Question for my fellow Deps fans...  Shudder tails.  I'm oddly intrigued by them.  Any thoughts?  Observations?  Experience?

If you want to try something similar, without paying huge premium for the limited edition shudder tails, look into Fish Arrow HuddleJack. Very similar action.

Girlfriend doesn't help the bait monkey in me, got me my new favorite lure, I love how this thing looks. Can't wait to get this thing in the water and try it out.

I've recently acquired all 3 of these reels over the past couple of weeks. I think I might have a problem...

- Shimano Scorpion XT 1000

- Shimano Chronarch 200E6

- Lew's Tournament Pro

I just dropped over $300 today.  Mostly to get started with a NED setup.  Bought several packs of jig heads and 2 different type of lures to try with it.  Oh, also bought 9 rod gloves and 9 sets of Reel Grips.

The sales go through the end of sale. i.e Day 1 sale is good through the final day of the sale. 

 

A new sale is announced each day until the final day of the sale. 

Order number 1 of 2 from TW's black Friday sale. This was the one I was most excited about, couldn't wait to get my hands on my new reel. I had my eye on it for awhile and decided to pull the trigger with the sale.

The sale ends on January 8.  They will put a little bit of everything on sale.  Odds are, everything in their clearance section will be included at some point too.  You can also save an additional 10% by buying a gift card and using it to make a purchase.

Love 'em!

Bought one about a month ago, used it once so far with no success but all they would eat that day was cranks anyways. Got it tired on for a small trip this afternoon. Hopefully she comes home with some scuff marks.

Yeah they don't ALWAYS work, but when the fish are in the mood nothing and I mean NOTHING draws 'em like the trick darters. They just stall so perfectly, you can just seem to match any cadence. Mix in the prop darters for about 6" deep looks and the +1 darter for a deep diver and they can actually cover a lot of water with them too. Just watch your drag with the katsuages and you're good. They're pricey but hot dayum I love em.

And it's a well known fact that The Bait Monkey goes semi-dormant during the warmer months but then explodes right into full attack mode right around Halloween.

 

Unfortunately he's usually well rested by then and is able to keep the pedal to the floor for several, I say again, Several months - He's RELENTLESS !
