Won the culprit but bought the other stuff through gander with that $10 gift coupon

I've been avoiding the monkey for quite some time. It caught up to me this weekend. My local Ollie's had 25% off fishing gear. Bringing these Lucky Craft lures down to $5.24. I was surprised to see Staysees 90 included on the racks. Looking forward to trying it out this fall.

Can’t wait to throw these baits!

Everyone dogs that live target sunfish. I actually caught a really nice 3-4lber on it. It's the easiest bait I've ever walked in my life.

I will agree, way easy to walk.  And you can keep it in the same general spot for multiple twitches.  Only complaint: After quite a few strikes, mine has gotten to where the body of the bait doesn't want to stay in its normal posture, and I have to manipulate it to get it back to normal.  It kind of gets "flattened" against the hook.

I’ve owned the 3” version for almost two years and that lure has had far more bites than any other topwater lure I own. I’ve had fish do acrobatic stunts to crush this gem. The 3.5” should add a little more bulk and weight for my shore casting haunts. 

 

Everyone dogs the Livetarget Squarebill Bait ball series lure too, but that’s been my #1 producing hard lure. It’s cool with me

I was just about to place an order with Tackle Warehouse, but then I was thinking it is Labor Day weekend soon. Does anybody know if they have a sale for Labor Day?

40 days, that feels like forever. Imagine how we feel we have to wait 40 days and a week to see the vids.

I'm officially dubbing this moment an "enthusiast awakening."

Congrats but also I'm sorry, because that combo is going to ruin "lower end" gear for you. Prepare your wallet for the impending high end gear buying spree that just might last the rest of your life.

Omg I’m already in love haha. Specially with the new rod ! The orochi is amazing , it’s so sensitive that I feel every little tick of grass or thump of worm. I feel myself setting hooks on reaction. Like my mind is saying hey something felt off and my body just sets the hook and what do you know , a fish !
