They do look awesome Hon-su, but $35 each = ouch ! You wouldn't want to get to many snags.

Honsu, they look wikid!

At $35rrp.....still managed to sell 10 in 2 days.....and thats more than the yo-zuri's in the same days!!
I havent even got the Uo-Jya yet!!

So they must be catching squid......OR fishos!! lol

They have that typical Gancraft lure look to them.
Highly detailed,but like everything Gan-mighty expensive

What is the smallest size UO-jya you will be stocking?

only one size available from my supplier at the mo...... #3.5

sorry but I just cant get my head around paying $35 for a jig to catch squid on....or 300 bucks for a rod and another 250 for a reel...
my new stick I just made cost me a huge ......wait for it....
$4.50...and it works real sweet and it's nice and light and 2.7 metres long...I had all the gear and I just needed a bottle of filler to coat the guides and winch clamp.
I'd say I saved a pile of bucks....

If you are happy with your $4.50 build,that is cool mate.
If someone wants to buy$35 egi's,that too is cool by me.

To each their own I guess.

Wont even mention what some of my bass gear is worth


hahahaha

Same can be said with cars......why buy a BMW when a Hyundai can do the same job for alot less.....

Its all personal choices and there are always reasons why some products are more expensive than others.

nailed it guys
I'm quite happy using my cheapo gear that serves me very well and brings home the bacon so to speak.

Lol...cheap Bacon!!

I tried my Egi-Jya on the weekend. Got some squid with it but bit harder work than usual as I really have to a make a loooong cast as its a slow sinker. More suited to shallower water. I was using #3.5 and fishing 4m+ of water. Ended up using either the yozuri aurie RS 3.5 and Egilee Dartmax 3.0 There was also a slight cross wind. Ended up with 9 within an hour, averaging 15cm..ish tube size.

Still waiting for the hardbody Uo-Jya.

Hon-Su,
I would buy them for $35 if you can get a lighter, slow sinking version, 2.0 or 2.5 SS would be a treat! Let me know what appears on the shelves, they look fantastic, and I'm sure they would catch squid over here.
