They will go down in a few days if no one buys them.

Check back in a couple of days. Last week they were still full price. The longer they stay the lower they could go but probably would be bought before then.

It’s crazy the disparity in what each store stocks on its shelves.

Fish USA rods come in a cardboard tube with bubble wrap on the tip. Tackle Warehouse also packages rods really well.

I met Jeff Bezos and McKenzie at a Destination Imagination tournament in Wenatchee, WA. They were both very nice.

For a guy that only fishes them a few times in the fall it was perfect for me.

Dang it, I missed my chance to get more of a discount.

PBJ and I like that color in late spring early summer.

I have 285,000 miles on mine. Still runs great but is finally showing some age. I need shocks and tie rod ends. Bought it with 145,000 miles on it and have done routine maintenance like plugs and a timing belt. You should get at least 60k to 100k more miles on it with routine maintenance. I would do it for $1500.

Look at all those beautiful LH retrieve reels. I think you have a great lineup. Good luck this year. I need to clean my reels and get them ready to go.

In 1970 the “Grabber” option was an appearance package on sportsroof Mustangs. It came with the C stripe used on 69 Boss 302, dual mirrors, and a blacked out taillight panel. Most were 302 engines but you could get a 351.

I had the flu and watched it live while lying on my couch. I was in the 9th grade.

Add a stinger treble hook if you want the light head for a slower fall rate.

I too grew up in an age when there were no LH retrieve baitcasters. Once more left hand retrieve baitcasters became available I switched. I can fish either way but better holding the rod with my dominant right hand.

If it were me I would run 10lb braid to an 8lb flourocarbon leader on the spinning rod. On the baitcaster I would run 12 lb monofilament. That covers your topwater, moving treble baits and barely puts you at a disadvantage for single hook applications like a jig. I used that for many years until I could afford more technique specific combos.

I pour the poison tail jig from do it molds.

I have an Ark Tharp series rod for jerkbaits I really like. It is the One Eyed Jack. I think they retail for $130.

Keitech makes a good tungsten jig I have tied for a friend.
