What kind of deal did they have on those? I've eyed them for a while but the price has kept me turned off. 

Some of my glide baits finally came in, there are more to come but the collection is growing. I also have blanks my girlfriend and I painted but I will post those once the epoxy cures.

they were on clearance for like 12.97.  BUT clearance was buy 5 get 5 free.  so i was like $65 for them and then i had a 20% off coupon too..... 

sooooo i kinda had to......   i already had a few of them and really like them so for that price and the options they still had available it was a no brainer!

@buzzed bait glad to hear that you helped me help out our local DSG's in the ATL area.  I struggled to resist buying too much this sale period.  I know there are no rules on who can take advantage of a sale, I sort of hated to see some of the baits going to guys to just turn around and flog for a profit.  I plan to use this stuff!!! (and give a few away)  Interested to hear how you do with those babies in our local waters.

i've done alright with them on allatoona when the water is anywhere under say 60 degrees or so.  i also don't run a trailer on them which lets the feathers little flutter and i think makes for a slimmer looking profile.

The glides we painted turned out pretty good really happy now that the epoxy is cured, it really shows off the colour better.

So I realized I am lacking in weedless swimbaits so I picked these two up. 

 

What are those things?  

Thanks to whomever posted the edge rod sale in december....really took advantage of it.  Ordered two, then more when I put the first two in my hand.  The weible is my favorite reel seat of all time, and the NFL blanks are among the best.  They even sent me some rod socks that are made as rugged as my motor cover.  

 

 

That does it...I'm firing photobucket.  Been with those butt holes since 2001...before it was free.  Now it's a pop-up fiasco that yields more frustrations than photos.  I'm out...

Smashtech Shiners

Guys I found the jackpot, a tackle store here in the Boise Idaho area had a clearance section, each bait no more then $2 each! A bunch of discontinued Xcalibur xs4/xj4 jerk baits and spooks, Gary Yamamoto jerkbaits/crankbaits/top water, Yo-Zuri Sashimi jerkbaits/lipless crank (look amazing), Bomber Model-B, Rat-L-Traps, Hair jigs!  I cleared them out! What do you think?!  Got a smallie on the Snake River with a black hair jig 

 

Within the last 3 weeks, 5 karu vibrashocks, 7 siebert jigs, 7 siebert fogys, a lucky pointer 95, rapala husky jerk, 2 academy h20 crankbaits, 2 h20 rattletraps, 2 packs of hags tornados, 24 bass jigs from swing oil baits, 2 custom packs of stick baits and speed craws from swing oil baits, 2 packs of paca chunk trailers, flourocarbon line, 300 yards of power pro super slick, 3 packs of zoom lizards, 5 chatterbaits, 1 pack of roboworms, 1 pack of power worms, 2 packs of flat dawgs, 2 war eagle spinnerbaits, 2 cavitron buzzbaits, hooks of different sorts, 4 packs of mister twister jerk rats they are on sale online for 1 dollar a pack right now compared to 5, 2 abu garcia silver max combos, h20 jerkbait, the new baitball spinner by livetarget and a couple other things I can't remember. I love it :). Pretty happy. I love my newest additions to the collection. I'm sure im missing a few things. The bait monkey can look at this smile all day

I hit Walmart and picked up 5 spools of Red Label, 6lb test, 2 10lb and 2 12 lb test.  7 dollars each.  I also went to DSG and bought a beater spinning combo (Cherrywood with a Abu Black Max 6’6” 2 pc Medium) for my stay (work) in Carolina (Near Charlotte).  That was 29.99 and grabbed some keitechs fat impacts (5 packages) for around 3 bucks each after the discount.

Okay I know I've been spamming this thread with glide baits but I'm beyond stoked about this one. I was able to get my hands on a Kurouto Real Greed 230, this monster is 9" and 5oz I took the hooks off because they were a bit rusted but man is this thing beautiful. The only issue is it doesn't fit into my glide bait box. 

and here is it compared to a 6" spro bbz-1 so you can see how massive it is

I'm kind of glad I haven't caught the glidebait bug yet, that's an expensive niche part of swimbait fishing, which is expensive enough as it is. I have enough trouble not worrying about losing a mattlures or slammer, nevermind something like a deps, hinkle, hiro etc.
