Latest Tackle Purchase Thread (Bait Monkey Victim Support Group)
Finally got time to take my daughter out Christmas shopping for me lol, a couple jerkbaits some cranks and a few lipless, last but not least some plastics. I have been wanting to try out the googan scout jerkbait for about a year now, saw a kit at dicks that came with both the full size and a Jr so I figured why not. They had a sale buy one kit and get on 50% off. Then we stopped at Ollie's and I grabbed some lucky craft lures for $7 a piece so not too bad. My jerkbait box is slowly getting there, some megabass, jackal, spro, Berkley, yo zuri, duo realis, lucky craft, Rapala and probably something else I can not remember lol.

What does everyone think of this bait?
Looks really good to me, I like the blades and head shape. The skirt is nice also.

Well that got more expensive than I planned lol. I have plenty of high end gear but I appreciate cheaper things just as much oddly. Been wanting to try a Abu Garcia baitcaster. Decided on the new pro max wanted to match it up with a plx rod. Went to the local tackle shop and they had a st croix victory rod in finally, so I grabbed it 7,3 Marshall some 15lb invisix a jig and some trailers and some pink worms. Don't know why.

Shimano Bantam
I have 1 bantam, it's probably one of my favorite reels. No issues with it and it works great.

A few more things the monkey convinced me to buy lol, I remember hearing about these spinnerbaits. Figured they were worth a try.

A neat kit at Walmart
I don't think they are the popper is boo yah, I think the squarebill is a bomber jerkbait is a smithwick lipless is cotton cordell. I saw this kit last week and my brain is a little foggy, 3rd shift does that to you. Now I am off to bed have a good day.

Chatterbait & Crankbait Setup
I bought a st Croix MOJO bass glass rip and chatter rod, it's a heavy moderate rod rated 1/2-1 3/8 Oz. It's a decent rod I like it, I run a Curado k in 6.2 on it with 16 lb abrazx. The rod was $150.00 I think, I have also used a MOJO bass mh/f and that works great also. The last one I used was a zebco omega medium rod with a lews xfinity with 30 lb braid, it worked also not ideal but it hauled in a 17 inch bass so badly covered in weeds that you couldn't see the fish.

What's The Hardest Bait/Lure To Fish with?
Jig for me, I was supposed to focus on it this year, but plastics took over lol. The reason it's hard for me is because I don't have a lot of experience with them and I don't always take my kayak out. I like to go wading a lot.

Nothing special from me, but still some fish. Better than nothing, it's a struggle to go fishing anymore. Got a promotion yay, only 4 days a month off boo. Two tiny bass caught on bass color strike king ocho 5 inch dipped in chartreuse jjs magic, next small bass caught on a duo apex ghost firetiger squarebill, lost a 15-17 One when it came to the surface and did it's beautiful upside down head shake. I knew that was coming when it came to the surface. The last one was caught on a pop r in red eye perch color, not too bad. Well good luck to everyone who is still at it, have a good one.

They are definitely worth it, there's nothing quite like them.

Calling all 2020 Metanium MGL owners
I have two Mets also they are sort of unruly at first but settle down after some use. It's very frustrating at first though, when you have 15 different reels and don't have issues with them it can be different for sure.

Nothing special two tiny one's along with a tiny perch on a perch jerkbait lol. Had one more small bass on the jerkbait but he came off right at the front of the kayak and I had a pipsqueak come off also. I have to say it was one of those day's, fishing normally relaxes me not today though. Probably a little over a foot swells at times today made standing and fishing in the kayak fun. Two lakes I have not been out on with a vessel of sorts in years. I didn't get skunked and only threw my tiny jerkbait in one tree, got it back at least not very much room in the tiny channel.
