Insane Underwater Footage

by Leave a Comment

Check out this Insane underwater footage video by TacticalBassin. This video will get you pumped up and make you want to drop everything and go fishing. The jig footage really gets me because now I see how easy it is not to feel a jig bite. The bass inhales the jig and spits it out and you don’t even know they did it. The whopper plopper footage is off the hook.… ...Read More

Changing Lower Unit Gear Lube

by Leave a Comment

TinBoats member captain belly has a great video on YouTube for changing lower unit gear lube. He posted it in our forum, but I thought this one is worthy of a post on the homepage. I have never done it myself, but after watching this video, it does not seem that hard at all. If it can save you a few bucks and your handy, then why not, right? Changing Lower Unit Gear Lube… ...Read More

Environmental Stewardship, you can do better!

by 1 Comment

Environmental stewardship needs to become a focal point in the fishing industry. I have a little bit of a bone to pick with some bait companies that are not being good stewards of our environment. I feel it’s their responsibility to lead by example as millions of customers buy their products.  Now, I’m going to come right out and say I’m not… ...Read More

Megabass Vision 110 R+3

by 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

by 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

by 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

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

RA Baits

by 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

by 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

by 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
