Got high hopes for these things. Not pictured is a Northern Secret 110+1 JR also, didn't figure that was worth showing ?

    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.

They do look pretty good swimming on video. Like to hear how they work out for you.

Ebay got me again for some Lucky Craft Lures but they are some of the coolest colors I have found yet.   Also, got a deal on a new bag at Cabelas and some Edge boxes.   My favorite find was pulling 4 Fire Craw Jack Hammers off of the stocking cart at DSG.   I have been looking for this color forever.   Monkey got me this weekend.

The DSG by me was loaded with them last month too. I think tackle supplies have finally caught up. But will they stay caught up or is there another surge coming this spring?

Nice selections ~

And FYI, according to The Bait Monkey Tackle Purchase Doctrine (commonly known as the BMTPD) purchases made from the BR Flea Market don't count. 

So that's pretty cool.

The one by me is slowly improving a few things but still lacks a lot of ordinary stuff.  They did get in some St. Croix Rods which surprised me (Mojo, Bass X and Triumph).

That totally slipped my mind.  Yea,  that’s it......slipped my mind, an honest oversight, a little moment of mental lapse commonly known a a brain fart.  The monkey has no jurisdiction over the BR Flea Market and rightfully fitting.  It’s not about buying stuff but building and maintaining valued relationships. Something not to be denied including me.  Thanks A Jay for catching that!

I did not know this, very good to know. 
 

One question though, who do we blame for our BR Flea Market purchases then? ?

Ordered some Sufix Advanced mono and some Rage Craws today. And since it doesn't matter I've bought 2 reels from the flea market in the last week or so.

Ha, I've made three this week and there might be more before the week is over.

So I'm on my way to Alabama to fish with an old battle of mine for several days and he says "We'll get on them early with buzzbaits and when that bite dies off we'll go hit'em with lizards." So being the nice guy I am I figure alright, let me stop and grab some lizards so I don't mooch his since I rarely use them, stopped in at the Academy in El Paso while waiting for my truck to regeneration and I'll be damned if they didn't have a couple of Mike Bucca Baby Bull Shad in the rainbow trout color in stock, d**n bait monkey got me again! Grabbed 6 or 8 packs of lizards in 6 and 8 inch in a few different colors and a rod glove as well.

Ya - begged, pleaded and cajoled the wife and she let me order another rod. Nothing fancy, but one that fills a perceived gap.

I picked up a few things lately.

I just bought TW out of some 6th Sense jigs in certain colors and weights. Those specific ones are backordered until June and July now. Good Lord, please don't let 2021 shape up to be anything remotely similar to 2020 with things backordered to hell and nothing in stock. I fear what the shelves are going to look like when things heat up in the spring. That's why I've gone bonkers this winter more than anything. I was pretty screwed last year on many baits and terminal tackle and even some line.

I bought a lot of stuff this week from a lot of places because many of the things I wanted were backordered to the point that they might as well be discontinued. Well, that led to panic buying. ?

 

I also hope 2021 isn't as tackle-scarce as 2020 was.

A little restocking and some things for my kids.

Some how a new Cashion ICON flipping rod jumped in my hand at the tackle shop!!?

Decided to check out the 13 Fishing lipless. The color is called Regurgitated Shad. Didn't even notice the eyes when I ordered it. ?IKqLszS.jpg
