Sabiki 500...Review #2 The Skinny
Okay, because I was implored by the manufacturer...AND... after showing some promise during my first session (although very brief) using the Sabiki 500...I will overlook the premature line breakoff and re-review...The Sabiki 500
So this time...staying away from all signs of kelp (as suggested by the manufacturer)...I tied off the remaining section of my original Sabiki 500 onto a broken off section of a typical Sabiki rig...no I'm not CHEAP, lol. LONG story short...the Sabiki 500 out-caught bait...both Greenies and Spaniards by a 3 to 1 margin. In closing, I will highly endorse this product but only if the line is upgraded from the lower end Korean brand to either a German, Japanese or American monofilament brand. My suggestion on the price line will be $7 for a typical 5 hook rig. Sincerely, Jim

out caught normal Sabiki by 3 to 1 margin? but 3.5 times the price? Still needs upgrades to be viable?
something does not add up |

Did I miss any black friday sales for these. Are the hooks real gold? Or just painted? $7?

That would be a very expensive sabiki! I use Charkbait's Ahi sabiki which are very durable and only $1.50.

Don't allow all of these responding "experts" to move the rest of you off such a fine item. Where are all the guys who couldn't catch bait this year...don't make me run a BWE search on you. Okay, okay...$4.50 per pack, free shipping and a full autograph on the side of one of these shrimp by the owner...?

How are they packaged? Looks like the picture is blurred to hide the quality of the hardware.
What other colors does it come in? Is there a left-handed model available? |
