Can we all just decide it's okay to post rods and reels in here?

Yes, it's been that way for years. No sense in changing it now.

@FrnkNsteen I too took advantage of the BPS trade in sale but I’ve learned to hold onto my trade in until I’m ready to purchase and our BPS (Bolingbrook IL) has a cash register in the fishing department and he handled the trade in and sale transactions. I also stopped at my favorite local shop (Anglers Outlet) on my way home yesterday from a work meeting. IMG_2786.jpeg.c85db4234229b4d0de3e773be8cc9e17.jpegIMG_2785.jpeg.f14fc90dae28c23d2a0224037bdc80ac.jpegIMG_2801.jpeg.c0a85505a8f2cf0ea6403d0ba1fc27a4.jpegI’m still debating on putting an alder Abu Garcia Cardinal or a Piscifun Carbon X 1000 on the St Croix and I’ll agree with you guys that love them and although as pointed out parts aren’t readily available but as of 3 seasons they show no signs of needing any.

I gotta stay away from TW!
 

My last three purchases they didn’t include the free sticker, which were all over the $50 limit. I added them to my cart but they didn’t show up.

 

No biggie, I have three in a drawer already. 😀

 

That place is a deep pit!

The one in Cincinnati is the same way. I could have done the same thing, but I think I subconsciously knew I wanted to get something either way so I didn't really care! 😂😂.

 

Just would have been nice if they had any of which I went there wanting

You now have to scroll down on the checkout page and select that you want the free sticker for orders over $50.

Went to DSG for some Yum hellgramites and found a few extras. They had buy five clearance items get five free. I had a coupon and some score card cash. I got all this for $45 but some is for a buddy of mine. I didn't need any of it. Thanks Monkey.

Always been intrigued by DC reels and the release of the Met 70 at jdm rates was just too good for me to pass up.

I'll be using it primarily for spinner baits when the wind picks up, so of course I had to add some more sv-3's.

I'm curious how these Geecrack finesse swimbaits will do compared to Keitechs and largos.

Are these “Elastech’ie”, super strong or more a conventional material?

Just pulled one out of the package to check and it's more conventional with a little more hefty/durability feeling than I would have anticipated. Also, now my fingers smell like overly ripe corn chips. 😆

I am still in line, would you record a clip and show it around under natural light?

Stocking up on some basics that I was running low on for the year from BPS and Tackle Warehouse. Also picked up a few new items to try including the Picasso spinnerbaits recommended by @FishTank

Not the best lighting but here it is next to the regular Met. The DC is quite dark... I'd describe it s dark gray bordering on almost black.

A few new things 

 

1 dobyns Kaden 745

1 phenix m1 vortex 7’4 ml casting rod

5 jackhammers 

8 chatter bait evo 

2 one knockers

1 red eye shad

owner jungle flipping hd 3/0-5/0

4 packs micro goat

4 packs shad fryz 

6 packs micro shad heads

3 packs max scent 

1 pop x spawn cherry

1 pack juvy craw tubes

1 pack snack craws

9 packs of chatter spikes 

2 gobius

I have been waiting for the chatter spikes to show up locally, and I had to round out my evo collection also. I wanted to try the rods that I got also. I should be good till tomorrow lol. I am going to sleep, 11pm is going to come fast and the weather sucks so I am not testing any of this out for a minute.

 

Although my rod testing backlog is around 9 deep at this point maybe a little more. Just gotta tell myself no more rods lol, at least reel monkey hasn’t been knocking lately.
