Latest Tackle Purchase Thread (Bait Monkey Victim Support Group)

Featured Replies

Bought a 7'0 MH Veritas spinning rod off someone who fishes in my tournament group for $30 today...he decided that he needs all matching gear and is selling his rods and reels off...I'll probably end up with an entire secondary arsenal here shortly. 

 

Just put in a restocking order to Siebert that should arrive tomorrow or Friday - and bought some D&M Custom Piranha II Swim Jigs (aka D&M Chatterbaits) in baby bass, bama bug, and bluegill colors. I'll stick pictures on here when the stuff arrives. Nothing overly expensive or fancy, but my boat looks like some kind of demented tackle shop. I'll have to do a tackle organization overhaul this winter.

I got a $50 Amazon gift card from work. I scoured it looking for quality swimbaits, but could only find one. I filled the rest out with frogs and topwaters.

I`ll be getting a Fury 705cb and some baits from the 4th of july sale at TW next week.

Nice!

Landed this heck of a haul from my local Academy today... all on sale. Those squarebills were $3 each!!!! Can't beat that!

 

 

The XCS 100's for $3 is criminal.

 

I catch the sheit out of 'em with those squarebills.

 

They are out of business as of last month.

Nice!

Thanks! Now I need to relate another reel to other duties... Or buy another rod.. :-D

Well, I currently have a Trion 40 size reel on a M/Mod rod. That just won't do and needs to be rectified. It would require another rod for this reel and another reel for this rod. I have a BC reel that's getting worn out and needs to be replaced by a quality unit, but I'm not wild about the rod either. I have an UL spin reel on a light rod. I have an UL rod with a crappy (not crappie) Zebco 11 underspin with a frozen drag on it. Tsk-tsk!!!

 

I yard-sold a couple old BC rods, so there are 2 new holes in the rod holder. :)

Pulled the trigger today and ordered 2 new rod and reel combos:

 

Dobyns Fury 735c paired with a Lews Tournament MB (Pithching/Frogging combo)

Fenwick Aetos 6'6" med. spinning rod paired with a Pflueger Patriarch Magnesium Spinning Reel (This will be my new Smallmouth/walleye sweetheart combo.)

 

Now I'm like a kid before christmas waiting for santa (UPS or FedEx) to bring mynew toys. :D
