That's not fair - there's nothing of that calibre in Aus.....

Although I did notice they may ship out here - brings back memories of the old 'Bass-Pro' order days

there is nothing better than lusting after tackle you cant afford

I've studied that mudhole site a bit ;-)
Didn't know bout the other one though.

Its crazy

The only problem i face is the when i import materials for fly fishing it has to go through customs. But if you shop around you find some cheaper iteams i found flylines in the UK for $20 AUD that unbelievable hen a basic line here is $70.

I dont think American or British have the same types of reels, unsure if they are using braid over there.

I know on this site there is good prices but mst importantly the delivery is cheap. Mo Tackle is cheap but you pay what youd normally pay if you went to the locl tackle shop.

Mudhole is good but delievery is a bugger
