I went with an MGXtreme to go light, instead of the Scorpion recently. But I have a heavier rod that it would still pair nicely with. I took it out yesterday and fished for about 5 hours. I used it the majority of the time. Mostly throwing a texas rigged soft plastic with a 3/16 oz weight. I love it, but I wasn't surprised. It's very smooth and pals incredibly well. 1 Quote

I expect to get one sometime down the road. That’ll be for heavier applications for me. When I have the time to get out more, that’s on my list. Been updating things around the house this fall, since I haven’t had the time to put into fishing recently and some of the things around here (not just me) are starting to get old. Quote
VPI Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 Got my first 6th Sense box. Really happy with the selection.   6 Quote

Super User MN Fisher Posted October 29, 2019 Super User Posted October 29, 2019 Birthday money! The actual date isn't until next month, but the parents gave me some cash early. So since my old 3600-size Advanced Angler bag was getting a little tight, and I have a wishlist on TW a mile long...got a BPS Extreme Qualifier 3700-size in Camo with 4-3700 and 1-3750 boxes. Now I got room to for what I've wish-listed and a bit more to expand. Â The Advanced Angler bag is going to be my new Plastics bag - 6-3600 size boxes in the main compartment, 1-3600 size in the front pocket plus the room in the side pockets. More storage than the Plano Weekender that WAS my plastics bag...it only held 4-3600 boxes then loose stuff in the pockets. Â Yes, I've already done the sorting - the AA bag will fill when I do my TW and FishUSA orders after I get my Yule present (usually a grand in a check). Â 7 Quote
hoosiergramps Posted October 29, 2019 Posted October 29, 2019 got a rod locker packed full and found myself buying 3 more from Witch Doctor Tackle and love them so far. Of course needed a new spinning reel too. better start making room. Â Quote

They go great with my 2 BB1s, 1 LFS, 1 Heavy Duty, and 2 Mach II Spinners. Yeah, I'm a Lew's reel Fan Boi! 2 Quote

If you zoom in a little you can read the labels. I don’t know much about all the different ones. Mike was nice enough to throw together a nice sample pack for me to try out. 4 Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted November 2, 2019 Global Moderator Posted November 2, 2019 My tiny little pea brain cannot for the life of me, figure out how to whip finish. I have one, but it sits largely unused in a box in my garage.  A couple baits I'm excited about from my TW order this week. Left out my new Duo jerkbait, maybe on purpose ?  And a few baits 6 Quote

Well, I'm going to set my vise up in front of the lap top and follow along with @smalljaw67Â on YT and learn how to do it. I've always wanted to use thread instead of wire on my jigs and also I want to dress my own trebles. I'm going to master the whip finish come hell or high water. I've also watched this video a few times. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8PwX71zzkM 1 Quote
Harold Scoggins Posted November 2, 2019 Posted November 2, 2019 40 unpainted Dredge (20 Brush, 20 G2 Football) jigs came today. Bring on the powder paint! (Thanks for the extra weed guards, Mike! @Siebert Outdoors) 4 Quote
FishinBuck07 Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 Went to the local tackle shop today, stocked up on some stuff that I have been wanting. Got a variety of Berkley crankbaits to try out next spring, stocked up on Molix flipping jigs, and some chatterbaits.  1 Quote
Vilas15 Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 Some bass baits for next spring on the left, and some other goodies for walleye on the right. Â 4 Quote
Derek1 Posted November 3, 2019 Posted November 3, 2019 Got to try it out for a hour or so. I like it already. 6 Quote
Super User Cgolf Posted November 3, 2019 Super User Posted November 3, 2019 Not exactly Wal mart sale prices but stopped at a Gander Outdoors that was closing. 50 percent off lowest tag fishing and 70 precent off lowest tag marine.  Got a backup Yak life vest for 21. All the BioSpawn baits and lure dye were 3 a piece. Suffix 832 was 5.40 a spool. Cordell baits were 2.40 for and 3.25 for 2. Structure bugs were 2.75. Could have gone really crazy but budget and all that lol. Bummed they didn’t have any Menace grubs, but more than happy with what we found. The D bombs were under 2 for the bag. 7 Quote
