      You clearly haven't ever fished a large swimbait, @TylersReelFishing. So don't comment. I mainly throw swimbaits, I enjoy realistic the approach and the ...more ginormous hits I get when fishing swimbaits.

      That's $300?! Unless you catch 10 pounders with it daily there is no way I would spend money on that. You can catch probably more fish with a 3$ pack of worms.

      @RyanEllis where did you get that one? I'm guessing swimbait underground

      I just think they're crazy expensive but if you can afford it and catch fish, go ape
