all LING cod season, they were sold out. now? they have them, and they are also 40% off. I bought a pile.

I have so many LMB beavers bought in the off season....so many I had to hide the duffel bag from the wife. in my defense I bought a load of them for my Mexico trip only to find the bass bite everything. hahah.. I won't need to buy beavers for 3 seasons.. I got them all 25% off last winter.

my grass-piece stash makes a toilet paper hoarder question my sanity. the off season. I cant wait to start fishing soon, so I can save money!!! LMB trip scheduled for next weekend at Lake Berryessa. gah.i hope they are biting beavers.

I bought one lure this winter because of a couple of recommendations here. I have accumulated lots of lures over the years that have never been used, so they are new to me. I plan on using a bunch this year. Bait Monkey can kiss my rear.

I’m already in trouble. One order from 6th Sense, one from TW and a new swimbait/glidebait rod from Edge. And the Wife approved a new Terrova trolling motor.

I too hope Spring gets here soon,,,,,,, gonna run out of money!

I used to be pretty bad but at this point I only use like 10% of what I own and I've already bought backups so I can't justify buying much more unless I want to try something new. I've been staying away from the grass piece because the last time I fell in love with a bait (jackhammers) I stocked WAAAAAY up when TW had a sale. Should last me a few more years lol.

I spent less this winter than in the past.. so far.. but there are about 42 days to go so anything is possible.

Rods were TW

Sahara used on eBay. Most of my reels come off eBay.

I would like to see tungsten weights go on clearance. I'll go back to lead before spending more than two dollars for a quarter oz weight.

Expect the opposite, prices will be going up.

I’m gonna add a rod to my set up because I have a reel. And I may replace one spinning rod. Other than that I bought a few baits to try and a little terminal tackle. This year I’ll fish what I have and that’s that.

So far this winter the only new items I have, I got for Christmas. I do plan on picking up a new reel for frogs, and maybe some plastics that I'm running low on.
