Super User Teal Posted April 27, 2020 Super User Posted April 27, 2020 Mail call! Tatula 7'1 heavy came in today. Now to slide some 50 lb braid on this new Origin C. Its feels really good on the rod... it's looks sweet too! Now just 2 more rods to buy.... be a shame to leave these reels without rods. Pardon my camera guys, got a shattered lens on a 4 year old phone. Too busy buying gear to worry about a phone. 8 Quote
Smells like fish Posted April 27, 2020 Posted April 27, 2020 An unexpected tackle store stop resulted in an Evergreen ShowerBlow 125 in American Shad and a pack of Zoom Centipedes. Bait monkey nodded in approval at checkout 4 Quote
Dangerfield Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 I started exploring some local shops online cause most shops are locked up due to you know who. I feel a lot more confident using black/blue after last season, and the monkey told me to treat myself. I like dirty jigs, they have an amazing colour selection, beautiful paint jobs, and many jighead options to fit your desire. I like the touch of gr. pumpkin added to the skirt, but I gotta say after getting a 3-pack of Dobyns fb jigs with a mix of live rubber, the most insane keeper AND wire tied, I don't know if I can go back to Dirty Jigs. 3/8oz Dirty Jigs TL Pitchin' Jig in Blackend Blue (x2) 1/2oz Dirty Jigs TL Pitchin' Jig in Blackend Blue Baby D Bombs - Sprayed Grass for my finesse casting jigs 4/0 River2Sea New Jack Flippin' Hook for Freedom Chatterbaits 1 Quote
walleyecrazy Posted April 28, 2020 Posted April 28, 2020 I recently decided that I “needed” a dedicated setup for throwing bigger swimbaits. I picked up a Leviathan 8’ heavy Omega swimbait rod paired with a Daiwa Coastal TWS. I got out to use it for the first time today, and I think I may be in love ? This rod is incredibly light and balanced for its size and power. 11 Quote

Mbirdsley Posted May 1, 2020 Posted May 1, 2020 Have not really bought anything tackle related lately. Today at the surplus store picked up a blue gill berkly cutter 110. 2 packs of kalins size mic shad That I’ll use for spinner baits I think. Since it will be to windy to launch the boat tommrow. I think I’m heading trout fishing so I picked up a golden f-7 rapala ( I can use it for smallies in smaller river also. oh I also bought a lot of 6 war eagle spinner baits in various sizes from eBay. Those hsvnt come in the mail yet 4 Quote

I've been keeping my eyes open this past year on three sites that carry their baits from time to time and I just barely missed it when one of them got a small shipment. I'm looking forward to hearing how you like it. Quote
Super User NorcalBassin Posted May 3, 2020 Super User Posted May 3, 2020 Needed to get geared up for small swimbaits and also needed to replace a spinning reel. I took the "logical" route and decided to buy a reel to put at the top of my lineup and cull others down. Felt a little uneasy shelling that out for a reel, but at 25% off for a reel I'll have the rest of my life the bait monkey told me it was definitely worth it... That 1000 size seems like it's going to be perfect on the 822. 12 Quote
