Best Pop-R type lure ?
The pop max/pop x are tops for me. The evergreen OB popper is also worthy of consideration. If you are more budget minded, the basic rebel pop-r is the way to go

I'm wondering if TW will still have a Tax Stimulus Sale with tax day being pushed back? As if I really "need" to place an order anyway haha

The Best $100 Rod
I'd consider looking at the Major Craft Nanoace rods, they run $99.99-$129.99 but I feel they fish well above their price point. As mentioned above, the Dobyns Fury, Tatula XT and St Croix Mojo rods are also good options. Tackle Warehouse usually has a tax stimulus sale but I'm not sure if its happening this year with actually tax day being pushed back

The latest sale thread
This is typical for the classic sale, just wait a few weeks for the tax stimulus sale and get 10% off. I feel like Tackle Warehouse could have a 99% off sale every Tuesday and people would find something to complain about.

Evergreen Combat Stick
They are well constructed and aesthetically pleasing if you are ok with the camo grips. I had the chatterbait rod and it was near perfect for the application and did fine for other moving baits as well. Unfortunately, I just couldn’t adjust to the reel seat, the acs is somewhat polarizing and definitely not for me. If it wasn’t for the reel seat I’d probably have a few of these rods

Any suggestions for small football/tube heads?
Hey all, I'm wondering if anyone can point me towards some smaller size football and tube heads I can buy in bulk, specifically looking for 1/8oz with 1/0-2/0 hooks. I've tried some different options, but would prefer something with a slightly nicer hook than the generic bronze type. If you know of a good source please post or shoot me a PM, thanks.

Daiwa regal LT
I’ve had the 3000 size since late spring, been very impressed so far, especially at the price point

Anyone have a good recommendation for a bait caster reel for a lightweight set up?
What’s your budget?

Sunline SX1 braid diameter
I’ve always just used the original power pro spectra https://www.tacklewarehouse.com/Power_Pro_Spectra_Braided_Line_Moss_Green/descpage-PPSL.html

Sunline SX1 braid diameter
I've always been a Power Pro guy but have been considering putting SX1 on a new multi-use spinning combo I'm putting together. I'm big on looking at line diameter and not just strength rating, but unfortunately I can't find any manufacturer supplied diameters on this line. I reached out to Sunline but have not heard back yet. For guys that have used both, how do you feel the diameter of SX1 compares to Power Pro? More specifically, I'm looking at 12# SX1 and have traditionally used 10/15# Power Pro on spinning setups. I'd appreciate any help/feedback

Major Craft Don Iovino 6'9'' Finesse vs 6'5'' Corrza CZS-65ML
I have the non Iovino version of this rod (same rod really) and have used it for light texas, small jigs, 1/4oz poppers/jerkbaits, and neko rigs. My primary uses have been drop shot, ned rig, and grubs/paddletails.

What are some good low profile reels under $140 for swimbaits
There are some deals out there on Tatula HD/150/200 reels. I've been nothing but impressed with the entire Tatula series

Awesome, I think you’ll really like it

Major Craft Don Iovino 6'9'' Finesse vs 6'5'' Corrza CZS-65ML
Little late to the game here, but my vote goes Nanoace. I feel this series performs well beyond its price point, I have 3 and am quite happy with them. That said, the Corzza rods are prettier, but don’t seem to be any more sensitive and have more moderate actions. Also, I really don’t like the reel seat on the casting Corzza rods

The latest sale thread
Now I just have to decide on a reel to pair it with, thinking a JDM Ballistic

The latest sale thread
It worked! Pumped to have an Addermine on the way. Figured I would end up buying the rod at some point anyway and it was worth a shot. Plus having a few adult beverages with my cousins last night influenced things lol

I called and they told me the rods weren't included, tempted to try anyway

The latest sale thread
In my experience the only brand truly "excluded" is Megabass and the discount is reflected on the final invoice for everything else.
-
The latest sale thread
I’ve never ordered during one of their sales, is the discount still applicable to excluded items like TW does? Not expecting megabass of course

Your Favorite Megabass Lure Besides.......
