Went to 2 new ponds today.  They were about an hour away in an area that I didn't really know and on the way to the second one, we drove past a Gander Mountain that I didn't know existed.  I've been to BPS before but never Gander Mountain.  It wasn't quite as nice as BPS and didn't have as big a selection but it was nice enough.  Still a trip to an oversized tackle store so it was a good experience.  Here's what I bought:

 

SK Red Eye Shad in Green Tomato

Jitterbug in Black

Scatter Rap Shad in Bleak

Scatter Rap Crank in Blue Back Herring

Terminator Pro Series Jig in Blue

1 Pack Berkley Havoc Pit Boss in Sapphire Blue

1 Pack Rage Tail Thumper in Red Bug

Owner 4/0 Offset Worm Hooks

Fishouflage hat in Bass Pattern

Found a great deal from a fellow BR member on an AVID 6'8MXF spinning rod and a Crucial casting rod

Just bought 3 Bomber Square Bills, 1 Robo Worm 4 1/2" Aaron's Magic Green, SK Super Fluke Houdini, SK Super Fluke White Ice and my first package of SK 1/4 Tungsten bullet weights.

 

But I have to now buy another River 2 Sea Spinnerbait in White/Cht as a big pike took off with it today.  He must've been in the 30-40" range, I just threw out my remaining Berkley Vanish Floro because I used it as a leader and the knot slipped. That is it for me, can't handle it anymore.  Biggest regret on paying for the crap.  I have had no issues with P Line or Mono leaders ever.  2nd time for me the knot slipped, first time thought it was me, this time it can't be coincidence. Another DON'T BUY THIS!

Just got this in the mail. Had to have one.

I have a plano box full of different sizes of them, pretty cool baits!

Having a good run with it so far. I've got some of the more normal looking Zeal lures, but I've wanted this guy for a while. I'm hoping it will be a snakehead slayer.

Bought a $5 dollar scratch off.  Didn't win anything though.  I don't know why I keep buying these things.  They always cheat.

Our Dick's finally has subwoofers. Going to give these a try as a swim jig alternative to the 5in grub.

On my way back from the Rolling Stones concert in Toronto I stopped off at the Bass Pro just outside of the city and bought some of those scatter rap Rapalas -- some crankbaits, minnows and countdowns -- plus some plastics (Havoc Pit Bosses and some 4" Senkos), some flies and poppers in the fly shop...it was actually a surprisingly inexpensive day (well, relatively speaking).

Getting ready for the Skeeter Owners Tournament on Lake Fork. Fish there are in a Solid post-spawn pattern so the order of the day will be secondary lake points cover water from 1-5 feet ... which means square bill shallow cranks for me ... Here is the fruit I picked up from Cableas today:

All those listed are in shad patterns

River2Sea - Ish Monroe's Bumpin Rattle-Fast Floater.

Rapala Scatter raps

Also a Rapala .... A Xtreme shallow slashbait.

3 weeks ago I bought a boat

Ha!  Everyone else says 'I bought some baits' or 'I got a new reel'.  This guy says 'oh you know, picked up a boat the other day'.  I think you win, draggin.  Congrats on the new boat!

I bought 4 Bomber Square Bills on clearance at Sail and 4 XCalibur Lipless cranks.  Bought them all for 27 bucks, were on clearance for 3 bucks a piece.

Local Wal-Mart had Abu Garcia Vendetta gen.1 rods on clearance for $30. I have been wanting a something a little shorter than my 7' Avid "in the cone" drop shot rod, it's not something I do often so for $30 ................why not. Now I will have to get an Abu spinning reel, my OCD will NOT let me slap one of my Shimano's on it. LOL

I was thinking of grabbing one too, local retail store has them on sale for 49 though.  If it were 30 I probably would've jumped all over it.  I probably will still buy one as I'm in the market for a dedicated spinnerbait rod.  It's funny about your OCD.  I refused to put my Shimanos on my lone Daiwa T Rod..lol

3 bags of Vixen finess worms in "main vein" color .  Will use them drop shoting.
