A "hold on to bait"?
I know all the baits we use are just tools for the game. Do you have a plastic or hard bait that isnt made anymore that throw but afraid to loose or the last few plastics of that kind in that bag?

Looking for this shakey head/swing head
I fish ponds with a muck bottoms. I want to try to fish larger profile worms like bull worm, mag trick, yum mighty, and such on a shakey head/ swing head. Its hard to find a 5/0,4/0 with a lighter weight. I'm looking for 1/8 or 3/16 in that size. Does anyone know where I can find one? Maybe I just overlooked it.

Zoom sapphire for the most part.

Sapphire blue color
I know a lot of folk use this color as a trailer color but any of you use this a stand alone color? Worms,craws, etc and how did you fare? I think I would do ok in stain water.

Hook color
I wanted some offset gammy worm hooks but they only had bronze in stock. I normally use the nickel black ones. Anyone see a big difference? I fish mostly stained water.

Bladed jig color for muddy water
I see this spring will be chocolate milk for the majority of my fishing ponds. I normally throw black and blue but what other colors will work? I was looking at all black, and black and yellow. Thoughts?

H2O swimbaits
Hope you guys can help. I never really tossed swim baits since I fish stained water ponds mostly. I have one or two ponds that get clear late in the year. Has anyone used Academy's hard swim baits(bluegill in my forage mostly)? They look really nice for a beginner in swimbaiting.

Academy's Ethos rods
Do they ever go on sale? Looking for one for either horny toads or bladed jigs. They fit my budget but a sale never hurts.

Magnum menace
How are you using and rigging this bait?

Siebert sale?
Yes, I'm early but preparation is key. Lol.. Does Siebert normally have a Black Friday sale? Need a few bladed jigs and some Strike King plastics. The normal prices are excellent but wanting to save on a bigger order.

Multiple use setup
What else could you use this frog setup for? I thought about flipping but I mostly fish around wood. 50lb braid with a 7' MH/F rod. I fish from the bank as well. Suggestions?

Tackle shelves,slim pickings
I know most fish in the warmer months and it maybe tough to keep the shelves stocked but come on folks. Went to BPS ( which is rare,prices too high) and was looking for a certain hook. Low in behold they were totally out of gammy hooks. I'm not saying a certain size but not one pack on the shelf. Academy does a little better in my area but they are low as well. Anyone in retail can explain why the stock remains so low during the period when it's needed the most?

Shimano lifetime warranty
Sad day because my crucial rod just snapped on a cast. Sad because it was my 6'6" MH and they don't make them anymore. What rod do they replace them with now? Anyone replace one lately? Does Shimano reply quick? Yes it is old but I'm going to try to get another. I bought them years ago for the warranty, now it's time to see if they will honor it.
