Uncle Russ,
That post would've been worth hijacking the Zenaq thread. Terrible automated translations from Japanese to English provide me an endless source of entertainment. A great place to find some real doozies is PLAT. The guys who run it are great, but I think the translations are priceless.
Sadly I've been aflicted in the same way when it comes to cool Japanese tackle. It takes all I have to not buy a Wild Violence (as it would be utterly useless to me). However (hangs head in shame), I did pick up one of the new Coral Vipers............. how could I say no to that? If they come out with a "Rabid Capybara" I'll buy 2.
On another note, I have no idea what Shibuki means, but that is maybe the greatest lure name ever.
