Evergreen SB-125

by Leave a Comment

Like I honestly needed to buy an Evergreen SB-125. I have enough lures and baits to open my own store, but because I’m a sucker, I ended up buying two of these baits, because God forbid I miss out on the biggest bass of my life. There’s only one person to blame for this and it’s Bill Quatrucci, owner of BiCO Jigs. We’re heading down to Mexico, and Bill posts… ...Read More

Megabass Big Gabot

I did it, I bought a Megabass Big Gabot hollow-bodied frog. As a matter of fact, I purchased two of them. In my pursuit of the best hollow-bodied frog, I came across the Megabass Gabot Hollow bodied frog while surfing on Amazon. Surprisingly I was able to pick them up for $16.57 with free shipping. I have a rule I’ve been following for a while now, I will not spend… ...Read More

Boing Lures Topwater Baits

by Leave a Comment

I did it, I picked a couple of Boing Lures topwater baits. My sick obsession with fishing topwater baits has me on the search for perfection. Normally I am a topwater popper kind of guy. My go-to lure is a Lobina Rio Rico. This time I was in search of a walk-the-dog style bait, and I came across Boing Lures on the Tackle Warehouse website. Boing Topwater Lures A quick… ...Read More

Oh man, LunkerHunt is coming out with a new soft body bait called the LunkerHunt Prop Frog and I feel as though it will be my go to bait when the topwater bite is on. I am a big fan of the LunkerHunt frog. This new prop frog will have rotating feet that remind me of propellers.

Rebel Frog-R

by Leave a Comment

Leave it to Rebel to come out with a new frog  this year called the Rebel Frog-R. There is something to be said about fishing topwater frogs, and one that cost under $5 is awesome in my opinion. From what I have read, this lure has spook type side to side action if you work the rod tip. I am looking forward to fishing this lure. These lures are 2 inches long and weigh 3/8oz.… ...Read More

Evolve Original Menace Mander

by Leave a Comment

I am a sucker when it comes to trying new baits. We all are, who are you kidding? The Original Menace Mander is one sick looking bait. I bet when the topwater bite is on this lure will be off the charts. The price point is $22.99 but according to the folks at Evolve their products are hand-molded and individually detailed. They also use dura-resin and and not pressed… ...Read More
