Megabass Vision 110 R+3

January 30, 2021 by jim Leave a Comment

I had no idea that there was such a thing as a Megabass Vision 110 R+3. My awesome wife surprised me with two of them. She knew I was on the hunt for another Megabass Vision 110 R+2 for my trip to Mexico, but this is just plain awesome. Does anyone else have this lure? Megabass Vision 110 R+3 What’s going on over here? The packaging says that this lure will dive max… ...Read More

Romoss Sense 8 Review

January 21, 2021 by jim Leave a Comment

It’s not too often I endorse a product, but one I will stand behind is the Romoss Sense 8 power bank. If you’re looking for a portable power bank charger to charge your electronics, this is the one to buy. The Romoss Sense 8 will charge your phone and most electronics multiple times on a single charge. The biggest reason I bought this charger is that it can power my… ...Read More

Gator Trax Strike Series On The Water

January 15, 2021 by jim Leave a Comment

If you’re in the market for a high-performance boat, check out this Gator Trax Strike series on the water video. We talked about the Strike series in a previous post, but that one was mostly just a walk-thru video. This video actually shows a Strike Series boat on the water and a 300hp motor powers it. This boat is not everyone’s cup of tea, I get it. If… ...Read More

Fishing Blade Baits

January 12, 2021 by jim Leave a Comment

What’s with all the new posts online about fishing with blade baits? I was just given my first one this past Christmas from my mother-in-law. Perfect timing right? Where have I been? To be honest, I always associated fishing blade baits the same as fishing a lipless crankbait. Fishing lipless crankbaits is something I dread, I’m just not a fan of… ...Read More

RA Baits

January 7, 2021 by jim Leave a Comment

One of my new goto little bait makers RA Baits has built a shopping website. Now instead of trying to contact them over a social media platform, you can buy directly from their website. What’s cool is that you have the option of standard colors or custom colors with no additional charge. That’s what I’m talking about. The website is simple to… ...Read More

Shimano Vanford

January 4, 2021 by jim Leave a Comment

I have had the itch to buy a new spinning reel and decided to buy a Shimano Vanford. I have been a big fan of the Shimano Stradics for years so going with the Vanford was a no-brainer. This is one sexy reel and I am a huge fan of the color scheme. Shimano Vanford VFC3000XGF What’s not to like about this spinning reel? It has 20LBs of Max Drag and weighs in at a respectable… ...Read More

Minn Kota Raptor

January 3, 2021 by jim Leave a Comment

Have you seen or read about the new Minn Kota Raptor? For some reason it looks awfully familiar, like I have seen this before in the past. It’s sort of like a surface tablet and an iPad. They look the same, act the same, both have pluses and minuses, but the reality is that one is late to the game. They do say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Is this the case… ...Read More

Shimano Scorpion MGL

January 2, 2021 by jim 3 Comments

I will start out by saying I love this Shimano Scorpion MGL reel. I’ve been a big fan of the Shimano Scorpion series of reels ever since I purchased one back in 1999. I’m not a Shimano fanboy, but I tend to gravitate towards the stuff that’s reliable and just plain works consistently. There’s nothing fancy about these reels, but I will take reliability over bells… ...Read More

Megabass Vision 110+2

January 1, 2021 by jim Leave a Comment

The Megabass Vision 110 is arguably the best jerkbait on the market today. I was stoked to receive one of these as a gift this Christmas. It will be a perfect addition to my arsenal for my trip to Mexico. Last year I heard one of the guides talking to a fellow angler about how this lure is a secret producer down at Lake Baccarac. To be clear, this was a gift. I have a strict… ...Read More
