Haha hey that's my move!

I make the "full list" and then go over it to eliminate things I don't actually need. It makes me feel more frugal at the very least.

This came today. I need smaller, deeper and more finesse jerkbaits to fish clear water smallies compared to you guys and your shallow largies. Moving from Rapala (which have worked just fine) to Jackall. Not quite up to Megabass. Last pic is the Jackall stuff I've gotten in the last 3 weeks. Can't shake this JDM baitmonkey.

Digging the oversized Jackall order. Nice choices!

I really like finding awesome deals on killer baits in older patterns.  It warms my heart.

In other news, there are tree crews all over the place outside my shop today.  I work in a turn of the 1900's era mill that's been horribly neglected for decades that's along a river and a development company came in and bought the whole place a few years ago.  They are building a river walk/boardwalk along the river and it's basically making it so I can fish from ~30yds out of my shop's front door, and easily take my kayak to work in the summer.  Color me excited, I've been watching the machines go to town out the window like a 9yo.  

Lost three Sieberts jigs last weekend, so that justifies the 20 I ordered to replace them with...

Man, I don't know how you can buy all that stuff here in Canada. Its so EXPENSIVE! I think I'd cry every time I lost one

Yeah 20-25$ a lure and 10-12$ for the plastics. That's why you buy 2 of everything! :respect-059:  I have a problem OK?!

Especially with how bad the dollar is right now, I picked up a couple of Vision 110's, after it was all said and done they cost me $39 each to my door.

But it must be done!

3rd day in a row I get an order from Japan. Feels like Christmas but only costing me 100s of dollars. That's close to what I paid for these X-dads.
