What Did You Buy Today!? 2024
JellyMan reply :
This is always a great thread. Post up what you got... pics and videos too!
It was a big day for me. Tackle Warehouse order. Revo STX, Mojo Bass rod, some soft plastics, line, Jig heads, new softbait storage system, and some apparel.
I'll do a little unboxing vid when it all comes. Those are always fun.
What did YOU buy today?
Tuckahoe Joe reply :
Went to Walmart today for some groceries and walked through the fishing section. They almost always have the same stuff but today I noticed some Strike King buzzbaits that I'd never seen in there before. Since I didn't have any buzzbaits and they were only $4, I picked one up. Caught my first spinnerbait fish today on a chartruese Strike King spinnerbait and then lost it so Im gonna pick up another one of those tomorrow.

12 Booyah Buzzbaits 1/4 and 3/8 oz ($1 each)

Wwwwhhhhaaattt?! Dude, where is this magical Walmart? My Walmart never has deals like this on fishing stuff.
Brayberry reply :
I'm in Alaska so "bass fishing" stuff is always on mega clearance, because they get it in on accident. Can't wait to get back to the states in 4 months, but I'm loving the sales till then 
You can only catch but so many Salmon and trout before it gets old.
JellyMan reply :
I'm going to go to Wal-Mart in the morning to see. Those prices are ridiculous. I hope my Wal-Mart is on drugs to.

Ah...gottcha. And X's 2 on the trout. Thats all Ive been catching all winter. Its nice to be catching something but Im really glad that Im back on the bass now.
Brayberry reply :
Yeah I think I'll head back up there and buy them out of the Berkley Line, $1.50 for a 300yd spool can't be beat
tbone1993 reply :
Today I only bought storm swimbaits as a joke. They weigh in at around 3 oz and are almost 8 inches long with a 3 in boot tail on the end.

Not much, just some flukes, hooks, KVD L&L, and my very first tube of Megastrike. I'm really excited to get out this weekend and try out the Megastrike. I haven't caught a fish since last May (A new kid + college + work = no time for fishing) and I'm hoping it might help a little bit.

Went in walmart the other day to get a tube of grease, decided I needed some more spike it and rounded the corner. Saw that the clearence box was full. Xcaliber XR50's for $2.29... I bought them all.
jhoffman reply :
Installed my new elite 4 yesterday, today ordered a ram mount for the bow that fit the humminbird I removed at the console. I also took advantage of BPS sale for a second time and ordered some sick fish and some 8lb mono. Then I ordered a spool of 10lb fluro off the bay and a new mini a-rig. Last week I made my third pre season powerteam order and have almost 100 tubes as well as various other PT baits ready to go. Last week I ordered that BPS bionic reel that they have marked down to be a dedicated topwater reel.
I am officially done buying anything till I get some birthday gift cards, then it will be a couple new rods and I probably wont buy anything else for quite some time. I have no room for anything more.

I hear ya brother.... my trailer needed new tires so I ordered those. When I changed them out I found out I had blown rear seals. Didnt know what the bearings were so had to pull the hubs(which were older bolt style and I wanted rid of). Since I had the hubs off, I left them off and the trailer on jackstands. We had high wind, the boat and trailer fell to the ground. I smashed my hand getting it back up in the air. My new hubs came and I installed them. I no sooner finished and got to thinking they sent me a single lip seal, checked online and sure enough they did so I had to order a new set of seals which will need put on in the next few days. I then decided to put my new fish finder in, had one heck of a time pulling the transducer wire out and back in cause it was so tight. Went to step out of the boat and missed the step and caught my leg between the shift lever and steering wheel while hanging in the air with all my weight.
I hope my streak on that side means that next weekend is a good finish.

i always laugh when people say fishing is relaxing. I understand your struggles. Its always something. Whenever i am dealing with problems, i think of how easy it was when i had a battery,trolling motor,john boat, a spinning combo and baitcast combo and 2 small plano boxes. Some of my best fishing is done when im in my kayak with 1 combo and 1 plano box. But i always have to take things to the extreme.

Shimano Cardiff 100A. For the price I got it for, I couldn't pass it up. I'll probably just stick it on an extra rod and keep a squarebill tied on, but it was a fun way to keep the tackle monkey at bay. It looks like it's getting Boca's and Carbontex, and possibly some other mods, so we'll see how she does

I either swim them or use a technique called "feathering". I cast it out toward the bank, cover, weed line, ect..., let it fall a few seconds, pull the rod tip up in a smooth motion "not a twitch or a jerk", reel in slack and let it fall, pull rod tip up smooth, reel in slack let it fall, all the way to the boat. Works wonders from shore and from the boat.
In reality, you can fish the speed worm in a million different ways but those two presentations get me bit like crazy. Ive caught a 7 1/2lber on the 6" speed worm. Try the larger one for those hogs. Make sure it's the Ultra Vibe Speed Worm. This worm has been a deadly secret for me when everybody is throwing brush hogs, trick worms, and lizards. Everybody is using this or that but I get the numbers on this worm every time.

The point is it made me stop in again. This time I was drawn to the close out clothes rack, towards the back of the store. I found a set of Hunters Specialties polar fleece long underwear, list is $68 per piece. $35 for the set, tops & bottoms.

Just got back from my Wally with some clearance items. 2 jerk baits, 2 top water jerk baits, 2 poppers, and 3 crank baits. All the YUM products were nothing of interest to me. I would rather buy my producing baits and keep all the "excess" out of my life.
Oh and not on sale, I got a KVD Sexy Frog, new Berkley multi tool, and a Berkley digital scale.
Pretty good for $48 bucks!
Usually when I shop it's at BPS and I cant get out of there with less than $75+ on the register total. I try tho.

I don't have any BPS reels, but I do have their carbonlite rods the older cork versions and the new black handles, and for the money I love these rods. Never had any break and never had any issues with them. You will like the rod.

Well I changed my mind on that the next day, and called and canceled the order. Thank god they didn't ship yet. So today, after it got too muddy to work, I decided I better go to the city and at least handle several UL rods before I pull the trigger on one. They had the St Croix Panfish rods where I went, and several nice Shimano UL rods. I ended up going with the Shimano Convergeance 6' UL. I liked the handle on that better than the St Croix, and I like the fact it was cheaper LOL. Paired it with a 1000 size Shimano Sedona, and since they didn't have either of the lines I wanted (Red Label FC, and 4lb Power Pro) I went with 4lb green Berkley Nanofil, and 4lb Stren fluorocast for leaders. Also picked up some chatter baits, SK swimbait jig heads, and VMC wacky jigs, and another jar of 1" Gulp! minnows.

Went to an outfitter and bought some soft plastics and a spinnerbait box. That should have been enough but I went to the annual sportsman's show later today (well, Friday) and bought some spinnerbaits and some odd jig heads the guy at the booth called "jig flies". Never seen them before so I figured I'd buy a couple and see how they pan out this summer. Web site for those jig flies is here if anyone is curious.

eBay. I agree on mag only brakes, but I can live with them. This one is a 5.4, I'll try it for deep cranks, I don't know if thats really it's strong suit, but I wasn't gonna pass at that price. I've also seen other Lews reels going cheap lately there.

It wwould do well with A rigs, big swim baits,... if i got one (which i didnt even NEED the one i just got) it would be a 7:1 for jigs and pitchin. Yours will do well for cranks, but as i get older and smarter ive found that anything im going to be making alot of long casts with needs centrifigul or dual brakes...it makes life so much easier and is not as finicky as mag brakes. But i have the reg speed spool reel with mag brakes and while it is a finicky, once you take the time and about a dozen casts and dial it in, its is awesome.
Clean and service it when you get it, the last several Lews reels i got, were over lubed and greased when i got them (new). Once i cleaned and relubed and greased them, i was able to get alot more distance and smoothness.

Today when I got home from work, there was a little packet sitting on the table with a B.A.S.S. patch, a couple stickers and a little tackle bag. I'm thinking the bag is just the right size to hold all my soft plastics. That would free up more room in my larger bag for more hard baits but then I'd have to carry 2 bags. I dunno. I'll have to think on it. Either way free stuff is always cool.

Nope, I like it, I like it better than any other fluoro I have ever used. I am using it in every size from 8-20lb, just as leader material, I use braid as mainline on all my rods. Last year I used a few sizes of it while using up my supply of Vanish and Trilene 100% fluoro. That fish in my avatar, a 6-10, dozens of 5+lb fish, and a handful of other 6's were caught last year using Red Label. Some in nasty/heavy cover with the big sticks, and it never let me down. For $12ish a spool, I can't think of any better bang for the buck in fluoro. I am sure Tatsu is better, I have tried Abrazx..........mehhh....I didn't find it any better for the extra cost over RL. Maybe if I was filling my reels up, and using fluoro as a main line I'd go with the higher priced stuff.

Wally World had Luck E Strike STX's on sale for $5 a pop, so I bought a few more of those. Work great in this area. Also ordered another Loomis NRX 873CRR. My blue one is not aging well so figured I'd give the greenie a try, hoping the glossier finish will resist the C-rig weight abuse better.

Got two Abu Vendetta Rods. 6'9" ML Spinning and one 7' M casting. A few weeks ago i got 3 Jackall Giron's for $3 each. 1 is a sinking, 2 are floating. I can't find anything anywhere about a floating Giron. They dont have the BBs in it that the sinking ones have. I tried one the other day. its wicked. It floats on its side just like a dead/dying baitfish. It walks the dog pretty rad too.

6'8" MH/Fast Shimano Clarus Spinning rod for skipping docks. I DID buy a new 6'3" M/XF St Croix eyecon spinning rod this winter for that purpose, but it snapped like a twig on the first fish I caught with it this year. No worries......I know St Croix will stand behind it, I have used there warranty service many time......( I am a rod killer), but I wanted a new rod NOW. LOL Besides, in the last 4 years, I have broken my dock skipping spinning rod every single year, time to try Shimano and there lifetime over the counter warranty. When I send the broken Eyecon back to Croix, I'll gold star/upgrade it to something else (if I like the Shimano for this application).

Not sure why the discount was being offered. Perhaps Wal-mart will not carry them in future. Nonetheless, be sure to check your local store for closeouts ... I was able to to get a some great backup baits at a very good price.

He must've been in the 30-40" range, I just threw out my remaining Berkley Vanish Floro because I used it as a leader and the knot slipped. That is it for me, can't handle it anymore. Biggest regret on paying for the crap. I have had no issues with P Line or Mono leaders ever. 2nd time for me the knot slipped, first time thought it was me, this time it can't be coincidence.

Ha! Everyone else says 'I bought some baits' or 'I got a new reel'. This guy says 'oh you know, picked up a boat the other day'. I think you win, draggin. Congrats on the new boat!

I bought 4 Bomber Square Bills on clearance at Sail and 4 XCalibur Lipless cranks. Bought them all for 27 bucks, were on clearance for 3 bucks a piece.

Local Wal-Mart had Abu Garcia Vendetta gen.1 rods on clearance for $30. I have been wanting a something a little shorter than my 7' Avid "in the cone" drop shot rod, it's not something I do often so for $30 ................why not. Now I will have to get an Abu spinning reel, my OCD will NOT let me slap one of my Shimano's on it. LOL

I was thinking of grabbing one too, local retail store has them on sale for 49 though. If it were 30 I probably would've jumped all over it. I probably will still buy one as I'm in the market for a dedicated spinnerbait rod. It's funny about your OCD. I refused to put my Shimanos on my lone Daiwa T Rod..lol
draggin reply :
thanks and that was my lure money for the year.

All the first generation Vendetta's they have left are marked down to $30. Selection is getting low though. The on I bought was the last 6'9" ML spinning rod, they still had a couple of 7' MH, and 6'6" M spinning rods, and a few 6'6", and 7' M casting rods.

Great price!!! I bought a hula popper a few minutes ago. I was using one Saturday and the bass were just killing it. Great old school top water lure.
I also bought a Booyah Poppin Pad Crasher and a Heddon Baby Lucky 13 (Red Head). Can you tell I like top water fishing?

Went out of town with the fiance. For some reason they carry blue craw and falcon craw rage chunks which are the two i use more than any. Christmas came early. Had a buy 3 get 1 free. I bought all the blue craw and 4 falcons.
Went to country kitchen because ours closed down and it was on the way home. Found a fly in my lettuce that thankfully wasnt on my spicy chicken sandwich. Our food wss free.

Stopped by a Dicks on the way back home from Oregon and picked up some Outlaw Baits Gitter Tubes on a mark down. The colors were actually good. Reg. 4.99 for 1.93, not bad. They had some Terminator spinnerbaits like A-Jay bought for 49 cents each. I bought all 17 of them. Same color too. Who'd a thunk it?
hooah212002 reply :
I finally upgraded my spinning gear (well, one for now):
- Pflueger President (Dicks currently has a trade in program so I traded my busted up spinning reel to knock $10 off. $50 President? Yes please.
- Refurbished 6'6" ML/F St. Croix Eyecon ECS66MLF ($40 all because they had to replace the tip)
- 6# Invizx
I just got the rod today and was only able to cast a couple, but it casts pretty nice, far and loads up like no rod I've ever had. I kept waiting for my bait to land, but it kept going. Not a lot of feel on a weightless worm that I could tell. But it was windy and I haven't gotten the Invizx spooled up yet. The President, though? WOW. I can see why they are so highly recommended.
Last week I got my order from BPS:
- Pro Qualifier
- 7' MH Vendetta (I wanted a Carbonlite, but they are backordered until the middle of June)
- 12# Yo-Zuri
Zach P reply :
