Nice.  I've been eyeing that dual handle model myself.

 

I got it out on the water this morning, I really liked it. I've never really used one so I thought it would feel awkward but it didn't.

Ordered Oldham jigs in the following colors (not on sale) 5/8oz, 3/4oz, and 1oz. 
 

Ordered 3 Megabass PopMax’s in GG Wild Gill, GG Bass, and Perch 15% off on a site I’m not allowed to mention

 

Ordered Zoom Z hog’s and Z Craw’s on the same site

Update: Maybe there wasn’t a 15% off after all ?

Okay y’all bad camera and bag lighting but here are Mr. Oldham’s trailer hitch jigs. I ordered these literally specific to Stillhouse. I figured that between these colors, I suspect there is one that will really work good for me. I think it may be the one with a splash of chartreuse. 
 

To Mr. Oldham’s credit, the jigs arrived very fast. I just didn’t realize they went to a rather unusual delivery location and I just figured out where they were.

I got some of the new Z-Man Chatterspikes to try out. Haven't had a chance to try them yet. I thought they were just one solid piece. I didn't realize they had these 'cuts' in them. I'm sure that helps with the movement of the bait.

 

Curious how they perform compared to the Spunk Shad. These will be more durable since they're made out of Elaztech. I am digging the Bluegill color. Has that lighter blue that you see on their gills (duh) and then the green pumpkin with orange flakes.

 

I'm willing to bet they'll come out with a smaller size for the Mini Max at some point.

Those buzz plugs do work, they cast pretty good too. If I remember correctly it weighs close to 1oz. I have caught a few fish off them in the past, I used them at night also with luck.

It’s been a minute since I posted here lol, the monkey ? has not been dormant though. 
 

2 vision 110

1 vision 110 jr

2 stunnas 

2 square bills 

some tubes 2.75-4.5”

3 packs creature baits

1 pack baby goats 

2 packs of tungsten 

1 pack nedlock z ewg heads


then a crap ton of hooks, trying to find the right hooks for the 2.75 tubes has been a real struggle. I think I have some that will work out well, I even figured out a way to stupid rig the 2.75 tubes. Those 2.75 tubes have been a pain in the backside to figure out, although the river eats up quite a bit of stuff so at least I am supplied for a while.

I received a great coupon for my birthday so this came up to $150 and with the gift cards I got from work and family,  it cost me $0. Going for a test run tomorrow.

What rod?

I've yet to dip my toes into the BFS game, but I likely will next year.

It will go on a Dobyns Sierra Ultra Finesse 700c that I already have. I'm going to move my Conquest BFS to a Megabass P5 Siglett.  The Aldebaran BFS I have will go on the new Kistler.

Poop n' shad.

 

Finally got on the poop wagon and hopefully I'll catch a turd hog™ soon.

 

Really liking this glacier color I got to try on the Siebert silver shiner swim jig.  I have been getting more bites on finesse jigs in shad colors than swim jigs overall during the cold fronts this past week.  The swim jig bite should turn back on this week!
