It's rough but I fish from the bank mostly so it's perfect for that. 2 Quote

Super User MassYak85 Posted January 27, 2017 Super User Posted January 27, 2017 I've been holding off the bait monkey but the reel monkey is tugging on my arm. Carbontex sheet to make some drag washers and a second spool for my Cardiff came a couple days ago. Quote

Super User NorcalBassin Posted January 28, 2017 Super User Posted January 28, 2017 Finally came across a Mattlures Hardgill I had to pull the trigger on. Can't wait to get back out on the water! Â 7 Quote
S. Sass Posted January 28, 2017 Posted January 28, 2017 Did a stop in at Academy and found these on the clearance rack. I couldn't pass up Mann's baby - minus for $2.98 and Xcaliburs for $1.98. Â The 2 bags of Sapphire Pit Boss I had previously ordered from Gander Mountain and picked them up while was in the area. Â 4 Quote

mllrtm79 Posted January 28, 2017 Posted January 28, 2017 I got in and out of Gander mountain last night with only a couple jointed jigs, a underspin and a package of T-stops... Since I only had ten minutes before the movie started I thought that was a good time to stop in. Quote
Super User kickerfish1 Posted January 29, 2017 Super User Posted January 29, 2017 Shimano Stradic FK 2500. American Legacy has the reel on sale for $139. Went ahead and ordered one as that is nice price on that reel. Going to pair it with a ALX Zolo B Maestro spinning rod which never really had a good mate for it. Should see it in a week or so and will take some photos then. 2 Quote

npl_texas Posted January 29, 2017 Posted January 29, 2017 Wal-Mart had all the gammy hooks for $.75!  I bought somewhere in the neighborhood of 30 packs.  3/0, 4/0, 5/0, 3/0 weighted --  all offset ewg, some super wire (? I think)  Got a SK buzz bait for $1 (Bleeding shad), a Hackney jig for $.75.  A bunch of stuff on clearance.  A local Facebook group had a bunch of people getting the KVD 1.5 squarebills for $1, they were all out.  Looks like they are not going to carry them and have added a ton of Mustad. 5 Quote

Dam, would of been sweet to come across a whole peg or two of 1.5 for a buck. Would of bought every one of em and at least sold the duplicates to my buddies for 3 bucks lol. Actually whenever I fill a bag of stuff I don't want anymore I take it to the lake and give it to the kids I come across till its gone. Makes me feel good to see how excited they get. Anywho I'm on my walk and was goin to wally world when done so I will c what they got. 1 Quote
