Re: abu krills help!
The original Abu Krill was legendary as the Rolls Royce of spinners for bass, seatrout, mackerel and pollock but seems to have disappeared from the shelves at the end of the 80s. From what I can gather the high production costs were responsible for that but constant demand and cheaper manufacturing methods brought them back recently. Most are only copies from the far east and originals are hard to come by but here are a few links for you to check:
