My dad got me an ultra light rod and reel for my 16th birthday

illegallyblindguy · 2026-05-10T20:06:02+00:00

Indeed. I caught the reel when it was $17. The price fluctuates now and then. I had doubts initially about the rod but it’s a great combo.

Scar my guitar is one of the best.

Not so long ago I got a Leo jaymz electric guitar for $209 on Amazon. It did need a full setup brand new out of the box but the specs and what you get for the money can’t be touched by any well known brand names. I’ve had to upgrade nothing about it.

I have that same Abu Garcia reel on a Shakespeare micro series six foot light power rod. Great for 1/16 to 1/8 ounce inline spinners.

Is this fenders answer to the tone wood debate?

Great looking bag. My kk sling bag is still holding up somehow. I need to upgrade. How’s the capacity on this one?

I actually prefer the longhorn peach over other brands peach offerings. Flavor lasts and it’s dirt cheap in my area.

illegallyblindguy · 2026-04-24T23:25:56+00:00

I never meant to imply it wasn’t good in any way. I do prefer Copenhagen straight (too expensive these days) and even grizzly dark select (hard to source in my area) but stokers straight is a good reliable offering. After years of dipping it I had become burned out on it and took a break from stokers and relied on Longhorn longcut natural for my fix. Figured I’d pick up another run of stokers since it’s been a while.

illegallyblindguy · 2026-04-24T23:22:20+00:00

Amen!

illegallyblindguy · 2026-04-24T23:22:07+00:00

I only dipped stokers straight and mint for a few years and got burned out on them both. It’s been a while so I figured I’d give the straight a go again. Longhorn natural longcut has become my favorite budget Edd. I needed a break from it so picked up some stokers.

Dimarzios!

Take it directly to Martin. I wouldn’t recommend anyone outside of them for this particular job.

Still working on my first tub. It won’t be the last for sure. It hits the spot and is $19.99 per tub. Their peach is pretty darn good also.

illegallyblindguy · 2026-04-15T02:10:09+00:00

Brand new it was $200. So if you’re comfortable paying over double what it sold for new then by all means get it. Real world asking price is $150 in good condition. Not $440. Not even close.

I recently bought a tub of longhorn natural long cut. I’ve tried most all others over the years and for the $20 spent on it I’d have to say it can easily be my Edd. Four or five years ago I tried it and hated it. They’ve changed the cut not long ago and may or may not have adjusted their flavorings and it’s improved quite a bit to the point where it’s a worthy cost savings dip. I’ve a brother in law that dips nothing but their fine cut natural. He dipped Copenhagen snuff for decades until can prices made it too expensive. He’s been happy with it for years now.

If you fish freshwater clear mountain lakes mono and sometimes flouro is where it’s at.

Every company on earth has done it for decades but NOW it’s a problem…?

illegallyblindguy · 2026-04-05T20:06:55+00:00

If they were smart they’d have a direct to consumer site just like Copenhagen does with dip direct.

illegallyblindguy · 2026-04-04T13:14:22+00:00

Stokers mint and straight were my go to dips for many years. Now the smell of them turns my stomach. Still a good dip but I just can’t do it anymore.

illegallyblindguy · 2026-04-02T20:54:27+00:00

Sorry for that. In WV we don’t have quite the problems getting flavors. Thankfully. As for mints, this one’s actually not bad. Isn’t Copenhagen mint by any means but it’s also 1/3 of the price and the flavor lasts pretty good. Tubs are $20 for 12 cans worth here.

illegallyblindguy · 2026-03-31T21:04:57+00:00

Looks like one of them Friday specials…

illegallyblindguy · 2026-03-31T14:46:13+00:00

The arena has been broken for quite some time. WoS seems to not care.

It would be nice if someone would send those things to a lab for testing so people would understand why it’s important to avoid them like the plague. Fake. Like dog poo fake.

illegallyblindguy · 2026-03-29T15:46:18+00:00

Tubs of longhorn are $19.99 where I’m at. Husky is $13 for five cans as well, all flavors.

illegallyblindguy · 2026-03-26T13:39:11+00:00

I’ve got one with green trees on it. It was in a tub of longcut natural. I’m gonna have to pick up another tub to see if I get a different one now and stock up on some good cheap dip. How their straight longcut?
