You are like a beacon in the night on this forum.  I like similes.

?. I wonder how much I can get for a real bluegill in a bag (hook not included ) 

They sell them at the farmers market here for like $4/lb.

You gotta be kidding! That’s illegal even in TN haha 

Bass can be sold as food here, so long as they are farm raised. You can guess what gets poached and sold as farm raised. 

Well. The TW sale got me. ?‍♂️
 

Edit to add:

Bummer, one of them is going back. The guides don’t line up with the reel seat. ?

hmmm, what does $13 get you

Those small laminate type realistic paddletail swimmers are my best overall producers. Fish Arrow J-Shads, etc.

Shimano Curado DC 150HG

I travelled to the states to visit family, and the Bait Monkey was waiting for me at the border.

Top one is made by Yohan lures, and bottom one is made by Golden Belt Customs. 

  Impulse buy on a Fuego 6.3:1 on Friday evening since I love the other one I have for moving baits.
 Went to Sportsman's Warehouse yesterday for some different colored chatter bait skirts and left with two packs of magnum Rage Menace trailers in Blugill and Summer Craw. Couldn’t resist. Oh, picked up the skirts as well.  

Not a big buy, but needed a new squarebill as I increase my crankbait selection. Picked up a 6th Sense Crush 3/8 oz. in Tipped Crawfish. Only dives 3’-5’, which should be good for the ponds I fish. Also saw Senkos in watermelon/cream laminate (#901) that looked good. And I always need Gammy 3/0 EWG hooks. 
 

That's a cannot fail purchase.  I like that crank color.  Those baby bass senkos are pretty good, and always work.

Went to wal mart for special sun glasses for bed fishing.  Left with some finesse spinnerbaits and a couple buzzbaits.

How does a spinnerbait end up in the finesse category ? Is it for dead sticking? Haha
