My fellow anglers and friends,<br />
Being a magazine owner and editor I get asked all sorts of questions.<br />
One of them is why I do most of my field tests at commercial<br />
fishing ponds instead as they don’t represent the real world of<br />
fishing. Valid question this is and this is why.<br />
Field testing products out at sea or in a natural lake may be the real deal but we may<br />
not get accurate results since not all trips that cost a lot money yield results. Being a<br />
free magazine we do not have the liberty to spend and not get results of which simply<br />
means catching sizable fishes and have the tackle (being tested) tortured.<br />
This is why we field test often at commercial fishing ponds where fishes are large<br />
enough to put products through the test. What we basically want to find out is how<br />
these products react depending on the various specifications that the manufacturer or<br />
brands advertise as well as to see if the general basic conditions are met. Thus it makes<br />
more sense to test them at commercial fishing ponds.<br />
This is not to say that we do not test products in natural environments. We do and we<br />
do often as well but there are trips that end up without results or even the opportunity<br />
to test products as the fishes may not be cooperative or may not be large enough to give<br />
any form of challenge.<br />
Well, in the motoring industry while cars are tested on public roads they are tested at<br />
test tracks too such as the famous Nürburgring in Germany. <strong>The</strong> reason is that the real<br />
world may not present enough opportunities to test certain things and thus a test track<br />
is needed. <strong>The</strong> same thing goes to fishing.<br />
Thank you for your support and happy reading.<br />
Cheers,<br />
Phil<br />

Major Stix, <strong>The</strong> Colonel<br />
Series: <strong>The</strong> Colonel<br />
Model Tested: MSC6’3 ML (Casting)<br />
Length: 6’3”<br />
Power: Medium Light<br />
Line Weight: 10-16lb<br />
Configuration: 2 piece (offset/butt joint)<br />
Welcome to the world of Major Stix rods, a series of rods that<br />
marches in the light of the military. <strong>The</strong> Major Stix rods carry a logo<br />
that I would associate to the air forces, with models following military<br />
ranks. This time round we tested a model called <strong>The</strong> Colonel.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Colonel follows the styling of American bass rods with muscular<br />
butt sections tapering down towards the tip with a 65%-70%<br />
backbone. It has loads of power stored up in its blank of which gives<br />
superb fish battling control over to the angler.<br />
19
21<br />
Camo<br />
Handles<br />
<strong>The</strong> Colonel comes battle ready with<br />
orange camouflage handles. Take a<br />
closer look and you will two metallic<br />
red rings one of which comes with the<br />
brand (series) on it for a little bit of<br />
subtle bling. <strong>The</strong> rear EVA handles are<br />
contoured to give one a better grip.
23<br />
Weight And<br />
Balance<br />
Should you need to stop a fish from swimming<br />
into the snags <strong>The</strong> Colonel will do<br />
that for you. Should you need to yank fish<br />
out of cover <strong>The</strong> Colonel will do that for<br />
you. Should you want a rod that is lightweight,<br />
oh well, <strong>The</strong> Colonel is not the<br />
lightest rod around but it certainly is not<br />
heavy. Let’s just say that it is like the Ford<br />
Mustang in the world of cars and not the<br />
Ferraris.<br />
When it comes to balance, <strong>The</strong> Colonel<br />
is quite well balanced with slightly more<br />
weight up front at the tip section. Being<br />
a lure casting the rod <strong>The</strong> Colonel is perhaps<br />
made that way as we have our rod<br />
tips pointed towards the water most of the<br />
time while we manipulate our lures.
25<br />
Components<br />
<strong>The</strong> Colonel comes with Fuji components<br />
and my favourite Fuji Component<br />
here would be its semi micro guides. Using<br />
semi micro guides on an American<br />
bass rod styled fishing rod makes it look<br />
slimmer. Well, it’s most likely an illusion<br />
but it works and that adds appeal.
Lab Testing<br />
Back at our lab we put <strong>The</strong> Colonel<br />
through the pressure test to see how<br />
much it will take. <strong>The</strong> Colonel is rated<br />
10-16lb. 10lb is no issue for <strong>The</strong> Colonel.<br />
During our test we managed to get<br />
it passed the 16lb rating. It took a lot of<br />
effort and with safety measures in place<br />
<strong>The</strong> Colonel touched close to 16.5lb at<br />
our lab of which is about 0.5lb above<br />
rating.

Field Test
29<br />
For the field test we took <strong>The</strong> Colonel<br />
through air and land to a foreign<br />
coliseum where gladiator giant snakeheads<br />
roam. When it comes to casting,<br />
<strong>The</strong> Colonel does it well. But when it<br />
comes to battling the brutes, it certainly<br />
earns a Medal of Valor.<br />
<strong>The</strong> EVA offers a reasonably good<br />
grip while the reel seat holds on to the<br />
reel well. Its Fuji guides manages the<br />
braided line well while the rod manages<br />
load after load of pressure from<br />
the hard fighting brutes and exudes its<br />
own brand of power subduing fish after<br />
fish.
31<br />
Verdict<br />
When it comes to looks, <strong>The</strong> Colonel<br />
may not earn many points but since<br />
when do the military pay attention to<br />
high fashion <strong>The</strong> Colonel’s focus is on<br />
practicality and getting the job done<br />
well and that is where it excels in.<br />

rossfield<br />
By Philemon Foo<br />
-Men Rod
Testing Ground: Jugra<br />
Series: Xrossfield (Pronounced Crossfield)<br />
Model: XRFC-662ML-BF<br />
Length: 6’6”<br />
Lure Weight: 2-18g<br />
Line Weight: 5-12lb / PE 0.4-1.2<br />
Configuration: 2 Pieces<br />
Opponents: Dragon Groupers
If you find yourself staring blankly,<br />
with mouth ajar swooning over<br />
the Abu Garcia Xrossfield rod, note<br />
that many have done so before you.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Xrossfield is one incredible<br />
rod that looks really good but not<br />
as good as it feels.<br />
37
39<br />
<strong>The</strong> X<br />
Factor<br />
<strong>The</strong> X on the Xrossfield reminds me of the<br />
X-men, a team of mutants with special abilities.<br />
Which X-men would the Xrossfield be<br />
best suited to It is an elegant rod wrapped<br />
with Abu Garcia’s proprietary X carbon wrap<br />
and adorned with gold rings thus I feel that<br />
it is best suited to the insanely powerful telepath<br />
and scientific genius, Professor Charles<br />
Xavier also called Professor X.<br />
Made for the Japanese market, the Xrossfield<br />
looks simply amazing with carbon fibre<br />
sportiness and the carbon X wrapped that<br />
Abu Garcia designed (more on this later). Its<br />
black high quality EVA and gold rings adds<br />
to the elegance of the Xrossfield. <strong>The</strong> Semi<br />
Micro guides by Fuji further enhances the<br />
sexiness of this rod thus why it commands<br />
stares and complete mindlessness.
41<br />
Built To<br />
Perform<br />
<strong>The</strong> Abu Garcia Xrossfield is well balance<br />
and incredibly light of which is<br />
attributed to Abu Garcia’s X Carbon<br />
Wrap, a performance type of wrapping<br />
that allow the blank to remain<br />
light while enhancing its power and<br />
strength. <strong>The</strong> X Carbon Wrap improves<br />
torque and reduces twist to a<br />
significant level.<br />
When it comes to sensitivity, the<br />
Xrossfield certainly takes the cake with<br />
its ultra sensitive blank. <strong>The</strong> semi micro<br />
guides further enhances the Xrossfield’s<br />
sensitivity telegraphing vibrations<br />
from the lure, through the blank,<br />
and on to the hands of the angler.<br />
Every bump at the bottom is felt with<br />
much clarity.
43<br />
Fuji<br />
Quality<br />
Blank Stats<br />
<strong>The</strong> Xrossfield comes with a 60%<br />
backbone and it has good recoil<br />
power that helps with fighting<br />
the fish. It also cast really well<br />
with a tip that flexes well and<br />
shoots lures or in my case, soft<br />
baits to very good distances.<br />
Abu Garcia made sure that everything<br />
good went into the<br />
Xrossfield. <strong>The</strong>y come with Fuji<br />
SIC New Concept Semi Micro<br />
Guide System of which are<br />
lighter, tough, and proven to be<br />
able to manage braided lines. It<br />
also comes with Fuji reel seat of<br />
which holds reels secure it place.
Under Pressure<br />
<strong>The</strong> Xrossfield has a rating of 5-12lb. Since this<br />
isn’t our rod we were extra careful. We managed<br />
to get it up to about 7.6lb before calling it quits.<br />
It could probably touch 12lb but that would be<br />
inflicting the Xrossfield with serious amounts of<br />
torture especially for a Medium Light powered<br />
rod.
Field Test
47<br />
.<br />
Since Professor X wasn’t around<br />
to do the test we decided to take<br />
the Xrossfield to the Saltwater<br />
commercial fishing pond in Jugra<br />
(small coastal town off Selangor,<br />
<strong>Malaysia</strong>). <strong>The</strong>re the Xrossfield<br />
subdued some hard fighting<br />
dragon groupers and red drums.
49<br />
Impressive<br />
Fighter<br />
<strong>The</strong> Xrossfield is a joy to fish with. Being light<br />
weight and feeling good in one’s hands the<br />
Xrossfield certainly enhances the fun in fishing.<br />
It is like having a powerful and refined<br />
weapon in one’s hand. It cast really good distances<br />
allowing us to cover more ground fast<br />
especially while targeting the lazy grouper<br />
that usually sits in wait for a passing meal.<br />
Every bump is felt during the retrieve.<br />
When the brutes decide to hit, the Xrossfield<br />
goes into fighting mode instantly. It shows<br />
forth its powers and manages fight after fight<br />
really well. It has enough power to stop and<br />
turn various hard fighting brutes that were<br />
heading towards the water wheel. Impressive<br />
for a Medium Light rod.
51<br />
Verdict<br />
<strong>The</strong> Abu Garcia Xrossfield is<br />
certainly a high performance finesse<br />
rod that looks really good<br />
and is amazing out in the field. It<br />
is lightweight and very well balanced.<br />
Needless to say, I like it a<br />
lot and I want one.

<strong>The</strong>re are lots of fishing rods out there that can be used for<br />
dough fishing. So what’s really green, lean, not so mean, dough<br />
fishing machine Why, it is the Berkley Trout Dough series rods,<br />
a series of rods made specifically for dough fishing. <strong>The</strong> trout<br />
part... well... It’ll catch other fishes as well as you will see later on<br />

Brave Bold<br />
Design<br />
Have you heard of the term, “beauty lies in the eyes of<br />
the beholder” Using green even of different tones as<br />
the main colour of a fishing rod is like staring a bull in<br />
its angry bloodshot eyes before giving it a kick in its<br />
kahunas and then running for your life. A rod’s cosmetics<br />
play an important role. It means getting picked<br />
up or getting left behind.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Berkley Trout Dough come heavily in green being<br />
mainly mosaic design light green and dark metallic<br />
green threads, and metallic orange winding check. Its<br />
handles (split rear handles) are made of natural cork,<br />
ending with a rubber butt cap that sits a Berkley logo.<br />
A very bold design and a risky one.<br />
As the buyer you will either love it or hate it. For the<br />
designer, if the rods do not fly off the shelves due to its<br />
design the hunt for a job will be on his or her to do list.<br />
It is a risk and I sincerely hope that whoever who designed<br />
the Trout Dough series rods grabbed the bull<br />
by its horns, gave it the daring kick, and survived the<br />
dash of a lifetime.
59<br />
Rod<br />
Construction<br />
<strong>The</strong> Berkley Trout Dough series<br />
rod that we tested comes with a<br />
high glass content blank. It feels<br />
whippy and somewhat droopy<br />
towards the tip. It has a 30%<br />
backbone of which simply means<br />
that it will bend close to the<br />
fore handle. This means that the<br />
Trout Dough rod takes loads of<br />
absorption thus making it a good<br />
ultra light fishing rod.
61<br />
Weight<br />
And<br />
Balance<br />
Being built with higher glass<br />
content one would expect weight<br />
to be an issue but the Berkley<br />
Trout Dough series rod feels<br />
lighter than expected. Without a<br />
reel on the rod feels clumsy and<br />
tip heavy. However, securing a<br />
reel to it balances things and the<br />
weight diminishes (fishing position).<br />
If only the same can be<br />
done to humans then weight loss<br />
will be easy.

Pressure<br />
Test<br />
How much pressure would the<br />
Berkley Trout Dough rod take<br />
Back at our lab we managed to<br />
get it up to 5.5lb but it will most<br />
certainly do more. It takes a lot<br />
of effort to get it to 5.5lb due to<br />
its shorter backbone and we decided<br />
to stop. It felt as if we had<br />
just pumped our arms in the<br />
gym.
Field Test
65<br />
Nothing beats a field test and we<br />
decided to have fun at a commercial<br />
saltwater fishing pond<br />
in Jugra (small coastal town<br />
off Selangor, <strong>Malaysia</strong>). <strong>The</strong>re<br />
we threw it into the ring where<br />
dragon groupers and red drums<br />
awaited to unleash some torture.<br />
<strong>The</strong> dragon groupers obliged and<br />
in no time battles upon battles<br />
ensued. <strong>The</strong> Berkley Trough<br />
Dough rod took the sudden<br />
dashes of these groupers really<br />
well as expected with softer tip<br />
rods. It took more effort to control<br />
these finned brutes but rod<br />
fought well and gladiators were<br />
landed.
67<br />
Bad<br />
Hook<br />
Setting<br />
We did lose some fish due to bad<br />
hook-up. One of the disadvantages<br />
of having a softer tip is that<br />
it will take a lot more effort to set<br />
the hook. While the tip absorbed<br />
the sudden dashes of the fish<br />
it also absorbs the force of the<br />
angler’s strike thus some fishes<br />
were lost.
69<br />
Verdict<br />
Being green <strong>The</strong> Berkley Trout<br />
Dough series rod certainly stands<br />
out from the crowd however some<br />
may and some may not like the way<br />
it looks. Looks aside, it is a good ultra<br />
light (the model we tested). However,<br />
being an ultra light rod one has<br />
to expect it to have lower amounts<br />
of power and will need more effort<br />
setting the hook. Fighting brutes will<br />
require the use of more strength and<br />
effort as well.

Spying On <strong>The</strong> 2015<br />
Ryojin Limited Edi<br />
This Test Drive is different. You are<br />
about to see what is to come in the future.<br />
Just imagine being blindfolded and<br />
flown to a secret place to preview something<br />
that only a tiny group of people in<br />

peek at the 2015 Rod Ford Ryojin Limited<br />
Edition Reel.

75<br />
Good<br />
Looking<br />
<strong>The</strong> 2015 Rod Ford Ryojin reel is<br />
one good looking reel. When the<br />
curtains parted I thought I was<br />
looking at a Van Staal reel. <strong>The</strong><br />
spools caught my eye. <strong>The</strong>y look<br />
like solid brushed aluminium<br />
spools one with cut out honeycomb<br />
design and the other with<br />
cut out rhombus designs. Superb<br />
rugged designs that turn heads.
77<br />
Sporty And<br />
Tough<br />
<strong>The</strong> 2015 Ryojin will come with a toughen<br />
body and stem. Being a full metal reel the<br />
body feel solid and the stem is rigid. Being<br />
a prototype reel there are certain things<br />
about it that are not confirmed and one of<br />
it is the colour of the body.<br />
For the handle knob, the 2015 Ryojin will<br />
come with a carbon fibre chestnut designed<br />
handle knob. This adds to the outlook<br />
(cosmetics) of the reel. It also spins<br />
smoothly on this reel that I had the opportunity<br />
to play with.

79<br />
Smooth<br />
And Strong<br />
Drag<br />
Turn the handle and the rotor starts rotating.<br />
<strong>The</strong> rotation is smooth with very<br />
minimal friction felt. Such a feel is mostly<br />
found in high end, high priced reel. Well, I<br />
don’t know how much this new Ryojin will<br />
retail for as this is just a prototype reel and<br />
no one has the liberty to share such info.<br />
Unfortunately I do not have permission to<br />
bring this reel to our lab for further tests.<br />
What I can tell you is based on tests done<br />
at the location. <strong>The</strong> 2015 Ryojin has a powerful<br />
and smooth drag. We tested it by<br />
dragging a 5kg dumbbell weight / disc on<br />
the carpeted floor. It worked well.
Verdict<br />
While this unit is only a prototype I believe<br />
that the production models will<br />
be even better. So far the spools, drag,<br />
rotors, bail-arm and wire (of which are<br />
tough), handle and handle knob have<br />
been confirmed to be on the production<br />
models. I certainly want one.<br />
We will furnish you more information<br />
when the production reels have been<br />
confirmed.

Berkley Havoc Dev<br />
Berkley has for a long time worked with professional<br />
anglers putting together field experience,<br />
knowledge, and science making some of the most<br />
well known fishing products in the world. <strong>The</strong> Havoc<br />
range is a range of soft baits under Berkley that<br />
are designed by pros. <strong>The</strong> Devil Spear is the brain<br />
child of Michael Iaconelli aka Ike.

Alien Like<br />
Design<br />
<strong>The</strong> Devil Spear looks like nothing found<br />
in this world. If it were alive it would like<br />
the slug from hell. Anyhow, it is designed<br />
to attract and aggravate fish to attack. <strong>The</strong><br />
ribbed body is designed to stay sturdy and<br />
create vibrations while the larger / deeper<br />
ribs at the spear or tail makes the tail swim<br />
like crazy.
Field Test<br />
We tested the Devil Spear at the commercial fishing<br />
ponds in Jugra (coastal town just off Selangor, <strong>Malaysia</strong>).<br />
Because of its weight and streamlined design the<br />
Devil Spear cast really well. Of course the rods helped<br />
too.<br />
<strong>The</strong> dragon groupers loved the Devil Spear. We caught<br />
a few of them within a short time dragging them slowly<br />
at the bottom. <strong>The</strong> Devil Spear also proved to be tough<br />
and are able to withstand the bites of these groupers<br />
thus they can be reused over and over again.

Verdict<br />
<strong>The</strong> Devil Spear may look like an alien<br />
from some other planet but what’s more<br />
important is its ability to catch fish. What’s<br />
even better is that they are tough and can<br />
handle the bites of most fishes really well<br />
(in this case the dragon groupers) allowing<br />
them to be used over and over again.<br />

Berkley PowerBait Saltwa<br />
Here is a bait designed for rock fish fishing and<br />
while we don’t do rock fish fishing here, what we<br />
did was to take the Berkley PowerBait Saltwater<br />
T-Tail Shad to a commercial fishing pond in Jugra<br />
(coastal town in Selangor, <strong>Malaysia</strong>) to see how<br />
they performed.

Tail And<br />
Ribs<br />
<strong>The</strong> T-Tail Shad comes with a T-Tail<br />
or paddle type tail that wags like a<br />
happy puppy’s tail. Its body comes<br />
with ribs that gives it better flexibility<br />
and creates vibrations underwater<br />
that agitates fishes. Berkley has also<br />
strengthen the bait as a whole making<br />
it tough.

Fish<br />
Approved<br />
During our field test we landed a<br />
dragon grouper and a barramundi<br />
(missed one red drum due to a busted<br />
line). It was the last soft bait we tested<br />
and didn’t have much time no thanks<br />
to the change in weather. <strong>The</strong> T-Tail<br />
Shad not only catches fish, it proved<br />
itself to be tough having caught both<br />
dragon grouper and barramundi on<br />
the same bait (in that order).
Verdict<br />
<strong>The</strong> Berkley PowerBait Saltwater T-<br />
Tail Shad has proven itself to be a<br />
good softbait. Being made tough it<br />
catches more fish per piece depending<br />
on fish species of course.<br />

Ofmer Bolt 250SP L<br />
Type: Suspending<br />
Material: Plastic<br />
Weight: 19g<br />
Length: 130mm<br />
Recently I was invited to do some fishing in a<br />
place known to harbour large specimens of giant<br />
snakeheads and I decided to bring some fishing<br />
tackle along to be field tested. Amongst them are<br />
the Ofmer Bolt 250SP lures.

Minnow<br />
Design<br />
<strong>The</strong> Ofmer Bolt Lures are minnow designed with<br />
holographic laser colours that reflects light really<br />
well attracting predators. <strong>The</strong>y do look realistic<br />
(and quite pissed off ) as they come with 3D eyes in<br />
blood red.
101
103<br />
Weight<br />
Transfering<br />
System<br />
Within the Bolt are ball bearings that<br />
help transfer weight to the back during<br />
the cast of which allows the bolt of<br />
glide tail first towards its destination.<br />
This gives better distance as the Bolt is<br />
slices through air with its streamlined<br />
design flying rear first. It also eliminates<br />
the dreaded line getting caught<br />
in the hook issue.
105<br />
Field Test<br />
During our test we did some trolling<br />
during the times when we didn’t see<br />
any surface activities. <strong>The</strong> Ofmer Bolt<br />
swims really tight and well making it a<br />
superb trolling lure. We also managed<br />
to hook up a few large giant snakeheads.<br />
Even the guide was impressed I<br />
think as he said something in his native<br />
language of which I don’t understand,<br />
giving the Bolt a thumbs up.
107<br />
Weakness<br />
Unfortunately the hooks that came with<br />
the Bolt couldn’t manage the power of<br />
the monster size giant snakeheads and<br />
thus I lost my first fish of the day due<br />
to an open hook. Lucky for me I had<br />
lures with 3x strong hooks on them<br />
and changes were in place.
109<br />
Verdict<br />
<strong>The</strong> Ofmer Bolt 250SP cast well and they<br />
swim really tight making them great<br />
for both trolling and casting. However,<br />
my recommendation of which goes for<br />
most lures will be to upgrade the hooks<br />
to stronger ones.

NG IN-LINE BOAT GAME<br />
Ao Guang is the Dragon King of the<br />
East Sea in Chinese Mythology. Not<br />
only does he rule the eastern sea but<br />
lords over his brothers, the other Dragon<br />
Kings. Rod Ford lends the notable<br />
divine name to its new released In-Line<br />
Boat rods which scream of raw power<br />
and high tenacity.
115<br />
Designed to be pair with electric reels, the Ao Guang In-<br />
Line concept eliminates the usage of guides thus creating<br />
an ultimate saltwater bottom bashing rod with such<br />
advantages:<br />
1) Maximum blank strength since there is no stress<br />
points<br />
2) Equal performance at any angle and tangle free<br />
3) Extremely high sensitivity as the line will have more<br />
contact points<br />
4) Smoother drag pressure and retrieve<br />
5) Longer blank life span as the rod is now torque free<br />
from placement of external guides<br />
Be ready and confident to do battle with giant groupers<br />
from the dark depths and armies of red snappers.

Signature<br />
Rod<br />
Rod Ford first ever collaboration with<br />
Azahar MJ, a fishing guide and boat captain<br />
of Pekan, Pahang. Greatly known for<br />
his prowess in hunting the Ebeks with<br />
metal jigs and wild mackerel chase, Rod<br />
Ford built coastal class saltwater jigging<br />
rods to Azahar’s own specification preference.<br />
Each of the Sinister Ebek Special models<br />
come in dual handles. <strong>The</strong> extended<br />
with split rear end for jigging and a<br />
shorter full EVA handle for lure casting<br />
in estuaries, bay, coastal lines or around<br />
islands. <strong>The</strong> perfection is in which each<br />
model is equally well balance with both<br />
handles.
<strong>The</strong> 7’3” model is made to execute long fall technique<br />
with fluttering metal jigs on a spin outfit. Though<br />
contradictory to what the native Japanese suggest to<br />
using a multiplier reel for this option; our local shallow<br />
waters of South China Sea allows the different<br />
setup combination.

Fishing Crankbaits: Part 2
167<br />
By Jon B.<br />
Jon is an avid angler currently bsaed in Ohio, USA<br />
It’s safe to In the last issue we discussed<br />
square bill crank baits. I hope you gave<br />
them a try and have been on to fish. Let<br />
us jump into part 2.<br />
Once summer hits rising water temps<br />
usually follow close behind and with<br />
that causes larger bass to become lazier.<br />
When the sun’s rays heat up the water’s<br />
surface temperature some bass will stage<br />
up on deep ledges and drop-offs where<br />
the water is cool and oxygenated. It can<br />
be difficult to locate and track down bass<br />
in deep water like this and very few tactics<br />
and fishing methods prevail.
169<br />
In this case one specific type of crankbait that<br />
poses a threat to these lazy summer largemouth<br />
is deep diving crankbaits. Deep diving crankbaits<br />
rang anywhere from depths to 8ft-20ft and<br />
sometimes even deeper. <strong>The</strong>se baits are designed<br />
to target fish that lurk in the depths. Fishing deep<br />
diving cranks in and around deep rocking flats,<br />
drop-offs, ledges, and any places where fish seem<br />
to stack up in deep water is key to catching sluggish<br />
fish.<br />
When fishing deep cranks it is important to cover<br />
as much water as possible by making long cast.<br />
It is important that the angler is equipped with a<br />
long glass or composite rod ranging from 7’ 6”-7’<br />
11” in order to launch their bait in the designated<br />
area. <strong>The</strong> other important factor when fishing<br />
deep cranks is to use light lines. Lines that are too<br />
heavy and too thick in diameter will not allow<br />
a deep diving crank to sink to its full potential.<br />
12lb.-14lb. test fluorocarbon is the perfect fishing<br />
line to have spooled onto your 5.4:1 gear ratio<br />
casting reel when chucking and winding deep<br />
diving cranks.
171<br />
An important crankbait that should be included<br />
in every bass angler’s arsenal is a<br />
lipless crank. Like the squarebill the lipless<br />
crank is another versatile lure in a sense that<br />
it can be fished at any depth that the angler<br />
chooses. While this type of crank may not<br />
have a bill it has the similar action of most<br />
other crankbaits but with a tighter, more active<br />
side to side wobble.<br />
Lipless cranks tend to come into play during<br />
the cold fall months when water temperatures<br />
drop and the warm summer air<br />
is replaced with the cool breeze of fall. Fall<br />
fish will go to great measures to nab an extra<br />
meal to stock up before the winter freeze<br />
and the lipless crank is just the bait to throw<br />
when big fall bass are on the prowl. Since<br />
lipless cranks have no bill the angler can<br />
control the depth in which they believe the<br />
fish are biting thus making the lipless crank<br />
a deep and shallow water bass weapon.
173<br />
One attribute that the lipless crank brings<br />
to the table when it comes to reaction style<br />
bait is its ability to be ripped through sparse<br />
grass and not get hung up. Since the lipless<br />
crank has such an erratic action cranking<br />
one of these strange looking lures around<br />
and above grass beds is a breeze and can allow<br />
the angler to stay in the strike zone.<br />
Casting a lipless on windy points to imitate<br />
a schooling baitfish is one way to land some<br />
nice fish along with slowly crawling one<br />
near the bottom of a rocky shoal to imitate a<br />
swimming craw. <strong>The</strong>re are so many different<br />
variations and styles to fish the lipless crank<br />
making it such a popular lure for bass anglers<br />
all over the globe.

Before tying one of these bad boys on be sure<br />
you have a 7’ casting rod that is medium to<br />
medium heavy actions with a nice soft tip. It<br />
is important to fish these baits with a castings<br />
reel that is equipped with a fast gear<br />
ratio anywhere between 6.4:1 or 7.1:, this<br />
gear ratio is perfect because it will allow the<br />
angler reel the lipless crank at a fast pace if<br />
need be. Since the lipless has no bill its up<br />
the angler to choose what pound test line to<br />
use in a specific situation.<br />
While there are so many other crankbaits<br />
and hardbaits that exist in the bass fishing<br />
world these three seem to have an extremely<br />
high productivity rate when out on the water.<br />
Whether it be summer, fall, or spring<br />
these three have their niche in the bass fishing<br />
industry and will aid in landing more<br />
bass next time you’re out on the water.<br />

Knowledge Wise<br />
Fish Attractant (Scent): Part 2
177<br />
By Philemon Foo<br />
Last issue with discussed about<br />
scent, what they are, why they<br />
sometimes catch lots of fish and<br />
why they sometimes don’t, how<br />
they work, etc. Let us now go further<br />
taking a look at how scent can<br />
be used with the various types of<br />
fishing. We’ll start out with bottom<br />
fishing in this issue.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Scent Trail<br />
Scent works very well for bottom<br />
fishing. <strong>The</strong> reason scent works<br />
well for bottom fishing is because<br />
the bait does not move much. Once<br />
the bait reaches the bottom chances<br />
are that it will stay there for a few<br />
minutes (if not more). Scent creates<br />
a trail that aims to lead fishes lurking<br />
around to the bait sitting at the<br />
bottom.
179<br />
An Enhancer<br />
All baits used for bottom fishing such<br />
as various meats, insects, worms,<br />
dough, fruits, etc. already come with<br />
some form of scent. <strong>The</strong> use of scent<br />
here is to act as an enhancer to the<br />
original scent and attract fishes within<br />
the scent trail to check out the bait. Of<br />
course if the scent used is unsuitable for<br />
the said lake or pond, the opposite effect<br />
will happen.<br />
Encourages Fish To Bite<br />
Sometimes you may have your bait sitting<br />
at the bottom for awhile and you<br />
know that the fishes are there. For some<br />
reason they do not seem to want to<br />
take the bait. <strong>The</strong>y know that the bait is<br />
there and something seems off. Using<br />
scent here can help trigger a bite if the<br />
right scent is used.
181<br />
Bottom Fishing Scent Usage<br />
Methods<br />
Adding Scent To Baits<br />
One of the most common methods of<br />
using scent is to add them to baits. This<br />
is common with anglers that fish using<br />
dough bait. Some anglers use powdered<br />
scent and some pour liquid scent or essence<br />
into their dough mix. I have done<br />
it and it makes a difference. Of course the<br />
same can be used for natural baits such as<br />
meats, worms, etc.
Scent Trail within<br />
the fishing zone<br />
Scent
Scent Bomb<br />
Bomb<br />
Bait<br />
Okay, this is not a general term but something<br />
I made up during my time designing<br />
products for one of the world’s largest<br />
fishing tackle companies. A scent bomb is<br />
something you cast out and allow it to drop<br />
to the bottom of the area you intend to fish.<br />
<strong>The</strong> scent leaks out slowly creating trails to<br />
what we call the fishing zone.<br />
What I used to do was to use a little plastic<br />
bottle, make holes in it, and place lots of<br />
cotton in it until it is quite compact. I then<br />
slowly fill it up with scent (at the pond) and<br />
cast it out to where I am fishing.<br />
<strong>The</strong> scent will be released slowly creating a<br />
trail to your fishing zone. This in turn attracts<br />
fishes to your zone and then to your<br />
bait. This has worked well for me.<br />
Do note that the scent will run out sooner<br />
or later and you will have to reload your bait<br />
as well as scent bomb with more scent. Also<br />
try not to break the scent trail.<br />

Fishing is a very healthy sport.<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 />

Soft Plastic Adventures
201<br />
By Amirul Irfan<br />
Part 3<br />
This article is a follow up to my article<br />
‘Soft Plastic Adventures 2’.<strong>The</strong> adventure continues<br />
with my favourite style of fishing. Recently<br />
Pure Fishing <strong>Malaysia</strong> sent me some<br />
awesome baits fresh from Japan. Limited<br />
stocks are available at http://eco-sports.com.<br />
my/. I was stoked to try the baits, and the<br />
results were great. Some of these baits have<br />
been featured in the November <strong>Issue</strong> of <strong>The</strong><br />
<strong>Asian</strong> <strong>Angler</strong> magazine.
I planned to fish a monsoon drain, with some<br />
small and finicky striped snakeheads. <strong>The</strong><br />
Berkley Hollow Baby 3” in Maroko seemed<br />
to be the perfect bait because of its small profile<br />
and natural colour, mimicking the food<br />
source of the haruans in the monsoon drain<br />
which consist of small baitfish, shrimps and<br />
insects<br />
203
Success! After a few seconds of slowly twitching<br />
the bait, this little striped snakehead was<br />
fooled. Actually two striped snakeheads tried<br />
to gobble up the bait, but this little one was<br />
greedier. After snapping a few pics it was released<br />
to fight another day.<br />
205
Some of the striped snakeheads that lurk in<br />
the monsoon drain may seem like an easy<br />
game but one wrong cast and they are gone.<br />
Getting the bait to drop in slowly like real<br />
food triggered some aggressive reaction bites.<br />
207
I continued fishing with the Berkley Powerbait<br />
Inch Hawg in Cinnamon Purple Fleck. I<br />
rigged it on the Jazz RHead D-Type jighead.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Inch Hawg is 1.5” in length which makes<br />
it look absolutely like real forage. I fished<br />
it fast with some twitches, and the jighead<br />
darted around and triggered another reaction<br />
bite. Fish on!<br />
209
I noticed a damaged spinner bait in my tackle<br />
box and I knew I could put it to good use. I<br />
rigged a Berkley 3” Powergrub in firetiger on<br />
the bait, and I hooked my first spinnerbait<br />
fish. This little striped snakehead couldn’t resist<br />
the tasty looking bait.<br />
211
I continued fishing with the same<br />
bait and 5 minutes later, the second<br />
fish was on. I saw some commotion<br />
in a shallow weedy area<br />
and made a cast. I did not notice<br />
that this fish was on because of the<br />
weeds.<br />
213
A few days later I decided to fish in the monsoon<br />
drain. <strong>The</strong> water was a bit murky and the fishing<br />
was slow. I tried the Berkley Powerbait Saltwater<br />
Shrug Minnow in the white glow pattern because it<br />
looks like a shrimp or a small minnow. After a few<br />
casts this little striped snakehead obliged.<br />
215
I never had confidence in spinnerbaits, so I decided<br />
to fish them more. Mr.Juan Wei of Sport Fishin’ Asia<br />
once told me that confidence plays a crucial role in<br />
lure fishing. He suggested that I try some spinnerbaits<br />
for striped snakeheads, as they can produce fish<br />
despite the weird look. I hooked 3 snakeheads that<br />
evening on the same spinnerbait with the Berkley 3”<br />
Powergrub as a trailer.<br />
217
<strong>The</strong> next day I fished a new spinnerbait, but the fishing<br />
was really slow. I added the Berkley 3” Powergrub<br />
in hopes of triggering more bites. I hooked a solid<br />
striped snakehead, but after an acrobatic flip and a<br />
dive into weeds, it was off. I did not give up and continued<br />
casting. I received a consolation in form of<br />
this healthy striped snakehead, which ambushed the<br />
spinnerbait during the fall.<br />
219
One gloomy Saturday morning<br />
I decided to fish with some buddies.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Berkley Powerbait Kasumi<br />
Craw produced this flying striped<br />
snakehead. I made a cast and the<br />
soft plastic went over a tree branch<br />
.I decided to twitch it in the water,<br />
and out of the blue comes this<br />
ferocious little striped snakehead.<br />
221
It started to rain and after some quick<br />
pictures this cute striped snakehead<br />
was released. I went back home with<br />
some buddies and played some ping<br />
pong while waiting for the rain to stop.<br />
223
<strong>The</strong> water was calm and clear after the<br />
rain. I fished a popper beside a small<br />
grass island and it was ambushed by<br />
this beautiful striped snakehead. Second<br />
half of the morning session is<br />
going good. This beautiful fish was<br />
released to grow bigger and badder.<br />
225
We continued fishing until the sun was<br />
high above our heads. <strong>The</strong> fish were<br />
hiding in weeds since it was hot so we<br />
changed tactics. We used the Berkley<br />
Kasumi Craw, without the claws. <strong>The</strong><br />
smaller profile triggered some good<br />
bites from both big striped snakeheads<br />
and small ones. <strong>The</strong>se 2 striped<br />
snakeheads were released as usual.<br />
227
Berkley Powerbait Kasumi Craw 3” in<br />
black orange worked great to get this<br />
haruan out of grass. I fished the craw<br />
fast as a top water bait, and the kasumi<br />
craw was viciously hit. <strong>The</strong> orange<br />
claws and orange eyes of the striped<br />
snakehead seem to fit together nicely.<br />

231
<strong>The</strong> Double Hawg proving it’s worth<br />
again. <strong>The</strong> sun was up and the striped<br />
snakeheads in the pond shunned<br />
almost every lure I tried that morning.<br />
My Double Hawg happened to<br />
cross an opening in between some<br />
weeds at the right time. <strong>The</strong> fish<br />
shot out of the water like a missile<br />
and was immediately hooked.<br />
Catch and release is the way to go.<br />
233
Here’s a decent striped snakehead<br />
on the Berkley Powerbait 3” Kasumi<br />
Craw in green pumpkin chartreuse.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re’s something about the<br />
kasumi craw that triggers aggressive<br />
hits both topwater and underwater.<br />
One of my deadliest baits besides<br />
the Powerbait Double Hawg.<br />
235
This picture proves that the Kasumi<br />
Craw is one bait you must have for<br />
snakeheads. Despite the murky water<br />
and the heavy rain, I hooked this<br />
striped snakehead after losing another<br />
3 small ones. <strong>The</strong> last month of <strong>2014</strong><br />
is here and I am hoping to end it with<br />
some more quality fish.<br />
Tight lines and happy fishing.<br />

Coarse Fishing Competition Ire<br />
Part 3: What’s <strong>The</strong> Craic
239<br />
land<br />
By Tengku Izzudin<br />
@ <strong>The</strong> Guv’nor<br />
After I drew Rotation 5 the night before, my partner<br />
and I were keen to get started. We did some last minute<br />
preparations late into the night and got everything<br />
ready for an early start the next day. All that is left is to<br />
load up the van and brew our tea in the morning!
Regret having my thermals on.
Day 1 and I drew Church on peg 11, Kevin dropped<br />
me off and I got set up straightaway. Had Dave Brettle<br />
on my left and Mike Kirby, another first timer to Ireland,<br />
on my right. <strong>The</strong> starting whistle blew everyone<br />
got down to business. Everyone was on the tip and I<br />
caught some early hybrids. Didn’t expect pike would<br />
heavily ‘tax’ your catches though! I stayed on the feeder<br />
throughout the match but things didn’t quite go<br />
my way. Every time I turned to Dave and Mike they<br />
were reeling in fish! After my first day of Irish match<br />
fishing it was evident there still was plenty for me to<br />
learn. Had a low 2.340kg, but it was a good experience<br />
and at least it wasn’t the lowest weight in my section.<br />
Kevin went through some tactics with me later on the<br />
way back so had to remember a few things!<br />
241
Day 3 and I drew Peg 3 and Kiltybardan, handy cause<br />
I had a practise just at the next peg so was somewhat<br />
familiar with it. With ‘ 3 red maggots’ and ’50 turns’<br />
drilled into me head the night before, I was attacking<br />
my swim with plenty of feed on the tip and pole lines.<br />
I swapped between tip and pole to get the bites coming<br />
and caught some hybrids and skimmers. Heard<br />
Killadeas was fishing hard and wondering how Kevin<br />
got on. Certainly felt a little bit more confident in this<br />
match and caught better than the first two days. Guess<br />
I managed to repay some of Kevins’ and Steve’s trust in<br />
me by weighing in at 6.860kg for a second in the section<br />
with Frances again coming up tops with 8.00kg.<br />
Went back to the cottage to some high fives from Steve<br />
and plenty of cheering in the pub that night!<br />
243
Misty and muddy.
Day 4<br />
Up on a cold, misty morning, I drew peg 1 at Ross<br />
Lough, the poor guys on the higher numbered pegs<br />
though had to lug it all the way to the peg through the<br />
mud. <strong>The</strong>re was a small discussion going on as to how<br />
far anglers are allowed to wade out due to the mud<br />
and low water level. Can’t believe how shallow it was!<br />
Set up on the rushes and caught early hybrids on the<br />
tip. I thought the fishing was really good with some<br />
early hybrids, at least until all the mist cleared and the<br />
sun came out which made bites really hard to come<br />
by. <strong>The</strong> resident pikes where there and they were no<br />
help eating some of my precious catches. <strong>The</strong> sun was<br />
out too and the old watch indicated 33 degrees Celcius.<br />
I’m getting a nice tan from all this fishing! At the<br />
end of the day I managed a measly 3.600kg and Carl<br />
at peg 2 weighed 3.800kg, guess not the best pegs on<br />
Ross. Still enjoying the fishing and the scenery with<br />
warm weather all around. and will be looking forward<br />
to section 4 tomorrow.<br />

WHY USE SUPERLINES<br />
WHY USE MONOFILAMENT<br />
SUPER STRONG, THIN AND SENSITIVE!<br />
THE EASY-TO-HANDLE, ALL-AROUND PERFORMER<br />
In their search for the best fishing line, many anglers have discovered the<br />
benefits of amazingly thin, super-strong superlines.<br />
With so many options on the market, choosing the best fishing line can seem a bit overwhelm<br />
your style of fishing.<br />
What Is Mono<br />
What Are Superlines<br />
As its name implies, monofilament fishing line—or "mono" for short—is a single strand of mat<br />
fused, Berkley-branded braided or bundled lines together. are made from the highest grade Dyneema in the<br />
industry, a gel-spun polyethylene that is 15 times stronger than steel by<br />
weight. As a result, Berkley superlines offer zero stretch at typical fishing<br />
loads, plus low memory and, thanks to incredibly high tensile strength, remarkably<br />

Stretch - Mono stretches more than superlines and more easily than fluorocarbon, which give<br />

Manufacturers use a variety of techniques to join Dyneema fibers to form<br />
polyethylene fishing line. For example, Berkley FireLine is thermally bonded<br />
into a tough, smooth-casting line; Berkley Trilene Braid is woven into<br />
an extremely strong braid through a proprietary method giving it the very<br />
best radial construction; and Berkley NanoFil is molecularly linked to form<br />
a unifilament that’s thinner and stronger than any other superline.<br />
By stretching under pressure, mono also helps prevent your hook from tearing a hole in a fish<br />

close quarters. For example, many top bass pros and gamefish anglers (Marlin & Sailfish) pre<br />
over superline for pitching jigs.<br />
Shock Strength - Stretch should not be confused with shock strength, which is a fishing line’s<br />
important consideration. Shock strength comes into play when your line has to withstand the s<br />
fish thrashing violently at boatside.<br />

Thin Diameter—This is undeniably the best fishing line in terms of tensile<br />
strength, which refers to breakload per diameter. Since a 30-pound superline<br />
may have the same diameter as 12-pound premium nylon monofilament,<br />
you can downsize diameter without sacrificing strength. Alternately,<br />
