Title: Icecream GT lures
Post by: Brian Haybittle on March 26, 2017, 05:53:48 AM

Hi guys
Wanting to get some GT Icecream lures shipped to NZ.
Would like to cast for GTs in South Pacific Islands and King Fish in NZ
Where is the good source and price for international shipping for these?
What colour and size for a 10ft shore cast rod with 80lb braid?
Cheers
Brian

Brian, these lures are freely available. You just need to check with the stores on postage to NZ

Hi Brian,

Check out Swannlures and Seal point lures on Facebook.

The later was the orginal designer of the GT ice cream, so you would be getting the real thing.

Both guys make great lures which are very popular amongst the local shore based kingfish fisherman in the Eastern cape of South Africa.

Popular sizes are between the 2 1/2 oz to 4 oz range for the shore based guys in SA.

Cheers
Barry

Hi yeah easy to get and fairly cheap. Jump on google.
Just change your rings and hooks as the terminals that came on mine were not great.
