Episode 95: Boomer Anchors

This week we are joined by Duncan Webster, the man behind this innovative product. Duncan designed the anchor after being frustrated at losing anchors when getting them stuck on reefy bottom while fishing the Queensland coast where he lives. The anchor has a breakaway system, meaning when the anchor is stuck, extra motor pressure will collapse the anchor via a shear pin, releasing it from the reef; it can then have a new shear pin inserted and can be used again straight away! We have a great chat with Duncan about how the idea came about, the different steps in improving the anchor and growing the business and also chat about his own fishing!

We also have a big announcement, we have launched the first All The Gear But No Idea T Shirts, which are available for pre order and will be in stock early in the new year. There is also a few days left in the November Surf Fishing Photo comp wo get your last entries in for that to try and win a great prize pack thanks to Savage Tackle.
