HazeRVA Posted January 6, 2020 Posted January 6, 2020 Picked up my first piece of rain gear with some BPS gift cards. Got a Columbia Watertight II with OmniTech after reading good things about the OmniTech here.

galyonj Posted January 6, 2020 Posted January 6, 2020 6thsense order came in right as I got home. So that's pretty sweet.  I got:  Crush 100X - Backwater Bluegill Crush 100X - Black Magic Movement 80X - Black Magic Movement 80X - Threadfin Shad Provoke 106X - 4K Shad Provoke 106X - Chartreuse Pearl   7 Quote
galyonj Posted January 6, 2020 Posted January 6, 2020 Super sweet. I'm excited about playing with the black magic cranks. Quote
Joe_w1234 Posted January 7, 2020 Posted January 7, 2020 I recently got a few of their quake lipless baits, and they are beautiful. I can’t wait to throw them this year? Quote
galyonj Posted January 7, 2020 Posted January 7, 2020 I got a couple of the THUD models a little while back. They're true to the name. Super deep knock, comparatively speaking. Quote
walleyecrazy Posted January 7, 2020 Posted January 7, 2020 Those Provokes have become my favorite jerkbaits over the past year. I caught a ton of fish on the perch color last spring. 3 Quote

Super User Cgolf Posted January 9, 2020 Super User Posted January 9, 2020 Well I got my 25 days order and thanks to @A-Jay advice I got some more trebles. Unfortunately the Gamakatsu ones he suggested were sold out so I got some standard EWG trebles to try.  as for the jerkbaits, since I became proficient with them last year, I picked up a bunch of the shadow rap series on an earlier sale, and took advantage of the 25 days sale to add some higher ticket jerks.  How come when we become proficient at a tactic do we need to add like 30 more baits to our boxes??? 7 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted January 9, 2020 Super User Posted January 9, 2020 Nice Selection ~ Point of interest: you may find that when replacing jerkbait trebles with 'standard' and not short shank length trebles, the hooks might come together & tangle; especially if you plus sized them at all. btw- I'm digging that 130 perch pattern . . . A-Jay Quote
Super User Cgolf Posted January 9, 2020 Super User Posted January 9, 2020 Unfortunately the pic came in upside down, but I thought I ordered the 1x 2x short mustard hooks you suggested, but looking at them, they are only slightly shorter than the gamakatsu standards. Did they send me the wrong ones? Just checked the part numbers on the mustads and they match the site at least.  That Jackall perch pattern is amazing. They have just the right amount of orange, most companies overdue the orange. Quote
ohboyitsrobby Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 The top one is the first part of my tackle warehouse 25 days order. The second one is stuff I found in a box on the trash route we run at work. I was like YEEAHH!! 6 Quote

As for the Mustads - I use TG76NP-BN - can't read these packs pictured, but if that's the same # - I think you're good. A-Jay 2 Quote
pauldconyers Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Hey A-Jay, speaking of the TG76NP-BN I am having just a ridiculous time finding any in size 1 in RED as Tackle Warehouse is out. Thought a simple Google search would do it but nope. Being such a fan of these hooks like I am I was curious if you had any ideas? Quote
Super User MN Fisher Posted January 10, 2020 Super User Posted January 10, 2020 I'm not A-Jay, but Amazon has them https://www.amazon.com/Mustad-UltraPoint-Triple-Treble-Strong/dp/B00AU5T8HQ?th=1&psc=1 Â 1 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted January 10, 2020 Super User Posted January 10, 2020 For whatever reason that size 1 is MIA ?  The Only place I've seen them currently is here . . . but you'll pay to play  https://www.amazon.com/Mustad-UltraPoint-Triple-Treble-Strong/dp/B00AU5T8HQ/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=Mustad%2BKVD%2BElite%2BShort%2BShank%2BTreble%2BRed&qid=1578614729&sr=8-2&th=1&psc=1 btw - I just purchased 2 pks - 6 left  A-Jay Quote
pauldconyers Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 Yeah, $7.22 for a 6 pack is not very good at all. TW had the 11 pack on sale for $4.18 so I would be cool with buying just 1 or 2 packs of 11 and back ordering them if they were just out of stock. Called TW and they said there was not an option to back order because the product was discontinued. That answer sounded fishy to me but that what I was told. Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted January 10, 2020 Super User Posted January 10, 2020 Well, as a man who has been down this road before, my advice is if you like the hook, pay a little more for it now while you can get it. Because once it's gone - if you are able to purchase them, it will Be a Lot More $$$$. And I didn't realize that the red was being discontinued - makes sense now. Just now (like 2 minutes ago) finished loading up on size 2 & 4 from TW so if they do go bye bye - I should be good For A-While. Thanks for the heads up. A-Jay Quote
pauldconyers Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 Yeah, that's what I did too. They had size 1 available and I was going to add it to my order and place it one night but I was tired and said I would do it in the morning. Woke up and it was sold out. LITERALLY you snooze you lose!!! 1 Quote
