And yarp, fishing gear is damn expensive here thus I hardly ever buy anything not heavily discounted. Even the usual sale-prices are higher than the RRP (in USD).
If only I had a room with space for tools and such I would be making all my lures myself. Maybe even sell some. Especially the prices people pay for handmade jerkbaits is crazy (50+ USD easily).
