Just a bit

They won't spool me with my 2000yrds of 6lb braid!

But really, needed to update my surf reel. Was running an old heavy Penn reel that was undersized for 25 lb mono and a 10 ft rod.

I don't know. Throw that reel on a 4'6" ul rod and toss some trout magnets....Thump!

just kidding. Seriously, nice surf reel.

it wasn't the only thing I bought ... but the most expensive lure today was the little johnny rat.

being coy here... 'there's a couple that might fit the bill...'

but there are no secrets in bass fishing. although I make sure all my backgrounds are mono-chromal.

The winter fever monkey just rung me up for 16 of those new Rapala OG Slim crankbaits. These things look great!

caddyjoe77 · February 17, 2021, 10:01:31 AM

I am waiting on tacklewarehouse to hurry up and ship those to me.

The bait monkey got me good this weekend. I ordered the new Power Gear (PG - 5:1 ratio) Curado K for my early spring/late fall cranking needs. And then while respooling a few reels on Sunday, I dropped my line stripper tool on the concrete in the garage and broke it, so of course I had to order $90 in stuff along with a new line stripper.
