Tying Vice Advice
I use a dynaking for most of my tying and it's great but not cheap. That being said if you buy quality up front you will save money in the long run and if you decide it's not for you then it's easier to sell and recoupe some of your money

Lure Retriever worth it or not
I'm not a big fan of the chain/ weighted lure retrievers. I always seem to spend a lot of time fighting them but I bought an extendable pole retriever abt 2 yrs ago and it paid for itself in 2 trips easy. I highly recommend them especially for crankbait fishermen. I fish alot of relatively shallow wood

Spike It vs. JJ's Magic
I had a bottle of JJs break in my boats tackle storage 2 yrs ago and I can still smell it from time to time not to mention the mess I had to clean up. I had it in a zip lock but didn't notice the hole in the bag. Chartruce everywhere. That being said I'm a JJs fan in my boat , spike it in my friends boat. JJs needs a plastic bottle.
