How often do you change lures?
Depends on what i'm fishing. With topwater i always have a followup ready to pitch if they miss it, When i'm flipping and pitching i only change after 30-40 min if i don't get hit and normally it would be a weight or colour change. with big baits i know it's a time thing so i'm a little less focused on changing colour i would pick it based on the conditions and what i am fishing.

good crankbait rod verses a great one
i find it difficult to fish deep divers on a rod that is anything less than medium heavy moderate fast action. i think it is better to have a bit of a faster action in this situation because of the resistance the crank gives. i find it helps with feeling the vibration the deep divers and what's on the bottom. where as if i was using a moderate rod i think i would find it hard to tell the difference between the bottom composure and the regular vibration

Do You Support Your Local Bait and Tackle Shop?
I'm not always concerned with price I think customer service is worth a lot more than the dollar I will save getting it somewhere else. obviously there is a line that has to be drawn but I think we all have our own idea of where that line is. a larger store that is somewhat close has abraz-x for $17, bps has it for $30 and the local shop has it for $18.50 obviously I'm going to support the shop that is local to where I fish. there are certain things that i cannot find locally that i unfortunately have to pay a little more for but for any of my usual stuff i always stop in at my local shop on the way up to the lake. there is also another local shop that carries a few more things that are difficult to acquire in Canada such as bull shads, jackall gantarel, lucky craft real gill. even though the prices are a little higher it is better than importing from the US and paying the exchange rate
