Nako Tungsten weights

by

I took the plunge and ordered some Nako Tungsten Weights. The ad came across my Facebook feed and like a typical fisherman, I bit. I’m always on the lookout for cheap tungsten weights. There are certain things I hate spending money on, and tungsten fishing weights are one of them. I get the whole tungsten vs. lead debate, so I just suck it up and pay for tungsten.… ...Read More

Buzbe Tackle Box Review

by Leave a Comment

This is going to be my initial Buzbe tackle box review as they were just dropped off by trusty FedEx. Upon opening the box, I got a feeling that I was dealing with a high-quality product and I soon found out I was correct. The schtick with this tackle box system is that the bins can be customized to how the user sees fit. Yes, it works as advertised. The bins fit like Legos… ...Read More

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.

Fishing Blade Baits

by 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

Shimano Scorpion MGL

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
