    This is an extension from the 'Picking Out New Baits' thread in which I said my wife and boy were bass bait shopping for my birthday.  They done good.

Ordered an Invicta diver... Err, oops wrong forum... Well I'm here already, now I will be able to see what time I get on the water and how long it takes to catch nothing, and then what time I get off the water in style...

Winter is killing my wallet!

Ebay's killing mine!!!!

 

I did get a great deal on the new Quantum TourMG......$160.00 instead of retail @ $279.  But I really don't need it but it was such a great deal.

Now time for a rof to pair with it.

Not a fan of quantum but that reel looks pretty sweet

Thanks to Travis23 I now have 5 new Storm baits coming. And I promised myself I would stop spending until I saved up for my Musky Combo and swim baits I wanted.. Don't see this one happening.

Pffffff...  Child's play.  Just make sure you have something she wants delivered on the same day.  I call it "the package deal effect".  While she's tapping away on her iHooziedinger or slipipng into her cozy somethingorother you can be free string up your new reel in peace AND still be Mr. Awesome later on.

Funny you said that. Our anniversary is coming up and I told her she is going to the spa and getting her hair and nails done. The first words out of get mouth are "and what are you buying yourself"..

I might need to package the reel and rod in a anniversary/fathers day special for myself. And the seems I will just order..

Always easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask to buy it... lol

I love the husky jerks. I've caught so many good sized smallies on the ones I got. They are worth every penny I paid for them.

Needed a few extra decorative paper weights for the office!

 

On a serious note they are a top jig and jig company for me. The colors and quality are two of the main reasons without going into too much detail. I don't really lose them anymore than jigs from other manufactures. If they ever get the hippy jigs in stock again I am buying at least 50.

I recently picked up a nice used Saros 3000F and a new Symetre 2500FL. Then I got wind of a local rod manufacturer going out of business and decided to take advantage of the situation. I picked up a drop shot spinning rod, 5 7' medium spinning rods, a 6'6" light spinning rod for inline spinners, and another 6'6" medium spinning rod. I expanded and replaced all of my cheaper rods with these. I also picked up a couple of casting rods, a 6'10" medium for jigs (which fishes like a MH I'm told) and a 6'6" medium for jerkbaits. My wife asked me what we were going to do with all those rods and I told her, "go fishing more!" She said, ok :-) I also picked up a few shaky heads (spot removers and owner stand ups). This has been such an expensive winter so far and I still have 2 reels that I am on the hunt for. Realistically though, I might not even need to purchase anything until mid summer unless something goes catastrophically wrong with some of the new equipment.

 

 

 

 

 

But I do recall seeing bulk packs of senkos on that auction site, plus I just bought a rod for jerkbaits and I don't have many of those... Oh please, let there be a bunch of jerkbaits on sale when BPS has their sale in February!

I received my Jelly Worms from Amazon. The Tequila Green and Pumpkinseed Chartreuse are fine. The 100 pack of Scuppernong are not. They are not brown they are dull red and they are hard. A lot harder than Jelly Worms are suppose to be . They are unusable.  Im glad they were only three dollars. Lesson learned. I guess I could boil them to soften them up but I think Ill just throw them away.  I dont know how they got so hard . I have thirty year old jelly Worms that are still as soft as the day I bought them.

 

On the bright side the sanrenmu 7010 pocket knife I also ordered is amazing for an 11 dollar knife .
