Slefler Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 Went to a local tackle store I just found out about and they had Lucky Craft hardbaits at 10% off. Picked up... Pointer 100SP in Sexy Chartreuse Shad Pointer 100SP in Aurora Black Staysee 90SP Ver. 2 in Aurora Gold They also had a Shimano Curado G6 for 10% off but somehow I overpowered the bait monkey and laid off.

einscodek Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 After complaining about how much tackle everyones got I sucumbed and bought a couple Hudd-gills and Hudd-shads Now if spring would hurry along.. Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted January 24, 2015 Super User Posted January 24, 2015 Weld's, If you are buying the 4.8 fat impacts to use a swim jig trailer for the dirty jigs swim jigs I would suggest the 3.8. Lots of tail grabs and swipes at the 4.8 by fish not taking the bait. I use the 4.8 on the beefed up flip and swim style heads vs the thinner and smaller profile bullet or northern style heads. Just a suggestion from my own findings... Quote
Super User Gundog Posted January 24, 2015 Super User Posted January 24, 2015 The Bait monkey and I have been working on HIS next order   Cardiff 401A!!!! Awesome reel. I got a 301A on my flippin' stick to power the bass outta the grass. 1 Quote
Super User FishTank Posted January 24, 2015 Super User Posted January 24, 2015 I picked some new duds to fish in. I got a shirt from howler brothers and a pair of kuhl convertible pants. I tried them on and my wife said I don't dress this nice when we go out to dinner, the fish we be impressed. I got new boots on the way too. She's going to put me on the couch. I guess you also have to dress the bait monkey well. Quote
Brnnoser6983 Posted January 24, 2015 Posted January 24, 2015 My latest purchase(s).... But I promiss I am done until I get my musky combo... (Fingers crossed) Quote

Super User kickerfish1 Posted January 24, 2015 Super User Posted January 24, 2015 That is how my thinking is when considering swim jig trailers. The Dirty Jigs California style swim jigs can support a 3.8 or 4.8 fat swing impact. They have stout and bigger hooks, more skirt material, and a bigger profile. The more slender, thinner skirted, and smaller hooked bullet or finesse style swimjigs I prefer smaller trailers on. Really like the Keitech swimg impact in the 3.5 inch size. Male perch or pro staff special would be matches for the jig on your mock order. My general philosophy with Keitech baits as trailers... 3.5 Swing impact - For finesse bullet head style swim jigs 4.8 fat impact- California style or flip and swim style heads 3.8 fat impact - Can be used on any style of swim jig great compromise between the two above Just my thoughts. Your findings may vary... Quote

When comparing the two it seems the regular one has a bigger profile actually.. http://www.***.com/Dirty_Jigs_Swim_Jig/descpage-DTYJGSJ.html Versus the calif one but it could just be the photo http://www.***.com/Dirty_Jigs_California_Swim_Jig/descpage-DJCALSJ.html Quote

Super User Gundog Posted January 25, 2015 Super User Posted January 25, 2015 After digging out of some snow we had here in PA I decided to got to a outdoor show in Bloomsburg. Picked up some Moaner weighted 3/0 hooks to try the rage rig this fishing season (if it ever gets here). I also found some Thomas spinners for sale for only 2 bucks each. Picked up two of them.  BTW the tackle monkey is soooo lazy he didn't even help me shovel the snow this morning. He just kept telling me I should buy a snow blower and get the neighbor kid to run it. Quote
