Got some cabelas gift cards for Christmas so yesterday I managed to get ahold of a new rod. Cabelas prodigy walleye series spinning, 7’6” medium. I’m a shorter guy but like longer rods so this should cast a drop shot well and work for controlling big smallies on light line. Nice light rod that fits a Pflueger president perfectly, now I just have to wait a few months to use it.

Pretty soon I will have a Dobyns Sierra 692 in hand. Really looking forward to this and it should pair nicely with the slider heads I toss all the time. 

 

Also ordered a couple of Berkley Warpigs to try out along with a couple of bags of ugly otters and a bag of cane thumpers that I had removed from my cart the last 3 years, figured it was time lol.

I caught a 5.8lb bass on a warpig this springtime. She literally almost swallowed it. Double hooked just outside the gullet. I think thats what they call it.

What is that in the middle? It looks like a textured skirt. There's an orange skirt to its right, green skirt to the left, purple skirt diagonally below it to left.

1/2 Z-Man Flip-N-Cast in California Craw.  The football head jig has the same textured skirt.

I got 3 topwaters and a castable fish finder for Christmas. Not a bad holiday haul.

And I just remembered all the jig heads and skirts I ordered from Ebay and the other order from Fishingskirts that was just delivered.............................................

The bait monkey didn't get it was one of our own. I blame you @Abby debating between the 703sf, 806sb or 704c.

 

Anyone have experience with the new Tatula Shakeyhead spinning rod? More sensitive than a Fury?

I am waiting on Dobyns 705CB, assortment of crankbaits and some Plano Storage boxes. Just received a Diawa Fuego CT 6.3:1

My cabelas order came in, 

5 packs of SK swim n shiners 

2 packs of SK rodents

1 pack missile baits baby d bombs 

2 packs of brush hogs 

2 river2sea spinnerbaits 

6th sense quake thud 70

6th sense crush 100x

2 packs of VMC 4/0 hooks.

Guess the bait monkey got his revenge for my abstinence during Black Friday.

 Last October my old, worn out, heavily fished and almost without any paint left 7" slammer meet his end in a poor judged cast against a bridge pillar...  so, time to get a couple new ones:

Got $75 in BPS gift cards, so we made the trip out to Auburn to redeem them.  It's VERY hard to buy things, since I have pretty much all I need and then some, but came up with a few redundant tools plus some baits and boxes.

@J Francho, been thinking about adding some taco clips to the kayak to hold my net and paddle.  What boat are you in?

 

Also, I have that same pair of split ring pliers/cutter.  I'm pretty happy with it so far.

The clip is for my girlfriend's boat, Wildy Commnder 140.  I'm rolling in a Hobie Compass Mirage Drive.  Good to know about the cutters.  Hopefully it replaces two tools while on the water.

@J Francho, she's beautiful.  I've seen the compass handle 2' chop like a champ, and despite the length of 12' they keep up with my PA14 well.  The new Outback outruns me, slightly.

 

I don't think I'll be grabbing another PA14 when it's time for a new one, I like the hull of the compass, the price, and the blank slate for upgrading.  Planning on getting my fiancee one this year.

Here's a shot of it.  Reminds a bit of my OG PBG:

I shook off the bait monkey so far....Only bought 3 reels, 1 rod, couple spools of line, and some treble hooks.

 

Got to look thru my lures before facing the bait monkey's tempting offerings.
