way to one up everybody!!  seriously, those are 4 sweet purchases!!

haha. I cheated with the kayak. are you sure that no one posted a ranger boat in the previous 149 pages?

Picked up two Pflueger Trion combos for $25 total from a local auction site. I knew the rods were busted but was happy that the reels were perfect. Now to figure out why I needed them...

bought a couple dozen swing jigs (swingoilbaits). Nice owner hooks, diff. sizes/colors. For much, much less that trig(hook & tungsten worm weight).

I started adding it up, must have $30 worth of weights hung up in the creek this year alone, and $30 worth ain't hard to lose.

Figure less than $1.75 for the awesome swing jigs and it don't hurt as bad.

4 Kistler rods 3 were Zbones @ 1500.00

Nearly every Paycheck Baits Transporter frogs I could find. They're being discontinued so I bought out supplies from all over. About $400 worth.

My photographer friend calls it Gear Acquisition Syndrome or GAS.

A better setup for my 5yo grandson. South Bend bait casting rod 5' ultra lite $8, south bend push button reel $5. It's a nice cheap combination.

For a kid. I'm sure he will break. I give him a full replacement guarentee

With a new flambeau two shelf tackle box full of lures, plastics, bombers.

The dirt bike monkey got him two new dirt bike tires too.

What a birthday.

Let me know how it goes for ya, if you would. 

Ok, I will try to remember to give ye a report!

Whoa! What kind of swimbait is that?? Love the double top hooks!!

Also I picked up an 1st gen MXF *** Black spinning rod for a friend after I saw them on sale for $59. It will be his first nice rod, as he's been fishing with Ugly Sticks for as long as I can remember. He is going to be so stoked!!

It's a roman made negotiator custom. (That's what it's called, nothing custom about it.)

I'm bait drunk. The bait monkey has my credit card it's all his fault.

I just ordered more affordable inline spinners. Mainly in white, black, chartruese. I'm thinking in river fishing they will eat anything.

Btw, the 5yo grandson loved his tackle box and lures.

Fair warning the C&M ones mainly the 1/2 oz ones the finish wasn't good on the heads. The Brawley brand have been awesome. Still great buys even having to repaint the large C&M jig heads if you want. I have just as good luck with them beat up. Guess the fish aren't worried or don't mind about a lead colored jighead. And if I get hung up I didn't lose $5 haha

My wife asked me if I wanted to go to Gander Mountain, I said yes, she was joking, I wasn't. So I got on *** and ordered some poppers and hooks in been needing, and some sale items I didn't need, bad thing is I placed an order yesterday for some things I needed, and didn't need. Lol always end up with more then I intend on getting.

Met the owner of Big Joshy Swimbaits online, and got a package he graciously sent my way today. His company is legendary in Ohio, and I'm willing to bet I'll have some NC bass fooled by his products as well. And yes, that is a craw/swimbait. Coolest thing ever!

I'm from Ohio and those things are very popular. I haven't used them yet but from local fishing forums I'm on they catch nice bass. The slush color is popular for smallmouth fishing the local rivers.

Another Ohio lure company to check out is vic coomer lures. Look them up on Facebook they sell from the Facebook page I think.

Those Swimbait Craws look pretty awesome.

The bait monkey's hold over me is getting stronger........

A broken rod, tempting bargain bins, and a great deal on Flea Bay led to a tackle binge this last week.

Everything is new to me except the reel. Minus the combo, everything was purchased for $40.00, which isn't a half bad deal!

Gonna have fun testing them all out this week.
