is<br />

created. This force brings the lure down (called dive).<br />

<strong>The</strong> bigger the bill the deeper the dive.


95<br />

Bill Angles<br />

Another thing you will notice is that certain lures come<br />

with the bill set at a different angle. Some are set horizontal<br />

to the lure. Some are set somewhat at a 45 degrees<br />

angle. and some are about 90 degrees. Changing<br />

the angle affects the direction of which the downward<br />

force comes from. This in turn helps with stabilizing the<br />

lure, and gives the desired action.


Shapes<br />

<strong>The</strong>se bills come in various shapes. However, in general<br />

there are two main shapes and they are the round<br />

bill and the square bill.


97<br />

Rounded<br />

Bills<br />

One of the more common bill shapes is the rounded bill.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y have a larger surface and a thus a higher down<br />

force. <strong>The</strong>y are mainly used with deep diving lures.<br />

<strong>The</strong>se lures scrap the bottom creating commotion and<br />

thus gets a whacked by a pissed off predator. <strong>The</strong>re are<br />

also round bills for shallow swimming lures.


Square<br />

Bills<br />

Another type of bill is the square bill. Square bills have a<br />

smaller surface and they normally run shallow. Square<br />

bills are good at deflecting snags but this does not mean<br />

that it is snag free. When they hit a snag they sort of<br />

bounce off it or get deflected off it.


99<br />

Other Shapes<br />

Other bills are the coffin bill. While Square bills have<br />

2 edges, coffin bills have 4 edges resembling coffins<br />

used by vampires as shown in vampire movies. <strong>The</strong>y<br />

work pretty much the same as square bills. And there<br />

is the triangular bill which allows the lure to be fished<br />

slowly somewhat like smaller round bills.


To Note<br />

What bill size, length, or design you choose to use is<br />

generally determined by how deep or shallow you want<br />

to fish. <strong>The</strong> action will mainly be determined by the design<br />

of the lure. So the next time you shop for lures<br />

or choose lures for a trip, do give these words a little<br />

thought. Cheers...

All About Hooks:<br />

Part 3<br />

HOok<br />

Types<br />

When it comes to hooks the choices are a plenty<br />

and can get quite confusing. Hooks come in various<br />

forms or types for a host of different purposes. With<br />

this issue let us take a look at some of the types of<br />

hooks that are used with soft baits.


103<br />

Worm<br />

hook<br />

Unlike what the name suggests, worm hooks are not<br />

really made to hook real worms. You could but they are<br />

designed to rig soft plastic worm baits. <strong>The</strong>y can also<br />

be used to rig soft plastic fish such as minnows that are<br />

slim but still mainly used for worms.


<strong>The</strong><br />

Bent<br />

Shank<br />

<strong>The</strong> shank of the worm hook is bent somewhat like the<br />

hand crank of a car jack. <strong>The</strong>y are bent that way to rig<br />

soft plastic worms properly without deforming the them.


105<br />

Rigging<br />

This is done by inserting the hook into the soft plastic<br />

worm somewhat the length of the shank before the first<br />

bent of which is right after the eye of the hook. <strong>The</strong> hook<br />

exits the bottom front of the worm and is reinserted into<br />

the worm again at the body section the length of the<br />

hook shank.


ReadY<br />

To Fish<br />

<strong>The</strong> soft plastic worms and worm hooks are used in<br />

quite a few types of rigs such as Texas Rig, Tex-posed<br />

Rig (with hook point exposed), and Carolina Rig.


107


General Soft Bait<br />

Hooks / Carolina<br />

Rig Hooks<br />

<strong>The</strong> design of the general soft bait hooks or Carolina Rig<br />

hooks are somewhat like the worm hooks with the bent<br />

sank of which looks like the hand crank of a car jack.<br />

<strong>The</strong> difference between the general soft bait hooks and<br />

worm hooks is that the width of the gap. <strong>The</strong> gap of the<br />

general soft bait hooks is wider.


109<br />

Round<br />

Shank<br />

<strong>The</strong> shank of the general soft bait hook is rounded after<br />

the bent section at the eye of the hook. <strong>The</strong> shank then<br />

curves into the bent and goes all the way to the point.<br />

Due to the rounded or curved shank the gap between<br />

the hook point and the shank is wider.


Usage<br />

<strong>The</strong> general soft bait hooks are used for all sorts of soft<br />

baits from worms to fishes to frogs, etc. <strong>The</strong> way of using<br />

them is similar to that of the worm hook but they can<br />

be used to rig up thicker soft baits. <strong>The</strong> soft baits are<br />

usually rigged weedless.


111<br />

Stay Tuned<br />

Well, if you are new to soft bait fishing, you now know<br />

what hooks to get and how to use them. So go out there<br />

and catch lots of fish.

Get Your Kids Fishing<br />

An Initiative By <strong>The</strong> <strong>Asian</strong> <strong>Angler</strong> Magazine<br />

Fishing is a very healthy sport.<br />

As anglers we enjoy fresh air, we<br />

experience nature, we improve<br />

our analytical skills, we absorb<br />

vitamins from the sun, we expend<br />

our minds, we learn about the<br />

environment, etc.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are so many benefits to<br />

fishing and we should reduce our<br />

kids addiction to video games,<br />

computer games, playing with<br />

mobile devices, etc. We should get<br />

them to interact more with our<br />

environment and teach them a<br />

thing or two about life and living<br />

life.<br />

With this in mind we hope to<br />

encourage you to take your kid(s)<br />

By Amirul Irfan<br />

Year End Fishing<br />

Hello everyone!<br />

Time really flies. In the blink of an eye, the end of 2015<br />

comes and <strong>2016</strong> arrives. 2015 has been great for me. I<br />

broke my personal Striped Snakehead record 3 times this<br />

year. Here is my second personal record snakehead that<br />

took the 2.4” Berkley Powerbait Saltwater Slinky Shad.


It took me around 20 minutes to fool this fish with multiple<br />

lures. After switching to the Slinky Shad, it was finally<br />

fooled and landed. This fish was hanging around the same<br />

area for about 2 weeks. As the monsoon season iss beginning,<br />

snakeheads will start to hang in grass for breeding.<br />

125


This juvenile snakehead was caught on a rubber frog.<br />

Just a few minutes earlier I lost a bigger one because I<br />

did not pay attention to my frog. Paying attention to your<br />

frog is important when fishing with rubber frogs to ensure<br />

perfect hookset.


Here is my younger brother with a solid snakehead<br />

on the Zman MinnowZ in space guppy. <strong>The</strong> flakes<br />

really work well for snakeheads especially when it is<br />

sunny. From our experimenting we have found out<br />

that lures with flakes tend to get more bites as compared<br />

to lures without flakes.<br />

127


Here is my youngest brother with a juvenile Striped<br />

Snakehead on a 2” black Berkley Powergrub. We<br />

searched for snakeheads by observing scattering<br />

groups of baitfish and concentrating casts in areas<br />

where baitfish congregate.


Here is a snakehead caught by my younger brother on the<br />

Zman MinnowZ. Notice the emerald blue ventral fins. <strong>The</strong><br />

colours of the snakeheads are beautiful now as it is their<br />

breeding season.<br />

129


<strong>The</strong> Berkley Powerbait T-Tail Minnow rigged on an under<br />

spin worked well to fool this little snakehead and a<br />

few more that managed to shake the hook. <strong>The</strong> blade<br />

adds flash and vibration, perfect to get snakeheads to<br />

bite when conditions are tough.


Here is my latest personal record snakehead at 46cm and<br />

780 grams. It gave a powerful fight but I managed to counter<br />

it with the Surecatch D-Legend rod and the new Abu<br />

Garcia Promax 3.<strong>The</strong> Promax 3 handled long casts and it’s<br />

high ratio helped to get the fish out of cover quickly.<br />

131


Released to grow and I hope I will be able to catch<br />

it again. 2015 has been an awesome year. I have<br />

achieved most of my goals, except catching a Peacock<br />

Bass. I am also happy to see more junior anglers on<br />

social media. I know that there are many more junior<br />

anglers out there. If you are a junior angler, keep up the<br />

good work, never give up and always remember, safety<br />

first.

Crosspoint Waterproof<br />

Crew Sock<br />

Don’t let cold wet feet ruin your outdoor fun! Crosspoint<br />

Waterproof Socks solves the soggy toe problem and<br />

keep your feet dry while fishing, hiking, etc. in the rain.<br />

Our socks are fully waterproof thanks to 3-layers: a wear<br />

resistant knit exterior (feels like a regular sock), a waterproof<br />

breathable Artex membrane, and a Coolmax FX<br />

moisture wicking anti-bacteria lining. <strong>The</strong> result is a sock<br />

that feels like a sock but protects like a rain bootie.<br />

Fun Things<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>Asian</strong> <strong>Angler</strong><br />

Weirdest Baits<br />

I am not sure if you’ve caught fish with things that are<br />

generally not a fishing bait before. Quite a few anglers<br />

have. I have caught fish with the skin of Mandarin oranges<br />

before but there are more bizarre things used by<br />

anglers.<br />
