JDM specialist too good not to share

 Just wanting to let you guys know of a discovery i made on a recent trip to Kuala Lumpur. While I was there, a mate of mine brought me to a tackle store named Anglers Central based in Petaling Jaya. Little did I know that this store is JDM heaven! Lots of mid-high end Japanese products at great prices. Reminded me of a recent trip to japan where i visited multiple tackle stores with rows and rows of lures and reels. Definitely worth a visit if any of you guys are in Malaysia.  Anyone else know of any other good tackle stores to visit in asia? I'll probably be making another quick trip to singapore and Kuala Lumpur and was thinking of doing a bit of shopping seeing as though the AUD$ is great at the moment!

 Anglers Central is in essence Tackle Source. I haven't been there but looking at the address it looks like Darren Chong's store but run by a different person. 

I spoke to AC before, they are affiliated to TS.

 Yup you're right. They have all the latest and greatest JDM toys.

 

Only problem is so out of the way....unless you drive yourself, it's pretty hard to get there..

When i was there last, met up with the guy that runs the joint. Really helpful fella and looked like he services reels and know what he is talking about too. Just check out the notes on their facebook. He has revived some pretty badly damaged reels. In saying that i'll be heading for a quick trip to Malaysia and singapore for family reasons so if any of you blokes would like anything, check out their fb page and send me a email on . I'm almost certain most tackle from there will be cheaper and selection will be better! Gonna load up on some lures for a fishing trip to karratha later in the year myself! Hoping to catch something fairly substantial like a nice GT or mackie!
