fisherrw Posted December 10, 2015 Posted December 10, 2015 I have never been able to bring myself to PAY for the opportunity to give a company free advertising space on my body. that may be true but I look at is as 6 bucks for a pretty decent tee shirt your down too thrift shop pricing right there and you get a brand new shirt! 4 Quote
Super User Jrob78 Posted December 10, 2015 Super User Posted December 10, 2015 I've got a bunch of TW t-shirts and I wear them. That's one company I don't mind giving free advertisement to. 2 Quote
Big C Posted December 10, 2015 Posted December 10, 2015 Every time you wear a pair of Nikes, a Columbia jacket, or a hat from your favorite sports team. You are giving them free advertisment, Quote
Super User Senko lover Posted December 10, 2015 Super User Posted December 10, 2015 Almost anything these days that you're wearing is gonna be an advertisement...... 3 Quote
Super User slonezp Posted December 10, 2015 Super User Posted December 10, 2015 I have never been able to bring myself to PAY for the opportunity to give a company free advertising space on my body. Seeing me shirtless on the water is not a pretty sight 3 Quote
Super User slonezp Posted December 11, 2015 Super User Posted December 11, 2015 Back to topic Still waiting on another $50 of plastics from TW. Ordered some stuff from Outlet Bait and Tackle and Amazon this morning. Working out something with Siebert Jigs as well What I got so far: 2 Quote
Super User iabass8 Posted December 11, 2015 Super User Posted December 11, 2015 I have never been able to bring myself to PAY for the opportunity to give a company free advertising space on my body. So you don't wear any store bought clothes with a brand name? TW is just one of those companies that has earned such an amazing reputation that you would be hard pressed to find a single person that would ever mock somebody for wearing their clothing. 2 Quote
Super User Master Bait'r Posted December 11, 2015 Author Super User Posted December 11, 2015 I've been bad. Another prop darter in chart back bass Another trick darter, this one in Pro Blue And a pair of 110 Jrs Baby Kingyo Baby Gill Merry Christmas to me! 4 Quote

It isn't even a company reputation to me... Anytime I see TW gear or stickers I give the point and wink "jeep wave" because I know that dude feels the grip of the monkey all too well. 5 Quote

Evan K Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 that may be true but I look at is as 6 bucks for a pretty decent tee shirt your down too thrift shop pricing right there and you get a brand new shirt! Ah sure! I'm not criticizing anyone's choice. Just expressing my opinion. When it really gets to me is when that stuff costs big $. For that price it makes sense. So you don't wear any store bought clothes with a brand name? TW is just one of those companies that has earned such an amazing reputation that you would be hard pressed to find a single person that would ever mock somebody for wearing their clothing. No mocking here! And no, I don't wear anything that's heavily branded. Just a personal choice. It isn't even a company reputation to me... Anytime I see TW gear or stickers I give the point and wink "jeep wave" because I know that dude feels the grip of the monkey all too well. Lol, good point! 1 Quote

Big C Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 Got some goodies in. Never mind the mess. Is "Butter Rich" the new Megastrike flavor? 1 Quote
Super User buzzed bait Posted December 11, 2015 Super User Posted December 11, 2015 Is "Butter Rich" the new Megastrike flavor? is basically a deadly narcotic concentrated blend of berkley powerbait/megastrike potion for humans.... 2 Quote
Super User iabass8 Posted December 11, 2015 Super User Posted December 11, 2015 Anybody order from BTD and receive their order yet? I know they are notoriously slow this time of year and shipping is lengthy. I ordered some stuff on the 7th and haven't heard anything back as far as shipping and nobody is answering their phones.

LittleBob Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 Just got my box of my rico blems and trebles today along with some new split ring pliers... Had a box come last week from the black Friday sale also that had some new squarebills and lipless cranks I have been wanting to try as well as some Plano 3707's. I also stocked up on my Missile Bait tomahawks and destroyers during the sale Quote
Super User Senko lover Posted December 12, 2015 Super User Posted December 12, 2015 Several combined purchases. I have some backordered tungsten coming in as well and other stuff I forgot to take pics of. 3 Quote
Evan K Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 Several combined purchases. I have some backordered tungsten coming in as well and other stuff I forgot to take pics of. What's the story on the giant bag of miscellaneous plastics? Looks like a haul! Quote
Super User Senko lover Posted December 12, 2015 Super User Posted December 12, 2015 What's the story on the giant bag of miscellaneous plastics? Looks like a haul! There's an older man in my church who has been fishing tourneys almost all of his life, fished FLW as a coangler for a long time. When he first started out he bought literally one of everything in every color, and has over the year amassed an enormous garage full of stuff. He gives as much of it as I want for 1/3 the price, and most often he just gives it to me. They're all old baits but perfectly functional. That bag is FULL of tubes, old craws, and floating worms. 1 Quote

Super User NorcalBassin Posted December 12, 2015 Super User Posted December 12, 2015 Anybody order from BTD and receive their order yet? I know they are notoriously slow this time of year and shipping is lengthy. I ordered some stuff on the 7th and haven't heard anything back as far as shipping and nobody is answering their phones. Once they dropped to 40% for the whole site I got the bad feeling they may be going out of business unless they're just dumping stock for a planned move. I'm not on Facebook or Twitter, but after a quick scan it doesn't appear like they're moving and they've been inactive on both since 11/19. Even during the 20% sales of years past I'd just randomly receive a package a couple weeks after ordering without ever receiving any notification, so you're probably just going to be pleasantly surprised when your order arrives one day soon. Hopefully. Quote
BradGuenette Posted December 12, 2015 Posted December 12, 2015 My first set of Hudds arrived, 8" weedless ROF5&12 3 Quote
Super User Jrob78 Posted December 12, 2015 Super User Posted December 12, 2015 I picked these up to fish with small grubs, Swing Impacts and small Spark Shad. I couldn't find them anywhere in the states but I just noticed that Greenfish Tackle makes a similar bait with a different blade placement. 2 Quote
