Found out my Cabela's had the swing shad for $2.49 a pack.  Had to stock up.  Also picked up some 1.5 flats and weighted hooks.

Yep.  Good crankbait.  I don't know if it was a mess up or what, but last year there were 3-4 colors of Arashi 3's and 5's that were scanning at the price checker for $0.88 at Cabela's.  Needless to say, I bought around 15 of them.

Did you mean to order the 190 size whopper plopper?  Cause' it is like 8 inches long, weighs 2 3/4 ounces and sounds like a brick landing in the water.  It's the original sized wp, wuich was designed as a musky bait.  Tackle warehouse once accidentally sent me the 190 instead of the 90 size, and I was surprised at how big it was.  Needless to say, I returned it.

Complete accident.  I realized this today sitting at my desk at work then I just saw your comment today.  How is tacklewarehouse with returns/exchanges?

They have been very good about returns and exchanges, they will give you a full refund on the item even if you just changed your mind on it or accidentally ordered the wrong size.  I once got a defective buzzbait, and called customer service about returning it.  They just said to keep the defect and they sent a replacement without any pictures or anything.  He even gave advice on how to fix the defect.  Send it back in the same box it came in with the included return label, and either request a refund or a different size to replace it.

Nice Score! I would have been all over that too, I love the swing shads. 

I am one step away from needing a shrink. Slipped by a local chain store and found a bunch of clearance stuff from $1 - $5.

 

I need help!! :help2: I'll use some stuff for saltwater maybe but I can't stop buying stuff. The Yum bags were older stuff and bought 6 of each.

My local walmart had gamakatsu and mustad KVD terminal on clearance. Bought $80 worth with most packs $1.50-$2.00. Should be set for a while. Bought a bunch of finesse wide gaps, kvd zero twist dropshots, barrel swivels, and various sizes of round bend worm hooks. Also bought a some 20lb and 10lb seagar red label at $5.00 a piece. Really made me mad because I had just bought a spool of 20lb red label at cabelas a couple days before for $14.99 that I was going to use on a steelhead trip. 

I have been wanting to try the Cavitron's and finding the discontinued 1/8oz on Amazon Canada and on sale was especially surprising. The line I couldn't resist for $6.

I just decided to organize everything when I got home and these are all the bags of pit bosses and a few other things to go in a new soft plastic bag 20170311_120926.thumb.jpg.67e656e07e64b55297423a099eb181c8.jpg

Got $20 cash back from DSG, the jerkbaits were on clearance for $3, and I finally broke down and bought a whopper plopper.

Finally found a sale at Field & Stream for stuff I actually needed. $20 for 300 yards of Power Pro, and $5 each for any Trilene XL. Also snagged this sweet Yeti thermos.

I bought the same exact one a few weeks ago as it caught my eye. And go figure the first mtb pro comes in and has this in it. Atleast I have a spare now. Sucks though that I have no use for the huge boom boom swimbait

Yeah my wife looked at that swimbait and said nothing would bite that around here. I want to chuck it all day just to try and prove her wrong, she said the same thing about the Yamamoto heart tail swimbaits, just as I got hit on one :lol:

Being that my only means of fishing is via the bank the spots I have access to don't have bass really big enough to choke it. The pickerel would most likely chomp the tail off and the snake heads would demolish that thing. I could be wrong though but I honestly have very low expectations throwing that thing in my situation at least 

Got these today.

The reel was from a member here from the flea market. It needed a dragstar to be perfect but works flawless as he stated its like new the pic just blows. :ph34r: Ordering a new dragstar today from Lews and Ill have another nice reel. Thanks for the great deal @offsidewing .  

 

All three of the jerk baits are the KDS brand. I had to try them $3.99 each and they just kept calling me to try them. :rolleyes: I will say the colors are every bit as nice in person as they are on their website. The hooks also look nice but not sure of exact make but at this price I can add what ever brand I prefer and still have a very inexpensive bait. Just have to see if they work as they should.
