Bait monkey put me in a Full Nelson
We went to Bass Pro today and I went the distance with the monkey, but he TKO'd me.
Baby Brush Hogs: Green Pumpkin Green - 3 bags Super Chunks: PB&J - 3 bags Black - 3 bags Super Chunk Jr: Green Pumpkin Blue - 4 bags Black - 3 bags PB&J - 3 bags Gene Larew Biffle Bugs: Blackberry - 3 bags Sooner Run - 3 bags Gene Larew Hardheads: 5/16oz - 3 packs Bass Pro Tournament Series River Bug: Black/Blue Flake - 5 bags Dark melon/Purple-Gold Flake - 5 bags Greenpumpkinseed - 5 bags Strike King KVD 1.5 Squarebill crankbaits: Sexy Blueback Herring - 2 Chart Shad - 1 Strike King Series 1 Squarebill crankbait: Chartreuse Shad - 3 Strike King Series 4S: Firetiger - 3 Lucky Craft Kelly-J: Aurora Black - 1 Chartreuse Shad - 1 And I bought 4 packs of spinnerbait blades for some spinnerbaits I am getting ready to make for slow rolling this spring, as well as an inflatable life jacket. I wanted to get some more of the KVD 1.5's but it was not a suprise to me that they were pretty well sold out. For the record I didn't buy these baits because the Classic was won on it, I bought them because I was wanting some more squarebills and I really liked the profile of these baits. I have been making a big attempt this winter to stock up on all the softplastics that I use a lot so that I can keep 2 few bags in the boat of each bait/color and 5 more of each bait/color on the pegboard in the garage. This way when I go through a bag in the boat then I can replace it with a bag out of the garage. Once a month I will go over the pegboard and do an inventory to see what I need to get back to having 5 bags of each bait/color and restock. This way I will make a list of exactly what I need and will help me cut down on impulse buys while I am standing in the store trying to remember what I need. It will also keep me from buying bags of baits that I thought I needed only to find that I had 3 more bags in the boat that I didn't know I had overlooked. This all started with making a list of all of these baits for Christmas and birthday presents, and then buying what I didn't get for presents in a few trips. I am pretty close to having all of the baits on my list now. A few colors of Speed Craws and Brush hogs and I should be set. Last edited by carolina-rig-01; 03-06-11 at 01:19 AM. |

Congrats on all the new tackle Kory. I really like your little toy truck in the top of the picture too! (now you all watch, he'll tell us it's Lake's!)

No I haven't tried the Tatsu yet. I actually ordered the Seaguar through a buddy who can get it for me at dealer cost. I seen that Tackle Warehouse that that deal going but in all honesty what good would a 40 yard spool of Tatsu do? I mean you could use it as leader material but I don't see any point in that.

That is a great haul! Was this a trip to bps that it was easier to ask to be forgiven or did you have permission for the small purchase?

I had permission. Britney was actually with me. Then when we checked out she said "well that wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be". I looked at Lake and said "sounds like permission to go back and get some more", then Britney said "nope, now we can go to the mall".

You got a good wife there! Most would not have said that! Hopefully the mall was not too painful for you. |

Sounds like you have a good woman there Kory. Thats a great haul! I needed some square bill cranks this year and bought some LC's and a couple Strike Kings too. But I also bought 3 of the Excaliber square bills. Can't wait to try those out. The Excalibers look great to me.

The only use I could see for a 40yd spool would be on a reel strictly for pitching. BB

And WHO's happier than Kory about that? At least he should be that he isn't sitting on a branch of the Sasquatch Family Tree, like a couple of us that shall ( see I know where to use "shall" in it's proper context) remain nameless. |

Anthony, the only way you're getting my 50th is smashed up in a bag.
