The GDash is a phenomenal lure IMO - and I thought I bought all the Gachi Gill ones  I've had fun fishing them here in OH

I ordered it off of Amazon.  I had a gift card from work and it was around $30 instead of $60 - $80. Basically I payed $5 out of pocket for it. It's an amazingly well made bait.

There was a brief moment that I came across stock of them on minor sale - my wallet jumped out of my hands and emptied itself. The action is great slow, fast, 180s, cool little fish

I got a Shimano nasty reel for UL fishing and I couldn't find right rod and after looking around I found out the nasci rods not sold in US and only in Europe they have them, So I ordered one from Italy and today I got it and paired with the reel. It is one of my coolest combo. I have short video on it on YouTube if you want to see it better.

 

here s the clip:

 

 

Sorry for horrible clip, I wanted to get done with it and get to grade spool it and gear up for 5 days fishing trip to big bear lake for trout/crappie and bass fishing.

Neds just weren't finessy enough, so I had to go smaller with the next order. 😆

I was shown the damage these can do or stocked trout.  Almost banjo minnow infomercial level of out fishing live bait.

These two BGC gliders were painted by a local guy in our club. I can't say enough, how amazing these are

More stuff my "financial advisor" said I needed. Those Keitech Clear Lake Hitch colors look good.

Late delivery. Sweet Fish on left & Silver Powdered Shad/Baitfish on right. Last photo above, Flashing Wagasaki on top, Dark Thunder Clear Bait on bottom. Flashing Wagasaki has a stronger pink to it than closeup shows.

 

Sweet Fish on top, Powdered Shad/Baitfish on bottom. Sweet Fish looks more natural & closer to what I’d expect locally. The Powdered Baitfish is flashier. Powdered Ayu looked to be a good one as well but unavailable at the moment. The Ayu was similar to Powdered Baitfish but a bit darker with greens (to me) & a visible yellow dot just behind gill plate area.

Got my copperstate order today. Really looking forward to trying the smaller provokes. I have been hoping they would come out with these for a while now. The treble heads hopefully will keep me from needing to make my own line through baits with stir straws and weights.

Mine came yesterday and I also got a few of the Provoke 77's. I think these are gonna be killer.

Couldn't pass up the exchange rate for a 24 Certate. Probably 90% of my setups are Shimano, but I've really enjoyed the Ballistic MQ and figured I had to give the Certate a shot after reading so many great reviews. I'll be putting it on a legend elite 76MF for tubes and all around finesse.

So this morning I needed to pick up some stuff and I wandered over to the fishing aisle and picked up some swimbait hooks for 1$ a pack, the Pop-R for 2$, the trap for 2$, and the Jerks for 2.50$. Kind of funny the Ozark trail was the most expensive, but I really hope they don't discontinue it, because it has a really nice slow rise and the stock hooks were sticky enough for my fishing needs.

 

I also left a lot of stuff there. Googan bandito bugs were 1.50$, shad raps were 2$, Rap minnows were 2$-3.50$, etc. Lots of great deals, but I bought what I needed and left a bunch for others to take advantage of.

I had just talked myself out of going by walmart today to check the inventory, and then I see your post. The bait monkey thanks you for your contributions.

Added another full tray of Oneten's, Jr.'s, and X-80's.

I think an intervention is in order.

Picked up my new reel the other day from Japan.

 

 

[FishTax]

My 3 orders thus far this week. All essential... 

Stocking up for me and my kid. Throwing beetle spins on UL should be fun if we can get some bites. And a new rod and reel for me from the clearance department. I'm going back to Academy soon as they have an extra 50% off marked clearance prices going right now, too good to be true

Lol...this was me 10 years ago.  I used the 'grab and shake' method of freeing baits.  I've gone to thin 3700's now, and like them.  Plano was happy....I bet I've spent $500 on 3701's.
