Super User FishTank Posted October 5, 2020 Super User Posted October 5, 2020 Needed to restock on some jigs and stuff. But the real reason for the post, I found some original Flappin Hogs. I found them in a clearance bin at a local shop. They had a few more bags but I don't use these very often. Notice there is no tag in lower corner of the bag. I thought it was strange but I think these maybe prototypes or something. The tails are just slightly different from the new version and the original. 3 Quote

I actually decided to downgrade and I think I’ll be okay with that decision! My President XT came in today and I got to say I’m impressed. 80$ less than my supreme xt and it feels just as great out of the box. Sure the drag isn’t as smooth but for the price I paid I’m very happy. I especially like how light the reel is and it’s what drove me to choose it over other similar reels like a Sedona or the regular President. Gonna test it out tomorrow morning on some shallow water largies. Anyone have any experience with this reel? I’ve heard that the knob on the handle is prone to falling off. Any truth? I have a size 25 XT I use for river walleye and smallmouth. No complaints here, I haven't had any handle issues with mine. Quote
Super User BrianMDTX Posted October 12, 2020 Super User Posted October 12, 2020 I have not fed the monkey (should that be capitalized?) in some time. I hope this was a worthy sacrifice for fall bass. 1 Quote

galyonj Posted October 14, 2020 Posted October 14, 2020 Care package from Lew's came in yesterday. I warrantied a TP1 Black and one of their little panfish rods. It took forever to get in touch with them on account of COVID, and their warehouse was pretty much bare even so. That said, once we got the conversation started, they were incredibly good. Didn't have direct replacements in stock for either, so I got a comparable Mr Trout model for the little rod, and a free upgrade to a Custom for my TP1. I gotta say I like the g-clutch handle. 5 Quote

I only had to deal with lews one time over a reel that was just a lemon and they were super easy to deal with. The even sent me some cool decals. Looks like you dog is trying to get some camera time Quote

Super pleased with the process and communication once we finally got started – not to mention the free upgrade. I didn't get anything but the rods, and I'm fine with that. They were probably out of them, too. Apparently their warehouse is just about sitting empty because of supply problems. Roger's a mess. I need to look into finding him a 12 step program or something for his crippling cheez-it addiction. Still, he's a good boy. I'm rooting for him to finally catch a squirrel. Quote

Super User MN Fisher Posted October 16, 2020 Super User Posted October 16, 2020 Had to get this - the price was right. Used from AL and it appears almost pristine. Got it for $70 including tax and shipping. 5 Quote

Super User NorcalBassin Posted October 17, 2020 Super User Posted October 17, 2020 Been casually looking for one of these for at least a couple years but wasn't willing to pay the huge markups on ebay. Happened to randomly check out their site last weekend right as a drop happened and grabbed these three... pretty excited to spend some time throwing them. 3 Quote
DSTN Posted October 17, 2020 Posted October 17, 2020 @NorcalBassin I don't know if I want to know what those cost but that wake bat looks awesome! Quote
