By the time I went to order the cull shads were gone and luckily I was able to order one of the Finisher jerkbait things. I know it is a FFS bait, but I have liked the 6th sense hyperjerk, but feel it sometimes it runs to high, hoping the finisher has a similar action but runs lower in the water column.

 

So lesson learned on these sales order quickly if looking at popular items.

Yeah, I love Omnia but they definitely sell out fast on a lot of products.

I also have a hyper focused list of soft swimbaits, swimbait hooks and jigs, and jerkbaits. All part of my plan to beat the monkey. 

You can’t beat the monkey, you can only hope he continues to let you eat and live indoors.

As long as you feed him you will be OK.

Ever used them? I have a pack but haven’t given them much of a chance.

Local Walmart has 5" Senko packs for $2.50 and Plano Edge 3700 boxes for $14.50.  Might be worth checking your local stores.

Mine just has the stupid Ozark Trail plastics on sale for $1.

Amazon has 17lb 200yd spool of seaguar Tatsu for $25. (typically runs around $60)

"17lb 200yd spool of seaguar Tatsu"

 

You know, I only have some half full 1000-yd spools of 12, 15 and 20. And I've never tried the 17. And the price is nice.

I've been trying to justify trying it out for years. I love using 17# for jigs and heavier cover chatterbaits. Thanks!

That’s a heck of a price for Tatsu. Unfortunately I end up with too much leftover with small spools & don’t use braid/leaders.

 

Not nearly as cheap but:

 

10lb 1000yd spools are $132.18 (30% off)

12lb 1000yd spools are $167.19 (27% off)

15lb 1000yd spools are $189.19 (18% off)

22lb 1000yd spools are $164.84 (43% off)

My Walmart deal wasn't as good as I thought.  The packs of 5" Senkos I bought only have 7.  I think everyone else sells packs of 10.

Daiwa has another Tatula promotion going on. Last year was HUK, this year Simms.

I starved mine.  One month going strong.  He's getting skinny over here.

Just wait until his silverback replacement shows up. 😂

Which are awesome!  I’ve caught fish on the Sinker Stick and Kicker tail worm. The stick bait sinks fast and is heavy with good waggle. I’ve heard somewhere Netbait made the plastics. JT Kenny was pushing them at one point.

Walmart: $1 Rattlin’ Rage Craws in green pumpkin and summer craw in my local Walmart. Wasn’t marked on end cap display but scanned in app and jackpot!  Weird black/blue and junebug were not on clearance. I guess if you know your local Walmart and something seems to not supposed to be on shelf, scan it!

Also had $2.50 black/blue 5” senkos marked on shelf

I just figured out that this is your profile photo.  The bait gorilla.  I failed to make that connection for years until now!

@gimruis,

 

@NorthernBasser’s profile pic is more than likely Bait Gigantopithecus.

 

From Guinness World Records:

The largest primate of all time was Gigantopithecus blacki, an enormous extinct cousin of the modern-day south-east Asian orangutan (Pongo spp.), which lived in southern China and the Indochinese Peninsula between 2.15 million and 300,000 years ago; reasons for its eventual extinction remain unclear. Estimates derived from its fossilized 2.5-cm-wide (1-in) cheek teeth and huge jawbones suggest that Gigantopithecus stood up to 3.7 m (12 ft) tall when propped on its hind legs, and weighed up to 280–300 kg (617–661 lb), though more conservative estimates favor a standing height of 2.5–3 m (8 ft 2 in–9 ft 10 in) and mass of 200–300 kg (440–661 lb).
