Geecrack Field Pouch: The ultimate LRF Bag?

I am very interested in fishing gear. Not only tackle but also anything related to it transportation. I try and test many models and decide on which one is the best to use. I have started with non specific outdoor bags, I tried fly fishing specific gear with success, but lately I have focused on anything that would work perfectly for my type of fishing.  I did lots of research online and found very interesting brand, that of course, is from Japan.
The company is called Geecrack and in my opinion they make some fine products specific for the saltwater anglers. They have a range of products that includes bags, hip bags, slingbags, jig bags, backpacks and so on. The color choices are wide and you can definitely find something for your taste.
The Field Pouch got my attention. I was looking for something compact for my LRF fishing. The hipbag I currently use is a fly fishing bag from Fishpond. A very reputable Fly fishing gear company, but it was too big for my need.
Anyway, to cut it short, I put my hands on this great Geecrack bag. Is this the bag I was looking for? Didn't try it yet but it surely looks like a winner. Enjoy the review below and the official video too! Every picture has some caption under it.

My rate:

Here are the specs:

Size	14cmx horizontal vertical thickness 8cm 20cmx

Here is the official video:





My review:

Cool logo.

Here is the bag. Comes with a shoulder strap too. I chose the black/fluo
green combo. Looks nice enough.

Detail of the Geecrack logo. The material is very durable nylon 600 D nylon

The rear has an attachment for the belt. I think it is useful if you want
to use it almost as a mini hip bag. I am planning to use it this way.

Also comes with a blue anodized carabiner. It gives the possibility to attach it
virtually everywhere you want.

The front zip is great for small items such as leader spools or even
car keys.

Front pouch is useful for small items or even cell phones.

Inside is where it shines most. Double compartment with separator.

I can fit three Meiho Boxes :  One Large, One Medium Sized SFC Boxes and
a small Meiho "cellphone like" small terminal tackle box. More than
enough for any kind of LRF. Actually the L size allows to carry even14 cm lures
so it can be used for some medium weight fishing too.

Here is the bag with all the boxes inside. Still looks
compact and easy to transport.

Another cool feature is the pliers sheath.
Very essential!

The bag is ready to go! Enjoy it.

More LRF stuff from C9 Tackle

I think this LRF craze is getting bigger and bigger.
I can definitely see more sites and facebook pages about this interesting ultra light fishing method.
My favorite store has started selling lots of LRF stuff lately. I am sure this is a nice addition to the range of products available in the inventory. Getting LRF stuff was kind of difficult for me but now I have access to many tackle for this specific method. Right now you can find fine brands like Ecogear, Tict, Owner, Deps, Reins and Mars online.
If you are a LRF aficionado check it!

One of the best jigheads out the. 

Didn't try them but given the reputation of Cultiva, it can't be bad!

Nice collaboration between two great sofbait companies.
Definitely worth checking!

New Stuff

Just received another package from Japan. It is winter and outside is -1 degree. I really missed fishing and the only way to past time is to order some nice stuff from Japan.
This weekend I will write more about it.
In the picture you can see my new LRF bag by Geecrack, a very cool company specialized in fishing bag and gears. Also you can spot some Ecogear Grass Minnow and Shirasu Heads.
Details coming soon :)

Geecrack, Ecogear, Daiwa, Meiho and IMA.

Lure Photo 15: IMA GUN 12g.

Today I had the chance to grab my camera and take a shot of the new jig I just got form my local tackle store.
Right now I am pondering on what single hook to use on this beauty. Probably a single assist hook dressed with some flash. I have to decide on the size.

IMA GUN 12g. and Sufix Invisiline

Today I went to my local tackle store and got myself a couple of IMA Gun jigs. The store was selling only the 12 g version so I just opted for those and ordered the 7 g. from Japan.
I like the shape and the overall quality seems good. Well, it is an IMA, so it has to look good anyway.
The jig comes with no hooks but it is no problem for me. I need to decide on the hook size and be ready to try it soon.
I think the 12 g. version is useful on those situations where you see some surface blitz of mackerel or even little tunny (false albacore). Also might be useful for garfish in port area.
Anyway it needs to be tested.

In case you missed the video. It is here:



The other items I got are two spools of fluorocarbon leader by Sufix. I got the 6lb and 12lb versions. The 6lb will be used for LRF while the 12lb looks a good choice for light seabass fishing in port area. I usually buy Seaguar but since it isn't available right now I decided to try a brand that has good a good reputation. I clearly stay away from unknown or low quality brands.

Smith LTD. Lures Video

I am very fond of Smith LTD lures. I own only a couple of them but I know that they have a great reputation among anglers.
I have found an amazing video (in HD too!) that shows some of the most famous lures in action.
It is worth watching it.

Enjoy
