  2. Can't wait to put that 7.8 on the new Owner Beast 10/0 Flashy Swimmer.
  3. Red tungsten bead for me.
  4. Tatsu - and now with their buy 2, get 2 free deal it's actually a pretty good buy.
  5. Is this your 1st Kastking reel?
  6. Terrific buy. That rod out performs it's regular cost.
  7. I've said this before. The A-rig was banned in many tournaments for being too effective, & it looks like a wad of coat hangers coming through the water. I believe lure color & presentation matter much more. If I'm fishing a moving bait with braid, I just wait until the rod loads up & do a reel set.
  8. Have Ken at KC Injection Baits make you some. Usually get my custom order in a week or less. https://kcinjectionbaits.com/store/page5.html Love this guy. You pick color, glitter, scent or no scent, salt or no salt. And whatever you do, do not order his "Willow Leaf Tail" Ringworms.
  9. In recognition of Mark Rose's 2 straight wins, they are offering a Tatsu buy 2 - get 2 free of same or lesser # test purchased. Got the form from their FB page.
  10. I really like this one in the shape of a craw tail: https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/search-tackle.html?from=basres&start=0&count=20&prevsearch=wobblehead&searchtext=wobble+head
  11. I like the EWG.
  12. Another vote for the Air Tail Wiggler. You can also put a rattle in the tail. The MegaStrike head is my go to in 3/8 oz.
  13. A play on the A-rig?
  14. Sometimes they do make a difference. I use JJ's Magic in Chartreuse & Clear. I've been spanked too many times to not at least keep it in the box just in case.
  15. You will really appreciate it if you have to set the hook with the bait way out there.
  16. The Daiwa DX if full cork, but an 8 footer. Fantastic rod for the $ at $109.00.
  17. My new fav is the Finch Nasty Thumper. He designed his skirts to match the Lake Fork Tackle Magic Shads for trailers.
  18. I've bought 4 pairs over the years without issue. They are a major discounter of many brands of high end outdoor gear. I went to the Classic shortly after I bought my first pair & took them to the Costa booth. They verified them. I have bought boots & camping gear from them also at great savings. They also discount fishing gear, but unfortunately it's only high end fly fishing. Not saying others have not had issues. Heck, I've had issues with BPS & Cabelas. But I have never received knock-offs. They also sell many different lines of sunglasses - Oakley, Smith, Native Eyewear & others. As big and as long as their presence has been on the web, I am sure the Feds or the manufacturers would have shut them down by now if they were not legit.
  19. If for just a trailer or bottom hopping, the Zoom & Kalin's are perfect. But if I'm swimming it or slow rolling on the bottom, it has to be the Rage Tail.
  20. They are at it again! http://www.steepandcheap.com/costa-cat-cay-polarized-sunglasses-costa-580-glass-lens?skid=CDM3144-MATCRYMIRB-ONESIZ&ti=UExQIFJ1bGUgQmFzZWQ6Q29zdGEgT24gU2FsZToxOjExOg== http://www.steepandcheap.com/costa-fisch-polarized-sunglasses-580-glass-lens?skid=CDM3096-CRYBRO-ONESIZ&ti=UExQIFJ1bGUgQmFzZWQ6Q29zdGEgT24gU2FsZToxOjQ6 http://www.steepandcheap.com/costa-brine-580p-mirrored-sunglasses-polarized?skid=CDM005M-CRBRMIS580PA-ONESIZ&ti=UExQIFJ1bGUgQmFzZWQ6Q29zdGEgT24gU2FsZToyOjIxOg== plus a lot of other poly & 400G. They will go fast!
  21. Plus 3 on the Berkley. I've had one so long I had to epoxy the spool arm to the base it was so worn out.
  22. Good bait for the $. The VMC hooks were sharp out of the box, but didn't stay that way long. Switched them out to Owners.
