Norwegion Fishing invention

[Calvin Fourie]

I have seen this thing a couple of times on ESA and it seems to work like a bomb. It's a little flashing device that you can attach to your lures or bait that emits the same frequency as a squid or dying fish. Havn't seen it in the shops yet. If anyone has any additional info or knows where to buy them please help. I really want to give this thing a try

 

[Boertjie]

Lowrance SA sell them

 

[Calvin Fourie]

awsome! whereabout is there shop or must I order them?

 

[Boertjie]

Give them a call, this is what the guy replied to me:

"Yes, we import the Esca's. They sell at R 228.00 each. There are 2 colours
(green and blue) each in 2 versions (fading and multi-blinking)

You need to speak with Wayne to discuss which one is the right one for your
type of fishing (031) 368-6649

Postage will be app. R 58.00 for priority mail (depending on how many you
take).

How does this little thing power itself? ie is it battery powered or kinetic. I always thought something that could send out this sort of signal would be killer

Saw a couple of them yesterday at Solly's (Pta branch). Same price, R228.

At that price I scheme I'm gonna throw my gate remote at a few toothies. Looks like it. LOL. At R228 that thing will bring you to your knees if you lose it. I'm old school. I don't know how bad you really need to catch fish to use that esca. Buy some Gulp minnows. At least you'll have 10 or 12 chances. Brave okes.

it has a hunderd hr life span, activates when it hits the water, then deactivates when dry, green one for rock and surf, blue one for deep sea, imates signal of squid and bait fish

We have stock of the blue blinking and green fading.  New stock should arrive in a week or two. R210

I got one of these a while back and dying to give it a bash on the Yellowtail one day when they decide to bite around Cape Point!

Nobody has said a word if they work or not.

Any experience and success?

 

[Calvin Fourie]

Sorry about the late reply my internet was down. Thanks for all the advice I think I definately wanna give this thing a try. I wish you all success for the upcoming sardine run.
Very tight lines!:ssswim:

Hook up on those onto a flasher while spearfishing. Mmmmm...........

 

[Calvin Fourie]

Sounds like a plan. Only one prob I don't got a spear gun but I always wanted to try spear fishing it looks awsum just not so sure about those big taxmen patrolling our coast

Get a Shark pod R3500 odd from Natal Sharks Board. A lot cheaper than a wooden leg.
