  1. Gotcha... May not get a discount at Academy, but their squarebills start at $3.99. Totally worth that price in my opinion. I was skeptical of them due to the off brand stigma, but they are fish catchers.
  2. They make a rattling KVD 1.5... The bass pro near me has them. Have you tried Academy's H20 Xpress CRS?? Legit squarebill for the price. Give it a look, you might be pleasantly surprised.
  3. I use a 7'2" MH-regular Daiwa Tatula for swim jigs... Absolutely love it. Feels like it was designed for swim jigs. Is currently my favorite rod.
  4. I love power pro!! only braid I use!
  5. I just recently bought some BOSS heads and skirts from Dirty Jigs and BOSS and making my own color combos. Ends up being cheaper per jig that way.
  6. I T-rig rage bugs all the time. Probably my favorite soft plastic to T-rig. I fish it in cover as well as just cast and hop it back. I get bit doing both. I also fish it on a c-rig and swinging football head as others have mentioned. Awesome soft plastic.
  7. I have a couple of the big ones (60 model), but I haven't used them a whole lot. Kind of afraid to use them like a squarebill should be used (throwing them in lots cover and brush) because they cost so much. The finish on them is just like all spro hardbaits, excellent. And the action is excellent as well. Wonderful squarebill. If money was no issue, I'd fill my tacklebox with them and they'd be my go to squarebill.
  8. Yep... I found me a junk microwave to use just for melting soft plastics. And I plan to do it outside. I have a beard so probably gonna have to shave it. Wife will be happy.
  9. Awesome. Thanks guys!
  10. I have a senko mold I'd like to use and plan to melt plastic using a pyrex in a microwave. I plan on buying a respirator, but I'm clueless about them. Will the below two items work for filtering out harmful fumes from melted plastic? Thanks for any input!! https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00IF7RBS4/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=2W51HFIBEXIPN&coliid=I34CY4YIFDKATN&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AEFCKKY/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=2W51HFIBEXIPN&coliid=I18MQWAV1A9DZO&psc=1
  11. They are getting popular fast. And just about every color of the eco toad is on back order until June on tacklewarehouse. Only honey locust is available.
  12. Yep... The Cabela's near me had them for $2.49 a pack. I loaded up. Eco pro has put out some good stuff recently. I just received their new hollow body frog from TW earlier this week... has trokar hooks so I'm pumped to see what the hook up ratio will be like. Plus they are 3/4 oz, so should be able to sling em!
  13. I like the eco pro swing shad... Half the price of swing impact fats and more durable. Great action.
  14. I use VMC sinker stops in medium most often, but sometimes small. The size of sinker stop has to do with the diameter of the line your using.
  15. I use 12 lb sunline sniper FC for cranking.
  16. All the wal marts around me stopped carrying the square As much to my disappointment. Square As are hard to find locally around here. Have to order online.
  17. Can't recommend the eco pro swing shads enough... Much cheaper and more durable with great action... I no longer buy keitechs anymore.
  18. This squarebill def gets deeper, but is a larger 2.5 profile. If you're looking for a 1.5 profile, Academy has a small profile CRM that dives deeper. http://www.academy.com/shop/pdp/h2o-xpress-spcrm-crankbait#repChildCatid=3486540
  19. I like several. Spro Fat Johns KVD 1.5 H20 Xpress CRS Bomber square A LC 1.5
  20. Heddon Super Spook Jr. Rapala DT6 Rapala DT Thug Lucky Craft 1.5 squarebill Strike King 3XD
  21. SK Rage Bug Eco Pro Swing Shad Z-man Finesse wormz Senkos Zoom z-craw Jr.
  22. I like Z-man finesse worms, but they are tough to get screwed down on a shaky head. A trick I learned from another poster on this site is to heat the coil up with a lighter. The worm screws on easy after that! They normally last until I lose the jighead to a snag.
  23. I like using half a z-man zinkerz to add some weight to my 1/4 oz cavitrons.
  24. Yep. Have always used a backpack and 3700 boxes.
