EWREX

i don’t believe he’s announced his rod sponsor yet

i blame chris zaldain leaving ??

According to the diagrams, the Sniper looks to be the better overall option here. Both are pretty much at the same price point. For those who have used either, what are your experiences? edit: will be used mainly for flipping/pitching soft plastic texas rigs, jigs, etc

welcome! don’t be afraid to ask the basic questions. there is a ton of information available!

quite an impressive lineup you've got there. do you tournament fish or are you just a gear junkie?

reaction innovations sweet beaver in magic craw swirl texas rigged with a pegged tungsten flipping weight. weight of tungsten depending on cover or scenario i'm fishing

berkley flat worm yamamoto senko zoom trick and finesse worms reaction innovations pocket rocket zman big trd

wacky/neko rigs, jigs, texas rigs

specifics come down to weather conditions and time of year BUT i'll always have these tied on from spring to late fall: 2.8"-4.3" keitech drop shot senko (weightless, neko, or wacky) ned rig or tube jerkbait bladed jig jig texas rig

if there is an industry wide increase, that is for certain. MB is towards the 'higher end' on the gear spectrum and people will pay for the premium product.

at my job we've had some substrate go up 80% in the last couple months. i'm not justifying their increases, but you never know

you've got some real nice gear, i hope your interest is high enough to get out there a few times to put that stuff to work!

i can attest to getting bit on maxscent flat worms over other dropshot baits in certain situations. can i confirm that maxscent is the reason for that? defintely not, but it sure made me more confident in what i was using which is good enough for me. confidence is king!

i’ll buy a few bags of flat nose minnows if you’re looking to offload some ?

crankbaits are up there for me. a lot of the lakes i fish are “grass” lakes so crankin usually isn’t the hot ticket. i own a ton of them for some reason though. maybe because they look pretty

awesome breakdown i appreciate the insight. i’ll take a look at the jackhammer special and see if i can get my hands in one somewhere to feel out.

i’m loving the excel spreadsheets ? how do you like the combat sticks? i’d love to get one that i really don’t need for chatterbaits

i’ll be out in the hard water next weekend. drinking beer will be my main priority nice arsenal you’ve got there

solid lineup!

i'll send you a PM

fuego LT is a fantastic reel at the $100 price point

i've got a couple used pflueger supreme spinning reels if you are interested.
