hmm
Why?

(I presume YipD is referring to the Shimano T-Curve Deep Jig 400, and I don't think they sell that in Sinagpore)

i no u cant get the rod there but u can get the reel

He Probally just means the reel. rods are probally a bit harder to get home if his mum isnt wanting to lug a tube around.

Sorry i didnt see the last post guys. I was in Singapore a couple of months back and there were tackle shops everywhere were Shimano is there big brand. She might need to look around but i would think so.

The rod I mentioned is the bluewater T-curve which is just released a month ago. The rod is 7'6" in length which is longer than the deep jig 400(5'6" I believe). Why get the reel in singapore, I just been to HK, Singapore and Japn for work trip and the torsa over there is just about the same price so I decided to get one local and with 10 years warrantly!!! Just spent $1500+ today but I think the reel shall worth the $$$$

hmm
still asking
why would you get a torsa stella boy?

just wondering

[STELLA BOY]

i was there when u where.i go to 1 shop cos i no the guy who works there and he gets the reel i wont in 4 me.

[kay-c]

In fact, just so i can help you answer your question YipD, on what i think of the reel, why did you get it to match it with a rod like that?

[STELLA BOY]

cos im getting into jiging

[kay-c]

oh, okay
was just wondering
didn't quite think it was too suitable for a bream reel

why dont you get a stella instead, stella boy?

Hi,

I could be wrong but from what i have heard, the torsa is not sold in Singapore as yet. It has been estimated to be released in feb or march in singapore. As for tackle shops in Singapore, head down to beach road and you shld be able to get what u need. thats where the whole row of tackle shops are situated.
