Always nice to come home to a TW package after a long Friday. My new Powell endurance 8ft punching stick and Concept with matching accents. I am in love with this one. Rod is so light yet still a beast! Perfect tip, not too stiff. Got rid of my 8ft Champion XPs cuz they were too heavy/clunky.

@Burros For many years that's all I used exclusively. Here lately I've found myself with more and more Powell's in the boat though. They fish way above their price point imo. I just picked up a 795 Max 3D brand new on Craigslist for $75 too! :cheer:

I thought the endurance line was coming back?   I could be wrong but I thought I read it somewhere.  I'm surprised the max line doesn't get the same love.  I had an endurance that broke and Powell replaced it with the max.  It was a light spinning rod.  I really like it and the max had an improved reel seat vs the endurance.  Maybe theres a bigger difference in the heavier models??

Haha I was thinking your combo seemed a bit much! You'll really like the 795, I love mine. May I suggest a Tatula HD, or even the new 150, over the Okuma? You can get some great deals out there on the HD right now

x2 on the Tatula HD200. I put one on my 795 and it pairs up very well. I spooled it with 20lb P-line PF.

Went out to buy some split rings.  I ended up with two Zara Spook Jr's., one Redeye Shad, and a couple packs of replacement treble hooks.  I forgot all about the split rings.

Another Walmart clearance find

IMG_0685999999999.thumb.jpg.abd3ff3ecdb9e6920b11ccd81ec50f66.jpg

Seaguar floro was $3, Spiderwire floro was $2.50 and all 3 packs of hooks were $2 each. Keep telling myself that I don't need anything else and Walmart keeps telling me I'm wrong.

This was a "XXX" Valentine's present from my wife B) 

It took a bit longer to get here than i'd expected, but the wait was worth it!  Exactly what i was wanting for jerkbaits and topwaters.  Pairing it up with the Aldebaran MG7 for a sweet duo!

Walmart has lost its dang mind with these deals. I was helping my brother out today when I traveled down to Delaware to fix his car. On my way back I stopped off at a Walmart in Parkesburg to pick up some duct tape for a project of my own. While I was there I checked out their fishing section. In the back of the aisle, in a box, where 3 Z Man Project Z chatter baits. I wasn't sure how much they cost so I took one up to the register and asked the guy to scan it. When he told me I ran back and grabbed the other 2.

Nice work!  One of our stores had about 3 dozen War Eagle Spinnerbaits of various configurations for $1.50 each last week.  Apparently some guy crated them all out in one box.  (It wasn't me, unfortunately).

Just found out the Easter bunny is bringing me a dobyns fury 735, some line conditioner, drop shot hooks, mag worm hooks, and 1320 yards of sunline assassin.

And 500 meters of braid!

My Walmart never has these dang deals!!!! NEVER!!!!!?

I’ve been stopping by 2 local Walmarts periodically over the last few weeks and finally found something worth picking up. The selection in the “clearance” section has been sparce as far as fishing stuff goes. Decided to stop at one on the way home today and found some hooks for $.75/pack and some fishing line for $2.

 

Also, came home to my new Saltist Back Bay LT that I ordered on Fleabay with the recent 15% off coupon. I’ll be putting this against my tried and true Stradic FK’s this year for my all-around Inshore set ups.

No sheet.  Here in tulsa our sales tax is 8.5% I believe, and all our teachers are walking out Monday.  We vote on medical marijuana in June.  Maybe that will bail us out.

Bought à 3:16 Mission Fish and Rising Son.  Excited to try SB fishing.  

Also, when I went to WM I bought some Chatter baits, Razor shad by Z man,  Christie craw and some hooks  all on half price clearance.

also ordered some Salad spoons by Mister twister, and some large grubs and paddle tails.  Found som 8 inch Zoom lizards at local store.
