Buying S.P from the states - beware

[stonecold]

Just a short note to give Ausfish members the heads up on importing S.P from the states. I'm not sure if AQIS have some new guidelines or been given a tip off on this one.
I love bass fishing and I love making my own bits to catch them with. I often find lures or jigs in the states that I cant get from my local tackle shop or by mail order in Australia. I recently purchased some jigs and skirts online from a store in the states. While looking at their range I found some 7 inch berkly gulp jerkshad which looked good for snapper. Not having seen these in Oz I grabbed a couple of packs.

Heres the thing....I know have in my hot little hand a letter from AQIS stating that,

I have had some plastic zooms from the US which have been temporarily quarrantined and tested to check for organic matter. I eventually go them back with some of the tail snipped off ofr testing. probably they were testing or drugs of something but they have a job to do.

Or maybe the employees are taking confiscated items home for their own personal use?????

YOU NEVER KNOW!
