Branuss04 Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 Well I just got back from the International Sportsmens Expo here in Sacramento. I went both saturday and sunday with just one goal... to spend my paycheck. So here is what I got.

And also got to talk to some killer bass guys from left to right Bub Tosh, Dee Thomas, Gary Dobyns, Skeet Reese, Greg Guiterrez, Dave Rush. That was awesome Quote
Super User Tin Posted January 21, 2008 Super User Posted January 21, 2008 Hope that is 20 pounds or really good jerky ;D You could have bought 3 more Mattlures. Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted January 21, 2008 Super User Posted January 21, 2008 thats a boat load of jerky!!! it'd have to be dinosaur jerky or something for me to pay that much lol!!!!! you made out well my friend. do you have a grand total on that stuff? i was thinkin of getting some r2s jigs, i wanted the junk grenades, but i decided not to go with them.

Cajun1977 Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 nice purchases, if anyones ever been to an expo you know theres around 10 booths of just jerky....i always stock up ;D Quote
ejtaylor822 Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 Very nice "shopping list". Those Matt Lures are soooo nice. Quote
Branuss04 Posted January 21, 2008 Author Posted January 21, 2008 Lowrance X96 - $200 Crucial Dropshot 7'2" M EF - $130 Hudd ROF 5 - $35.00 2 7" Mission Fish Shad/Trout - $28 3 R2S Jigs - $9 2 1-1/4oz Spoons - $11 2 Ultimate Matt Lures Bluegills Male and Female - $44 10" power worms - $4 Rapala X-rap - $6 Pro's Soft Bait Glue - $10 Mend-It - $12 Eye Surrender Swimbait Wrap - $9 Seagur 6# flouro - $17 $60 worth of Jerky - $60 Oh yea, and $50 for a license +2nd rod stamp =$625 and I still had $25 for gas. Pretty sweet weekend all and all. I've been going to this show since I was little with my dad and every year I look forward to the jerky ALMOST as much as I look forward to the booths. So I always get enough to last a few days ;D I think I got around 5#'s or so. It's well worth it though. I was sure to put everything away and throw away any evidence away before my girlfriend, because there would be no round of applause for this one. The R2S jigs are alright, I only got them because I had a coupon for a tackle shop after I bought my rod from them, so i bought some random stuff that I normally wouldn't buy. Quote
Jeff C. Posted January 21, 2008 Posted January 21, 2008 good jerkey can cost more than $ 20.00 pound in smaller pkgs.. 5# for $ 60.00 is a good buy !! oh yah.. nice fish-in stuff too. 8-) Quote
Super User burleytog Posted January 21, 2008 Super User Posted January 21, 2008 What size of hook does one use to rig a 10' worm? :-? Quote
crazy4bass1 Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 what's a 2nd rod stamp? in some states, they make you pay extra if you want to wet two lines at a time Quote
Jeff C. Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 Burley,, for me it depends on how big around it is,, but usually 4/0 is pretty good,... Quote
Dean Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 Very nice, that really does deserve a round of a plause Quote
garry77 Posted January 22, 2008 Posted January 22, 2008 maybe one of those they hang beef with. Quote
Branuss04 Posted January 22, 2008 Author Posted January 22, 2008 " ' Thank you Mr. Burley. I've actually been using the hooks from those giant Rapala Wall hangers. I use 5 of them, one every 2 feet tied together with 100# braid. Quote
Super User fishfordollars Posted January 22, 2008 Super User Posted January 22, 2008 what's a 2nd rod stamp? in some states, they make you pay extra if you want to wet two lines at a time Do you mean that if I am fishing more than one rod at a time I must pay extra? Please explain... Quote

Please explain... check your local states DFG rules in california yes, you must pay an extra 12 bucks to have a second rod in the water. Quote
dumb_dog11 Posted January 23, 2008 Posted January 23, 2008 to clarify further you can carry 130 rods but only fish one at a time unless you have that stamp Quote
Branuss04 Posted January 24, 2008 Author Posted January 24, 2008 to clarify furtheryou can carry 130 rods but only fish one at a time unless you have that stamp Or.... Get your girlfriend (who doesn't fish) a license and 2nd rod stamp and bring her out with you so you can throw 4 rods out Quote
Mattlures Posted January 24, 2008 Posted January 24, 2008 The law only apllies to fresh water. You can use as many as you want in the salt. It is mainly geared towards the guys who fish for trout and catfish. Those fish are stocked for the purpose of taking home and eating. Branuss04 Thank you for getting some of my gills. Also You will love the Mend-it! Quote

I'd hate to be a crappie angler there. LOL. Quote
Super User David P Posted January 24, 2008 Super User Posted January 24, 2008 I got my 2nd rod stamp for the first time this year. $12 for it, which sucks! Mend-It is awesome, you'll love it. Quote
