Abu Ga
Part 2
Back To The Lab

Reel: Abu Garcia Stealth ST6000
Line: Berkley Fireline
Poundage: 30lb
Testing Grounds: Natural Exotic Pond

Series: Veracity Pro
Model: VERPS 702 MH A
Length: 7
Lure Wt.: 1/4-1oz.
Line Wt.: 12-30lb
Configuration: 2 pieces
Opponents: Amazon Red Tail Catfish
e tested the Abu Garcia Veracity Pro rods in our

lab back in January 2016. The casting one managed to
take up to 20.7lb of pressure, of which is slightly above
its rated 20lb test. Unfortunately we could not test it in
the field as we had to return it in exchange for a spinning one.
Having a different rod in our hands we had no choice

but to get back to our lab and put it through the pressure test. The target this time is 30lb, as claimed on
the rod. So we secured a reel to it and secured the
line to a ground anchor.
11
Start The Torture
Field Test
We pushed the Veracity Pro up all the way to about

24lb with a lot of worry as it was bending quite dangerously. We continued to push it until it touched
about 26lb and then we decided to stop in fear it
may just break. It was 4lb shy of the targeted 30lb.
We took the Veracity Pro to our usual field testing

site and had a go with the gladiators there. These
big dirty fighters would make minced meat or in this
case fiberized graphite out of lesser rods. There is
no mercy once the bait is taken.
13
Casting Abilities
Fish Management
For bait we used half a bait fish and cast it out into
the middle of the pond near the pillars of a restaurant that is built out into the pond. The Veracity Pro
cast pretty well allowing us to land our baits into the
zone (where the gladiators hang out) over and over
again.
Not long later the Veracity Pro started to do a bend

and the reel starting screaming. We were in for a
fight. I palmed the spool and proceeded to drag
the gladiator out away from the pillars, right into the
open space. The Veracity Pro has just enough power to turn the heads of these gladiators.
15
Not For Brute Force
Summary
Test
Thus Far
The Veracity Pro is not made to handle the barbaric brute force type of fishing. It is made for the
more gentle sporty angler where the fish will have
its chance to run. While we managed to turn a few
heads, we did end up in the snags (pillars) too. Luckily we managed to get back out with fish intact.
The Abu Garcia Veracity Pro looks sinisterly good

in blood red but whats more important is that it is a
capable rod. It may not be the lightest rod not the
most sensitive rod, nor is it a hard fighting brute rod;
but with the Fuji components and the price it comes
in, it certainly is good value for money.

High Performance
he Abu Garcia Revo Toro S is one of Abu Garcias

answers to low profile saltwater casting reels. It comes
in white side plates and a black frame looking somewhat
like a reel made for the imperial storm troopers who are
the main ground force of the Galactic Empire (Star Wars).
The Revo Toro S is a powerhouse of a reel that is

made to fight hard, subduing monster after monster.
It is one heck of tough reel that can take in lots of
lines thus allowing you to mess about with the saltwater gladiators of the seas.

Powerful Drag
Lab Test
The drag system on the Revo Toro S would give hard

fighting brutes a run for their money. It comes with a
Power stack Carbon Matrix drag system rated with
a 25lb max drag. To see if it meets what it claims we
took it to our lab for a bit of torture.
Back at our lab we put it through the pressure test.

Securing the line to a ground anchor we started to
apply force. We got it easily to 20lb with the drag
running smooth. We continued on to a high drag
pressure almost maxing out the drag and we got it
to 26.5lb with the drag still smooth.

Casting Abilities
Rod: Abu Garcia Salty Stage KRX Jigging

Line: Berkley Fireline braid 40lb
Leader: Berkley Vanish 50lb
To see how it will performed we took it to Pulau Jarak (Jarak Island) for a test drive. The Revo TORO
S is a reel for big things.
The Revo Toro S come with a magnetic braking system that has 8 magnets to help control the spool.
Casting big lures or jigs are thus its forte. That being
said the Revo Toro S is a decent reel to cast with
giving decent distances with very good spool control.

Fighting Abilities
Summary
We managed to bully a few fishes dragging them out

of their hiding place with relative ease. The larger
round knob makes cranking and fighting more comfortable. Although the fishes caught are of decent
weight, none of them managed to provide a fight
worthy of the Revo Toro S. The reel has proven itself to be an overkill in this instance.
If you are in the market for a saltwater low profile

powerhouse, the Abu Garcia Revo Toro S is one of
the reels to consider. It is a good performer with lots
of power allowing you to do battle with confidence.

We had a powerhouse in our hands and all we caught

were gladiator wannabes instead of the real gladiators. This time we ended up the bully. The Revo
Toro S made bullying way too easy.

Abu Garcia Salty Stage

BV8 Part 2
Field Test
Rod: Abu Garcia Salty Stage KR-X Jigging PE1-2

Line: Berkley Fireline Braid
Poundage: 20lb
ast issue we were mesmerized by the looks

of the Abu Garcia Salty Stage BV8 baitcasting
reel. We also took it to the lab and tortured it with
the pressure test where it did well reaching 8.3kg
(1.3kg above the 7kg mark). It did so with a smooth
drag. This time let us see how it performed on the
field.
To test the Salty Stage BV8 we took it to our usual field

testing site where big and muscular gladiators sit in
wait to do battle. This pond is the Natural Exotic Fishing
Pond, a commercial fishing pond (pay to fish) in Rawang, Malaysia. Anglers who have fished here know what
is at stake.
35
Casting Abilities
When it comes to casting the Salty Stage BV8 brings

out the charms. Coming with magnetic brakes it cast well
with good control over the spool, giving decent distances
especially when we needed to land our baits near the
pillars of a restaurant that sits somewhat at the centre of
the pond. This is where some of the gladiators hide.
Fighting Abilities
Having need to land our baits near pillars, I think you can
imagine just how thin a line we are walking. We have to
get the fish away from the pillars or risk getting snagged;
something which has happened many a times. With the
Salty Stage BV8s drag pushed up we managed to drag
the gladiators out into the open. It also has enough drag
to offer good amounts of control.
37
Added Excitement Smooth Performer
The Salty Stage BV8 comes with a line out alarm which
provides for added excitement especially during the fight.
We have often heard of the term screaming reels. The
Salty Stage BV8 screams during the fight (although not
loud) and this is simply one of the best sounds to an angler. Few low profile baitcasting reels come with this feature.
Battle after battle went on smoothly with the Salty Stage

BV8 performing very well. We landed a few tough fighting
gladiators; mainly the red tail Amazon catfish. The power
handle and the bigger round made fighting these gladiators more comfortable with better grip. Before long they
were posing for a shot.

Panicky State
I am happy that we did not lose any fish but we got spooled
once. This was the first fish that took the bait. The brute
took off into the open (fortunately), heading over to the
other side of the pond. In a short while we reached the
monofilament backing. I proceeded to max out the drag. I
still got spooled but luckily the line held up. That happens
when we cant have enough lines in the spool.

performance reel with lots to offer. It looks good, fights
well, and the line out alarm is nice when the fishes try to
make off with ones bait. Good reel to think about should
you be considering low profile baitcasting reel.

brown snakeheads (haruan) and giant snakeheads

The King Frog comes in a striking mix of colours. Some

of these colours come with flakes that reflect lights. Having such striking colours does provide an advantage.
The main one being an attractive moving target that will
easily catch the attention of predators fishes.

The King Frog comes with skirts and two swimming appendages that look like frog legs. This gives the illusion
of an actual frog swimming making it more attractive to
predator fishes and thus getting them to strike.
Hard Bodied
When it comes to frog type lures, there are two types. The
hard bodied and the soft. The King Frog comes with a
hard plastic body. The benefit of being hard bodied is that
it will not take in water like some of the soft bodied ones
(except soft plastic baits) that will have to be squeezed
out after a few cast of risk losing balance.

The King Frog comes equipped with strong Owner Double hooks that dangle at the back in between the appendages and the skirt. These hooks are of high quality.
The skirt and the appendages provide some weedlessness to it.
Field Test
To test the effectiveness of the King Frog we gave a few

out to various field testers to have them tested in various places in different parts of the country. As for us, we
headed out to a few nearby ponds and had a go with
them.
49
Casting
The King Frog cast well. It is well weighted, and being

compact it goes to good distances with an easy cast. It
is one of those lures that are fun to cast. It is like you get
satisfaction from a good cast almost all the time.
The Action
The King Frog is a floating type lure. When twitched it

moves like a real frog moving in the water. When paused
it sits with its back underwater pointed downwards and its
head pointed upwards. Both its appendages hang about
underwater in a weird indecent sort of way while the skirts
point upwards. Looks more like a dead frog floating.
51
Catching Fish
Unfortunately I did not catch any fish fishing in a heavily pressured pond near my place. I had two strikes but
unfortunately they didnt stick. The other field testers did
better. Quite a few brown snakeheads and giant snakeheads were caught and landed.
A Low Point
While the King Frog did well in attracting fishes and getting them to strike, one issue we noticed is that the hooks
are a little thick and thus there were quite a number of
failed hook-ups. Changing them to thinner hooks made
the difference.
53
Summary
Overall the Minnows Inc Beito Original King Frog is a

good frog lure that fishes find attractive. Should you decide to add them to your lure collection do note that we
highly recommend changing the hooks to thinner diameter hooks for improved hook-ups.

ecoy makes very good hooks and they have

proven themselves over and over. Still we wanted
to know how good they are. Naturally the best thing
to do will be to bring them to our lab and have them
tested. We decided to test the Decoy Tracin Single
31 OP lure hooks.
Before we did anything to these hooks we needed to

know if they are sharp to begin with. We ran it on our
plastic spoon to see if it will catch on. The Tracin Single
31 hooks caught on easily proving that they are sharp.

Next we drowned them in freshwater for 24 hours. Most

of us would not leave our hooks in water for 24 hour
when we fish thus this test will be more than sufficient
to see if they will rust in freshwater for the duration of
our fishing. After 24 hours in the freshwater we found
no sign of rust. We ran it on our plastic spoon and they
caught on which means that the hooks are still sharp.
59
Saltwater Test
Next we drowned them in saltwater for 24 hours to see if
they would be able to go on for at least 24 hours without
rusting in this corrosive solution. After 24 hours we removed them from the saltwater solution and inspected
them. No signs of rust.

Next we just had to run them on our plastic spoon to see

if they are still sharp. No point fishing with a blunt hook
right? These hooks caught onto the plastic spoon which
means that they remained sharp even after drowning
them in saltwater for 24 hours.
Summary
We have found the Decoy Tracin Single Hooks to be

good hooks. They are indeed quality hooks and they
have proven themselves in our lab in both salt and freshwater environments as well as the sharpness test. If you
are in the market for quality lure hooks, the Decoy Tracin Single Hooks can be considered.

on a lollypop. The Revo Toro Beast is the Humvee.
When you look at the Revo Toro Beast, it speaks to

your subconscious mind. Its power handle, rounded
EVA knob, large gearbox, etc. talks about power.
Its spool capacity that takes in lots of lines tells you
that this beast is made to handle big brutes, and not
just those who think that they are brutes.
67

Lure Fishing Basics
Adjustments
Part 4
ver the past 3 issues we discussed about hard

lures, mainly crankbaits and their characteristics, as
well as how they work. Before we actually go into fishing them (lure playing techniques), let us first look into
preparing them.
Before Casting
Before you cast out your lure, the first thing that you
should do is to ensure that your lure swims right. With
this I mean the direction of which it swims to. You want
your lure to be swimming in a straight line. It will wobble
or shimmer while it is being cranked but you want it
coming back in a straight line.
85
Testing Your Lures Adjusting The Lure
Test your lure by casting it out and cranking it back in.

If it swims off in one direction (left or right), it needs to
be adjusted. A lure that swims off in one direction other
than in a straight line will prove to be difficult to manipulate. They are pretty darn ineffective and very seldom
catch fish.
Another thing you will notice is that certain lures come

with the bill set at a different angle. Some are set horizontal to the lure. Some are set somewhat at a 45 deYou

ones. The square type offers a better more confident
grip, to me at least.
87
Be Careful
Adjusting The
Action
If your lure swims to the right, bend the towing point

very slightly to the left. If it swims to the left, bend the
towing point to the right slightly. Cast your lure out and
crank it back again. If it still does not swim right, adjust
the towing point again very slightly. Cast the lure out
again and crank it back. Adjust the towing point until
you get the lure swimming back to you in a straight line.
The wobble of the lure can be adjusted but first, a note

of caution. With plastic lures, doing such adjustments
may not work and could damage the lure if you are not
careful. Thus I do not recommend doing so on plastic
lures. They work on wooden lures.
89
Modern Lures
The action of the lure can be tuned by bending the towing point upwards or downwards. Bending the towing
point upwards gives the lure a shimmy type action.
Bending downwards gives it a slow wobble.
Most modern lures will not require such adjustments

to their action as they are well adjusted in the factories
before they are packed. These lures have been tuned
for a certain action and will swim well (most of the time).
Doing adjustments to them may very well damage them.
91
Plain Lousy
More Next Issue
Some lures seem to be un-adjustable. No matter how

you adjust them they will not swim right. Well, some
lures are just plain lousy. They came manufactured
badly. Best thing to do with these lures is to remove the
hooks, attached a key chain ring to the towing point and
youve got yourself a new key chain that tells everyone
youre an angler.
That is all for now. Starting next issue we will explore

lure playing techniques. Meanwhile, take your lures to
some lake or pond or swimming pool and see how they
swim. Who knows, you could very well catch a fish or
two.

Uses
All About Hooks:

Part 4 Treble Ho
oks
reble hooks are basically three hooks attached to

one. Some people call them triple hooks but the actual
term for it is treble hooks or trebles for short. The reason why some call them triple hooks could be because
they are actually three hooks attached to one.
Treble hooks are generally used with lures, jigs, spoons,

spinners, etc. The use of treble hooks stems from the
believe that they increase the chance of hooking up a
fish thus why they are popular. Well, they do but they
also do come with a few disadvantages especially with
fishes that have tough jaws.
95
s
n
ig
s
e
D
Treble hooks come in various designs. There are the

short shank and long shank ones. They also come with
various types of bends including the usual rounded
bend, the limerick bend, inline bend, etc. There are also
the wide gape and narrow gape types.
Single Lure Hooks
When it comes to lures, most of them come with treble

hooks. These days more anglers are opting for single
hooks, exchanging them with the trebles that originally
comes with the lures that they buy. The normal single
hooks used for bottom fishing are not recommended to
be used with lures. For lures there are the single lure
hooks.
97

E
eY
Single hooks made for lures come with a larger hook

eye. Some come with hook eyes that are not only larger
but also opened, allowing one to just slot the lures ring
into it, and then clamping the eye close. Bottom fishing
single hooks have smaller eyes that will fit too rigidly on
the ring.

The single lure hooks comes in different designs. Some

come with long shanks, some come with short shanks,
some are rounded, etc. There are single hooks for most
every lure type as well as personal preferences. An example is this opened eye hook. Allows for easy attachment to lures. Just squeeze down the eye to lock.

Treble hooks of which were and still do come with most

lures have a few disadvantages. For one they do cause
more damage to a fishes mouth, and they can be bent
opened as well as crushed by the powerful jaws of
certain fishes. Single hooks do not have such issues.
Single hooks have a lower chance of getting snagged
when fishing around snags as compared to trebles.

I for one prefer using single hooks on my lures and

have most of them changed. At the end of the day it is
still up to personal preferences and which configuration
provides for the highest amount of confidence.

Fishing Fun January
ello everyone!
I hope the month of January has been a good start for everyone. For me,it has been a bit tough, because of the hot
weather. Fish were very passive throughout the day and
the only chance to get a decent bite is fishing at first light.
This snakehead is my first catch of 2016,on a pop frog
popped slowly beside some grass.
This is my second snakehead for 2016.It hit this 7cm clone

of the Rapala Shallow Shad Rap on my last cast. Look at
the size of the lure compared to its head. This fish was
very aggressive and fought hard.
The Redhead colour seems to be effective for haruans
here, probably because they havent seen it before.
113
This snakehead also came on the same clone lure in

the evening. I saw this snakehead resting on a weed
bed, and a slow retrieve with a long pause managed to
get the attention of this snakehead and another one as
well. Both of them tried to take the lure, but this one got
it first. The Surecatch D-Legend rod helped to lift the
fish out of the water quickly before it made it to some
structure.
Here is a juvenile snakehead caught on a Zman 3

Minnowz by my younger brother. This little snakehead was very greedy and it fought very hard as
well.
115
Here is another juvenile caught on a spinnerbait with a

2 Berkley Powerbait Powergrub as a trailer. The flash
and vibration managed to trigger bites from juvenile
snakeheads.
This juvenile snakehead was caught on the 3.8 Berkley

Powerbait Saltwater Slinky Shad. I saw it rising in front of
me with another snakehead, and I tried fishing it slowly.
This fish hit the Slinky Shad so hard that I thought it was a
big snakehead.
117
The 2 Berkley Powerbait Swim Shad in Shad colour.

Perfect colour to match the hatch at my favourite spot.
Im sure it will match natural colours in other locations
as well. I had a few misses from juvenile snakeheads
on this little swimbait.
Here is a juvenile Tinfoil Barb/Lampam, taken on a popper

with some bread on the trebles .The Tinfoil Barbs in the
area were very sensitive, and chumming with some bread
to create a feeding frenzy was the only way to get them to
hit my popper with bread. For the lure purist, this may not
sit well but sometimes one need to be creative.
119
Bring Your Kids Fishing

Every child needs to spend time outdoors. Fishing in a safe and educational
sport that both your child and you can
bond with..
Put away those tabs, iPhones, Androids,
and pick up a reel, rod, line, hook, and
sinker... Dont forget some bait.
This Striped Snakehead is protecting its fry. I spotted
a few snakeheads hanging around this shallow area
which is packed with weeds. It is a good spot to target
with small soft plastics.
I hope 2016 will continue to go on very well for everyone.
Happy Fishing.

The updated VeritasTM series continues the tradition of

lightweight design and superior sensitivity with a renewed
focus on strength. By developing a Spiral Core Construction process with our 30 Ton graphite blanks, our engineers were able to significantly improve break strength
without increasing weight. Overall break strength improved an average 22% while tip strength increased by
over 30%.www.purefishingmalaysia.com
