Rep Power: 5  | Interesting News New PE line from Shimano. Dunno if it will ever reach our shores or not though. DSM - DSM Dyneema - DSM Dyneema and Shimano collaborate on high-tech fishing lines to help sportsmen land that most wanted catch Appears that Pro Gear may have gone under ... in the US at least. Read on another forum that they are undergoing some restructuring, so the phoenix may rise from the ashes in the future  Pro Gear Reels On the local front ..... someone told me Fishing Buddy just opened a branch in Marine Parade? One of the HDB shop houses at Blk 57 Marine Terrace near the CHIJ? Has anyone seen the shop? Last edited by Makaira : 22-06-2007 at 07:26 PM. |

Rep Power: 4 | Re: Interesting News I don’t want to rub it in here; however from the design of Pro Gear Oceanus 30, you don’t need a fortune teller to predict its fate. I reiterate my view here, that the manufacturer simply left the design works of the reel to the CNC machinists and draughtsman. For example, the number of screws to assemble the drag disk of Pro Gear Oceanus 30 reflects a lack of resources, commitments and analytical abilities to manufacture reliable and durable reels. It’s simply sad to see an initially promising company like Pro Gear folded up in this manner. |
