Has anyone got any updates as to when they will be available to the rest of us non pro staffers. And the ones that dont live in Japan or willing to pay 15 bucks a bag from Japan. .I have a bag of the flappin hogs and let me just say wow . cant wait to use em Saturday on the Delta . I got lucky and was at the right place at the right time and want more, greed I guess! My friend wont get rid of anymore trust me I tried. The swimmin senko looks bad arse as well(he wouldnt give me any of those) cant wait to skip those babies under docks. All he said was this fall is what he heard,hes not a pro staffer just a guy that traveled to Japan for a wedding or I would have been all over it. lol

I think the various writeups have November as the targeted month for release to us non-promotional staffers...
But, you can bet there will be a "run on the bank" at that time so be prepared to hear they are "sold out" of certain colors if you're not among the early birds.
My buddy in Tokyo sent me several bags of the hogs. One thing for certain the bass in Clear Lake DO NOT like these so I wouldn't even bother with them there
I'm heading to Tokyo at the end of the month for a week on business and I'll be bringing an empty suitcase to bring back a good supply of baits available there. I just hope I can get through customs with all those hooks
I know it can be a haslle to get through there.I wanna say there is $$$ value amount of what you can claim but could be wrong. I just wish the friend I had that goes there on business was a fisherman. If I were you while you are there, just ship em to my adress and I will make sure to get them to you upon return home. har har

I hope the Japanese Customs and Imigration turns you right around and deports you back to the USA with no Hogs. I want to be selfish and keep them here and not be sent back to you guys! I want them all to myself!!!!
Say hello while you are here. I am about 1 hour from tokyo.
