Got me another freebie from the bait monkey today. Caught me a jerkbait today. It was lined up with braided line so I pulled it all in, but sadly no rod and reel on the other end.

 

Ima Flit 120 

 

 

Tiny little rust spot on the front hook, but otherwise looks to be in pretty good shape.

Nice! I just got a replacement 100 Bone Shad in the mail a couple days ago. It was killing them one day last year when my buddy went back to cast and caught my line with his bait and broke my line, sending my Flit flying somewhere that we never did find. 

Made a pass through the Walmart sporting goods today and like usual I did not come out empty handed.

 

The scale was $18.00 and a backup to an identical one I have owned for 3 years.

 

The Creme lures are relatively new to the local Walmart.. They are $1.25 a pack

I have used them all and they catch fish.

The stickbait is somewhere between a Senko and a Yum Dinger.

The creature bait is nearly identical to a Baby Brush Hog.

The soft jerkbait is nearly identical to a super fluke.

 

For $1.25 a pack it is hard to pass up.

That fluke color looks killer. Good haul!

$205.00 at Mud Hole today

This was a very nice Easter present. I really like these reels as I try replace my OG Curados with them. I found this one @Kruger Farms outta Minnesota, and came already pre-spooled with my line of choice. Thanks again David G. for the great customer service.

Tackle Warehouse order for spring smallies and walleye arrived today. 2 more rippin raps on the way in colors that were backordered. I didn't have any success with the keitech swing impact fats that I tried but I think these easy shiners will be better. Going to use them on jigheads and maybe a dropshot later in the summer.

And here's the other two. Backordered items aren't so bad, its like christmas came again when they show up.

 

 

that ovetons discount code got me tempted to return some of this stuff to order at a discount .. but that Plano bag is from amazon at $36 ish dollars hopefully a good light travel bag

I just picked up a Pflueger President ultra-light reel with a BPS gift card that I got for my birthday. What a sweet little reel!

Congrats man! I'm really interested in those Lifted weedless nedheads, please do a review when you put some work in on them.

I might have bought 15 strike king red eye shads ?

haha i ended up buying 20 on that bass pro sale??

I only snagged one because i don't even use lipless crankbaits, but it was deal so might as well right ?

These just came today. Got a great deal. Going to try my hand at painting the 103P and see what happens. Can't wait to try the spools in my other reels too!

Scored a Rio Rico lot off facebook. 

 

Bought a St. Croix Avid X 6'8 M and a Shimano Stradic Ci4 for a Senko setup.  American Legacy Fishing also had the Shimano SLX casting combos for $139 with free shipping so I got a 7'2 medium with a 7.3:1 reel.  

Just got this Aldebaran 30.  Started off pairing it with my small JB rod (ML/Mod-Fast).  This thing will really launch 3/8oz jerkbaits.  Its also extremely light.  Excited to get more experience with it.  

I think I have a problem.. been working lots of overtime and got my paycheck in.. not good lol. But hey now I can use true finesse techniques ! My ALX zolo rod comes in tomorrow along with my new fishing kayak ! Can’t wait to go out. 

Nothing to show right now.

Beautiful new rod came in ! ALX ZOLO trickster. I have to say this thing feels amazing. Lightweight , super sensitive , the guides are perfect, the design , all of it! I wish I would have known about these long ago and thank @WRB for telling me about them. Can’t wait to try it out but they sure didn’t disappoint. I talk to Alex himself and he spent 10 minutes talking to me and was very knowledgeable about everything.  They packaged it super well so there was no way it would be damaged ! Super customer service , now let’s go fish. 

Old school MB auction site score. Not bad for $12 each

 

I picked up a few tubes of scented a baby creek chub lure. Haven’t noticed @whitwolf around in a while, but curious about the Rebel lures I found today. Says 80s on the package and they have a graphite line tie. The creek chub and Rebels I got for 7 at an estate sale.

Bait Monkey got me big time..... I SERIOUSLY NEED HELP!!!!!!
