thanks

The tackle store by the Kraft plant in Springfield.

It think its called sportsman's factory outlet. They were running a special about a month ago.

Yes it is Sportsman's Factory Outlet. Unfortunately I think the special on the 110+ 1 is over.

I will keep an eye on their specials

Looks like I may need to get a 110+1 (or 2 or 3). Just what I need....more 25$ jerkbaits.

Has anyone used the river2sea Fetch Minnow? I got one in a mystery box and looks pretty good but haven't tried it yet. It's the smaller one but the bigger one says it gets down to 10'.

i have and throw several different stick baits but none have caught as many fish for me as a smithwick rogue in clown color

[ozarkgunner]

Each to his own.... I won't buy the high dollar spinner baits (stick to war eagle) or Cranks (wiggle wart and fat free shad) but a few lures are worth the extra money. IMO the Sammy (lucky craft top water) and mega bass are worth every dime. I have a box full of smithwicks. They catch fish. You don't need a mega bass to catch fish, but it sure helps. You don't need a corvette, but it sure drives a lot nicer than a Honda. The Mega bass flat catches fish. I wish they did not produce the result that they do as I would settle for $8 xraps, but results matter. I boat at least 50% more fish on the high dollar jerk baits than the cheaper baits. The paint jobs and hooks are much better. A jerk bait may sit in front of a fish for 15 seconds before they eat it. The small details make a BIG difference at that stage. If you get a good lure retriever, you will rarely, if ever lose a mega bass. The fish wear them before you lose them.

Bry....

I'm halfway joking about getting 3 baits.....and certainly only on sale. Seems like I spend the most on tackle during the winter when I can't go out and play too much.

I agree with using the older baits as well. Did real well in a tournament a few years ago on a 20 year old black jitterbug when everyone else was throwing a buzzbait. I may need to dust off some of my old rogues.
