Who has best range of Berkley power bait?

Postby Barrabundy » Sun Sep 02, 2012 8:49 pm

I prefer to fish with power bait plastics rather than the gulp variety but they don't seem to be very popular.
Does anyone know who might usually stock a good range of them? Obviously it be after the chain stores which may all have a presence up here.

Mo's at Coffs had the best range I have seen in one place when I passed through there last week.

I couldn't find the ones I wanted anywhere for ages, eventually found a mob online that has them...I'll have to look back through my email see where I got them from. BCF had the same ones I wanted a couple weeks after I bought them online...didn't have them for months before though! I agree they are much better than the Gulp...just a pitty they don't make as many different styles.

Yes, I've managed to score a few packs as samples and they are just as good, if not better so far as the actuall plastic goes. They're really elastic and tough although the ones I was given were the prawns.

I really hate the way the gulps and equivalents shrivel up, not convenient or cheap if you want carry a rod around just in case. I'd end up going through a packet without even catching a fish with the gulps whereas the other ones will stay on a hook for years without needing to worry about them, they work out much cheaper and are more supple so give a bit better action (in my mind, not necessarily the fish's)

The DOA soft plastics are pretty good value if you can find them.
