Tackle Warehouse really shouldn't have put those jackhammers on sale...I now own more jackhammers than I will go through for a looooooong time.

Yes sir! 

In the mail yesterday came my St. Croix VTC73HXF rod. I'm very excited to try it out this weekend.

 

Father in law picked up some Stanley spins for me from TW. Hoping they are as good as everyone says they are. 

I have asked Reaction Innovations for a couple of years now for a Black variation on the Spicy Beaver.  I never received a reply. I went to their website a couple of weeks ago and found the "Hitman". I'm  pleased.

I got a few things on the way home from Hastings, wife had blood work to be done and figured that I would stop by a small tackle shop that has different things than around Kalamazoo.

2 packs pro senkos 

1 heddon lucky 13

1 heddon moss boss

1 meps bronze slammer 1/4oz

Always good to see when you come home.

lol. Three packs of Senkos (white, black and junebug) and a pack of Owner 3/0 EWG J hooks. Wanted to try some different colors.

That’s hilarious 

Since I am all done in freshwater department and I have everything I need, Bait monkey got me on saltwater deep sea gear this summer and it got me good.

Very expensive compare to bass gear, Even the lines are very expensive and you spending about $500 to spool few small reels. Let alone the rod and reels and jigs and weights and so on. But I am good now, Only need to buy one ore reel to have everything I need.

Well two weekends with hotel stays, but thankfully a fleet farm stop each trip. 
 

The shallow flicker Shad’s should be good for bass this fall. The big bite trailers hopefully will finally get me some bladed jig bites. The tiny trebles are for the tiny crème craws, the smallies are hard on the little hooks  

 

The Largo Shad’s look great, but I need advice on how to rig them. 
 

I got some!!!  my Unicorn Bait.  the Zoom Z-Drop worm in Morning Dawn.  lets just call it pink or purple, okay?

 

I have HIGH-HOPES for this bait.  the worm undulates better on a drop shot than any worm in my opinion (I weedless Tex-Rig them always).  and they all seem to be tired of Green Pumpkin and the purples are picking up steam in my area.  we shall see.  headed to the CA Delta Saturday, not my drop shot hot spot, but I will bring some.

The largo Shads are legit. This is what I rig mine on.

I told myself I won't be buying another rod this year but the local bait shop is going out of business and they had the St. Croix Mojobass on sale for $110.  Now I need to get a new reel to pair with the new rod.

Looking forward to the 3.5" Largo Shad coming out, the 4" is huge compared to the 3". The 3" pairs nicely with an Owner 3/0 Flashy Swimmer or 1/8oz Guppy heads with the smaller hook. Tried em on the Okashira Screwhead, no results.

 

I picked up a 6' 8" MF Daiwa Tatula Spinning rod to replace a snapped Zodias. Really enjoyed the shorter rod handle from the kayak, but miss the casting distance. I heard rave reviews about silent jerkbaits, picked up a MAT SHAD Vision 110, should be a producer in clear and stained water. Grabbed a nice shad patterned (Kohoku Reaction) S-Crank 1.2 for rocking docks and some 3" Spark Shads because why not and mend-it does wonders to them.

On those Largo Shad's if you tear off that flange by the tail you'll get a wider kick/more thump. I'll usually do that in dirty water and/or during summer months. In spring I leave it as is. The 4" makes a nice swim jig trailer as well.

I bought one one in March. Paired it with a Shimano SLX bait casting reel.

A friend flew down today, and he brought my TW order with him.  The order started out much bigger and included a new reel, but I managed to shake the Monkey off my back and simply get what I had to have.  That is my story and I'm sticking to it.

The Silly Sale Price meant Re-Stock ~

The Old Skeet Reese is just for show . . .
