fishing user avatarSmokinal reply : 

Just the Rage Cut R worm. I learned a lot last year so I think I'm going to just fine tune some of that stuff.


fishing user avatarFishTank reply : 

Keitech salty core stick.  I am sure it fishes just like every other stick bait.

 

Ima crankbaits.


fishing user avatarJoedodge reply : 

Just started freshwater fishing a month ago. So mostly I've tried yum dingers, trick worm, rooster tail, and rattl trap. All have been great except the rattl trap haven't caught a thing on them lol


fishing user avatargulfcaptain reply : 

Some S-Weavers, couple styles of hair jigs, and some structure/jigging spoons.

Im really excited to try out the new Spro RkCRAWLER 55. I really like Spro crankbaits so i'm sure I will be really pleased with this one as well. Has anyone used it yet? Thoughts?

Live target wakes

R2S whopper popper

R2S smalls

S waver

Mad dog shell cracker

and 2 bbz shad in 4 & 6 in.

I feel your pain, my season ended early this year due to a move so I've been accumulating since October... Luckily my wife also fishes and has only asked (so far!) if she was going to be using some of the new stuff too :grin:

 

I'm looking forward to picking up a jerkbait or 6 and trying that out, plus I picked up some crankbaits already so I'm looking forward to messing around with those too. Lastly, I picked up some drop shot stuff so that'll be my other other new thing to try out this coming season.

fishing user avatarcrankbank reply :

fishing user avatarWIGuide reply : 

I was super pumped to trya few more Livetarget offerings only to find out TW canceled them off my order due to availability. :/ Still am getting a few of them but kinda bummed. 


fishing user avatar5fishlimit reply : 

I've got a Jackall Binksy that I'm hoping does really well for me this upcoming season.


fishing user avatarFishes in trees reply : 

I just picked up some hand pour jerk baits that will get used some this spring.  Hard to explain the design and I don't know how to post pictures, but is a combination of design features of a fluke and a slug go.

 

If you remember the old Mann's  Shaddow - it is similar to that with better colors and slightly softer plastic.

  They are meant to be nose hooked - either with an open hook (vendor furnished a 3/0 octopus hook) or some hook with a wire weed guard.

 

This guy didn't have a snappy name for his bait, he just called it a "shad bait"  & in conversation he called it a "dying shad bait"


fishing user avatarriverbasser13 reply : 

Some shiny new Mirrolure prop baits and some nice looking bladed jigs made by bluebasser.


fishing user avatarMike L reply : 

Rage Shellcracker which isn't talked about much and the Smokin Rooster

which is once in a while.

Mike


fishing user avatarVtSmallmouth reply : 

Subscribed to mystery tackle box, and out of all the winter boxes I've received, I've only got one lure I already had. It's going to be a fun spring!


fishing user avatarBaitMonkey1984 reply : 

100's of new soft plastics....some of the ones I am most excited about are:

I fish the Shellcracker by itself Rage Rigged and as a swim jig trailer. This year I'm also

going to give it a try as the trailer on a Rage Blade.

I did the same. Just bought a new rod and reel for only drop shot. I just got the shipment in from TW last night. So I am stoked to try them out. But I got so many new things from poppers and top waters to I think I picked up the DT 16.... duo many in between..


fishing user avatarTrent Wilson reply : 

Keep at it Joe. I can't tell you how many times my old man tells me that it's not the right time to throw a rat l trap and I end up landing a monster. Some of my biggest bass have come off them.

I bought some of these online. They are the bomb


fishing user avatarscaleface reply : 

I have never used an alabama rig and would like  to try a light weight version . Theres a small lake I frequent that it should work well on but I dont want to take a flipping rod to cast it. Im limited on the amount of  gear  that  can be toted and need to be able to cast the rig  on a seven foot M/H pitching rod. Anyone have a suggestion ? It needs to balance out nicely with the rod or I will not use it.

I tried the drop shot for the first time last year...omg!

Now i have a dedicated drop shot combo, a pile of baits and a metric ton of drop shot weights lol

I did really well with it and it saved a few days of fishing...almost cashed a few checks with it too...( missed the money by less than 3 ounces twice)
