 Bought a new Shimano Symetre 2500 at Gander Mountain Saturday night.  Went back to buy some 8 pound Sufix Elite mono for it.  Also bought some ten pound Sufix Elite mono.  So this season I will have my Stradic CI4+ spinning reel with eight pound fluorocarbon and my new Symetre with eight pound Sufix mono.  The battle begins on which line catches the most bass.  Also bought some Sufix braid even though I'm not a big braid fan.

Made my first TW purchase ever, and found out they have to ship to the billing address for your first order, so my wife is gonna find out (unless I can sneak home that day and grab them).  I was trying to ship to the office and they called me and said it was a no-go on the first order.  Almost canceled it, but will just ship it on home.  

New heavy cover bass and catfish setup: AG 6500 C3/AG Vengeance 7'6" Heavy

New all-purpose bass set up: Lew's BB-1 Pro Series speed spool cast reel/Falcon Lowrider 20 split cast rod 6'10" MH

Seaguar Smackdown Braid Green 50lb

Had some equipment issues this weekend with some older gear, so need to start slowly upgrading and replacing so I'm not stuck on one reel most of the time.

When you get the tracking number call UPS and have them hold it at their local facility until you can pick it up.

Hi, my name is Scott and I'm addicted to dropshot rods.  I haven't even caught a fish on the last one I acquired and just last week, another blank showed up.  This one is a 5S610MLXF-G.......the forest green pearl one.

Very nice!  

Are you going to get the Trick painted?

My new addition from the Expo at the Classic. I was doing so good not spending any money until I saw the swimbaits. The new Duel Ninja Glider 180SS. It looks as nice in the water as it does in the box too. 

[Jrob78]

That's a nice looking bait!  I've seen several Duel baits recently that looked really good, might have to check them out.

They had a couple jointed wakebaits with props on the back that looked great also. A few of their other baits looked nice but I was very singularly focused once I saw they had that glide available. TW has them in stock. Something about the Golden Shiner color is calling me, probably because you just don't see many solid lime green swimbaits.

They do have a few odd colors on those baits.  You don't see many swimbaits with metallic gold either.   Looks like a good bait to add to the small glide bait box.

Hey, thanks man. No, the Trick I am very pleased with as is. I've been wanting that Ayu color for a while. Now I need an Ochiayu but it's hard to come by !

Salmo Lil' Bugs picked up in January at a nice tackle store in Bucharest. I'm really impressed with these and can't wait to use them in the pond. I don't believe they're available in the US, but can be found on online auction sites. 

These new Salmo Bass Bug are being sold in the US and look like they will be an absolute blast to use!

My Stradic FK should be here today..... <insert hyper-ventilating>

Grabbed the Johnny Morris baitcaster combo for $99.  Then Sebile had buy one get one. Next was use some rewards at BPS to try two of Berkleys new crankbaits- Wild Thang and Pitbull.  Surprisingly BPS had these at TW prices.  

[Weld's Largemouth]

I dont think this qualifies as tackle but Im sure the bait monkey was involved somehow

Looks a little like a gift you might see at a bridal shower. 

***** i'd talk rings, flowers and dresses for a minute if that was my consolation prize!

[atcoha]

Some sexy jewelry for my new swimbait rod that should be done very soon. I hope so, at least. The wait is getting expensive. Actually, the bait monkey has just moved right into my house.
