I bought a new to me G Loomis IMX MBR 843C and an E6X MBR 843C.  These are going to be staples in my coangler tournament arsenal.  I have them paired up with Chronarch 50MGs.  Although they balance well, I haven't decided yet if that is the way I'm going.

Megabass I-Slide 185 (oikawa)

Megabass I-Slide 135 (gg smlmth)

Megabass Vatalion (Ito Cichlid, GG Wild Gill)

Larew Biffle Bug (MN Flash)

Larew Bass Shooter (MN Flash)

Bucca Bull Gill (Bluegill)

Clearly I got hit hard...

Haven't really ventured into glide baits, so curious to experiment with some small to medium sized ones this year. That custom bull gill in crappie above is soooo sweet.

My new spinning rod from sportsmans outfitters. Got it for $104.99 shipped. Next up is a new reel for it, and maybe a casting rod at that price!

I took it out for a spin yesterday. Casts like a dream.I haven't bought the reel for it yet,so I had the PQ on it.It was a little heavy.Im either getting the Tatula SV or another CT to throw on it next week.Going to be a blast to throw when I pair it up right.That rod is so light for a heavy,and feels great in the hands.Glad I bought it.

stop guys. please. It matches my KK Stealth to the point that I sent my gf the link on sportsmans outfitters (she asked what I wanted for fathers day). I can't take it any more. I ordered a KK assassin Wednesday to replace my black max that's acting up, so my fishing budget can't take any more (this week).

I put a Conc. A on mine and it is awesome! Still my favorite setup. And yea for a heavy it is a very light rod. I fish T-rigs, jigs, C-rigs, etc on it and I love the sensitivity and how much backbone it gives you. Plus it just looks sexy.

Picked up a bunch of TrokarBig Nasty Octopus hooks in both 2/0 & 5/0 for some ocean fishing I've got coming up.  

 

I love these hooks, and besides they just look incredibly badass.  For heavy gauge wire they give phonomenal hook penetration.  

 

 

 

Also picked up a 2oz Lucanus jig,

 

 

a SW 110 +1,

 

 

a couple ronz 8"/1.5oz worm jig sets and a couple different size weights for ubersized saltwater drop shotting as well as a spool of 17# CXX and a sabiki rig for my spinner to keep the bait bucket full.  Those pieces should round out what I've already got pretty well.  Kind of worries to throw a 110 into salt but whaaaaaatever haha

 

Saltwater is fun- moreso when it's someone else's super expensive boat and gas too!  Makes possibly losing a 110 seem like an afterthought ????

 

 

 

 

 

[Master Bait'r]

Oh, and one of these things too.  Hoping it doesn't explode when a fish hits it considering what it cost.

Took advantage of the sale at DSG today. Heading out to try these out soon!

 

 

Update. The 3D bluegill works great. Caught 7 or 8 on it! The frogs don't walk very well, but I didn't trim the legs yet. They didn't take on water so I'm happy about that.

Rough week. My Imakatsu Gillpop was here Friday from Japan, but I wasn't home to sign for it so I just got a note to pick it up at the PO. Very small town that I live by, PO only open 9-11 on Saturday so I went there right at 9 before my sons soccer practice. The lady informs me it won't be back there until after 10am? I guess they don't unload the trucks each night?

 

Whopper Plopper 110s were supposed to be here today, USPS acting like this guy,

 

My 110's trail so far,

Officially landed in Oklahoma City on May 23rd and this Canadian boy has been going crazy. Trips to Academy, Dick's, Walmart and Cabela's so far and it has been incredible!! Just wish someone would have warned me that the monkey turns into a gorilla quick. 

 

Yield so far has been 2 whopper plopper 90's, 15 bags of zoom flukes (academy 25% off is killer), falcon bucoo rod, one knocker spooks, xcalibur squarebills, yum dinger's and rogue's at dick's....buy 5, get 5 free.

 

I am now scared that the US funds I brought will run out within the first 2 weeks of my trip. Lol. Might have to send out an SOS.

Sounds like you're having a good time. Now just drive north a few hours and we'll put those 90's to use on a bunch of smallies
