I quite like the sinking version of the Ocea Pencil but not the surface option.  Neither would be a first choice for me though.

Gareth Branicki:
Mark  just curious about the  Penipen  been searching but even a mention is  hard to come across thats for sure how well does it cast at the moment have built up a semi popping collection which is probably tiny compared to most on here however I am now starting to look at stick baits  and really interested on the casting abiltiy of this  distance is a big factor for me presently  looking  at the ultimo stickbait (assume its the same as nomad AH custome stick bait) both dont have 140 gram at the  moment  .  But  defiantly interested in alternatives i have the Adtek goby and its great  any idear where to track one down would be great

Mark Harris:
Gareth, I am not sure the Penipen is available in Australia. Anyone know for sure?

It casts nicely in the 140 and 160 sizes. The small 110 does die a bit when cast on PE8 and PE10 I think, but might be OK on PE6. It is completely different to the Adhek Goby which is a surface lure best suited to flat water IMHO. This one swims in the sub-surface, and works well even in choppy seas.

If you know anyone coming to Bali I would happily source a few for you direct and hand them over. Cost about AUD30 a piece if ordered direct.  This is a very under-exposed quality stick.

Gareth Branicki:
Mark havent found it in australia found it as coming soon to an online store  defiantly interested in subsurface due to location unfortuantly no-one i know is  going to bali soon keen on the 140 and 160
cheers mark

Alex Jordan:
Can't speak for the Gunz but I have had some good success with baby runboh sinking - multiple doggies to 49KG - but bear in mind the wiring isn't super strong ... as a doggie nearly bit the end straight off one!
