nice eye rps . . . any place local (Springfield) where you can buy that "hog trough"?

I have FOUR "Brand New" Capps and Coleman 14 foot crappie rods . . . Model CCT143 . . . on average, these rods sell for about $60 plus tax . . . I will sell them for $45 each or ALL FOUR FOR $160 . . . NEVER USED, TAGS/LABELS STILL ON RODS . . . great rods for SLOW TROLLING, DIPPING TREES, SPIDER-RIGGING . . . a GREAT DEAL . . . CALL OR TEXT GEORGE at Four-One-Seven . . . Eight-Nine-Four . . . One-Five-Three-Six

I have now downsized from a full-size fishing boat to a fishing kayak. I have already sold most of my rod and reel combos and have kept just a few to use in the kayak. I have now decided to also downsize my fishing lures and other tackle to a minimum. I have always over-bought when it comes to fishing lures and have more than I will ever be able to use. In addition, I have two adult sons who always buy fishing equipment for me on birthdays, Fathers Day and Christmas. They also gave me subscriptions to Mystery Tackle Box. I have many lures that are NEW and that I know I will never have the time to use. Bass, walleye, crappie, and trout are categories of lures and tackle that I have over-bought and over-received in MULTIPLES. Megabass, Luckycraft, Spro and Rapala jerkbaits, Senkos, War Eagle spinnerbaits, plastics (swimbaits, creature baits, flukes, worms), Zman, Yamomoto, square-bill crankbaits, medium-depth crankbaits, TOPWATER lures, TERMINAL TACKLE (Gamakatsu and Owner weighted and weightless hooks), skirted and non-skirted jigs (War Eagle), LINE (braided, fluorocarbon, monofilament) . . . and on, and on, and on. Call or text GEORGE with any questions at Four-One-Seven . . . Eight-Nine-Four . . . One-Five-Three-Six

just posted all details and photos on Craigslist . . . https://springfield.craigslist.org/spo/6077164195.html

didn't think I'd be doing a lot of laughing on this gloomy, windy and cold day in Springfield MO . . . but you guys have changed all that . . . lol

wow! . . . EVERYTHING makes perfect sense . . . most impressive thing to me about all of the responses, there seems to be a great deal of AGREEMENT among all of you VETERAN CRANKERS out there which ends up being a TIME and MONEY SAVER for those NOVICE CRANKERS like myself . . . thanks again for willingly contributing such valuable information . . . VERY MUCH APPRECIATED!!!

thanks Smalls21 and dwiebenga . . . that's some great advice . . . just those two responses narrow the purchase-possibilities significantly . . . a BIG HELP for sure!

I've got a CONFIDENCE in CRANKS PROBLEM . . . not my favorite bait to fish . . . own just a few . . . usually stay in the box . . . REFUSE to enter the 20-20 CLUB (20 colors/20 sizes) . . . want to try and give em a go this spring . . . PLEEEEEASE help me narrow the selection based on your experience . . . Wiggle Wart or RkCrawler??? . . . and perhaps color???

gonna be a lot of DUMPSTER DIVERS out tonight!!!

awesome Ben . . . especially from the perspective of a fellow-kayaker . . . I'm afraid if these FANTASTIC FISH-CATCHING REPORTS keep coming in from you and Quill, the banks are going to look like OPENING DAY AT MO TROUT PARKS!!!

Hey Quill . . . great job!!! . . . how many guys fishing from even the MOST EXPENSIVE RIG out there would've had that kind of a day??? . . . YOU ARE AMAZING!!! . . . hopefully your post will result in many boats being posted FOR SALE by the weekend and maybe I'll be able to pick up a FULLY-LOADED PHOENIX FOR AROUND $10K . . . lol

thanks so much Brad . . . very helpful info . . . definitely will report back

THANK SHAKER AND ONESHOT . . . this now gives me places to try on both Truman and Pomme de Terre . . . very much appreciate both of you for being so kind in sharing the info on Truman . . . I'm excited and will pass along results and photos as I eventually try your recommended areas . . . and special thanks to you oneshot for your input on both Truman and Pomme de Terre

oneshot . . . thank you so much for the advice . . . I will definitely give it a try . . . sounds perfect . . . that gives me 3 places to try on PDT that are all out of the mainstream and protected . . . I am soooo anxious to give them all a try . . . thanks to EVERYONE!!!

MOPan and Ranger . . . I could not have found better advice than what you have given . . . I looked up both areas on my Pomme de Terre map . . . both areas look perfect in every way from my point of view . . . can't wait to give them a try . . . I am so thankful for this forum and the advice members are willing to share . . . wonderful!!! . . . I'll post after my first trip and hopefully with a few photos . . . probably have to wait just a little while to allow my knee to further heal . . . it will then be the first place I fish in the kayak . . . thanks again!
