I dont think this support thread is enough for you, you need in-patient treatment.

I ordered up three packs of mondo worms from googan squad today because I have been itching to try a 10” worm on Texas rig! My local places never have them in stock and bass pro local to me never has them in watermelon red or June bug. Bad thing is I got an email from the confirming the order and it said to allow 10 business days to ship....:(

So what kind of interest rate did you and @Benchmark get for your bank loans for all of that.

I reckon so and to be honest I thought the brand was just hyped up because of Covid in the beginning, but I am a believer.

I was overdue for new tackle

You were blessed with a wonderful family, still can't get over your canoe getting axed. Enjoy and share the lures with your kids.

Well, today was the day I took the plunge and decided to upgrade from my Lews American Hero combo's, picked up a St. Croix Mojo Bass 7'1" MHF casting rod and 7'1" MF spinning rod, a Shimano Curado DC and the Stradic FL in the 2500 size to go with them, I actually preferred the FL to the Ci4+ on the St. Croix rod, it balances just a bit better in my hands and just felt "right" for me, decided to give some hi vis spider wire stealth a try, 30lb and 15lb, we'll see how I like these over the next couple of weeks before I finish upgrading in this direction, but so far I think this combo is a winner

Awesome find at my local OLLIES they had two of my favorite cranks on sale for a ham sandwich.  Have another bag of them in the truck, full in lucky craft cb.

F&S is running a nice sale on Simms UPF 50 fishing gloves. Had to have 'em. I'm liking the extra material on the inside for the index and middle fingers. Should've gone in with exact change, but nope. Got a few goodies for my monkey.

How do you like those Arashi cranks?  Ollies has definitely been strong with the dark side of the force this year.
