Best Fishing Store You’ve been in
I can say the 17 weeks I spent at Ft Leonard Wood in MO was the best for tackle shops. Besides BPS there were like 4 small shops within 45 minutes. Around here Jakes bait and tackle is the best. About 2 hours north is SFT which has everything. Allen

Fish Attractants
I can tell you that if you chew Redman when fishing put the tobacco in your mouth BEFORE adding a bunch of Kick-N-Bass on a jig. Not sure what the bass think it tastes like but it doesn't taste very good IMO. Allen

Teckel Kicknocker vs. Reaction Innovations Vixen
I sold most of my Vixens because I never caught anything on them and I tried. Now I saved 2 BLV just in case but they get one more chance then they are being sold if they don't produce. Allen

Swim jig trailer keeper?
I just bought one of these to see what colors were in the Hites delight skirt. It is nice but $8 a jig nice IMO. Allen

Fish Attractants
I don't think it attracts bass from my experience? What it does do is make the fish hold onto a bait for another second or two witch makes a difference. Allen

Swim jig trailer keeper?
Waiting on O'Hare spring to get back with me about making a double barb. Both barbs would be on top but would have the same effect. Allen

Jackal Rearrange
So, I picked up some Jakal rearrange jerkbaits to try out. Generally I have stopped just buying new baits to try but jerkbaits have always been my weakness. First cast of one I thought either I broke my rod or the line snapped? The weight transfer system in these makes a loud crack when casting that sounds like a rod breaking. I have never heard a bait so loud on a cast and it really messed me up for awhile thinking something is wrong. Anyone else tried these yet and have an opinion of them? Allen

Waiting for a storm to pass…. Spinnerbait heads?
Hopefully I can spend some time with smalljaw67 this year and make some videos on the subject. There are so many variables involved its crazy and since we are both spinnerbait fanatics we could share our knowledge. In the meantime I will say that War Eagle and Booyah make good baits. Otherwise I suggest contacting Seibert and explaining your fishing conditions and he can recommend something. Allen
