It's a no brainer why I'm broke. I stopped in at Gander Mountain tonight for a spool of line, swivels, and glass beads. I left with those plus a landing net, and 4 crankbaits. I could use the net but surely I could live without the Little Johns. :o

Haha, Well I just got the "you spend too much money on fishing" lecture from the fiancee.
I am down to my last trigger x flappin craw... and those things are my Bass crack (seriously... I pond fish almost exclusively and have pulled out a 3lber and one over 2lbs within the last 5 days since getting them. I probably have averaged well over a pound per bass)
Bass Pro doesnt have them yet so I was forced to order them online from Cabelas. I ordered 6 "6 packs" to make sure I had plenty to use. I may never use a senko or another plastic again.
Im also going out on deam lake this weekend and so I am getting a couple more rattles, bullet sinkers, and hooks. Probably also get a bag to chigger craws to hold me over till my Bass crack gets here.
Gander and dicks both carry trigger X

She should'nt treat you like that until after you are married!!!!
AHHAHA I spent my fair share this past weekend too!
You cant just go there and get 1 thing. If its even a thought in your mind that you want to look at something else or possibly get a few extra of this. IT WILL HAPPEN. I went to WM last night to get an anchor. Well that ended up costing 20.00 more then what I had bargained for. UHHH.
:D

Dicks here in Evansville does.
Last time I went to BP I had no intentions of spending anywhere near what I dropped. My wife had an absolute COW after I told her the bill came to a little over $200 and that's not including the ride for 2 of us in the nascar simulators and food at Hooters for 4 of us after finishing at BP. :D
I usually dont spend over 100 in a visit anymore unless I get something big. By that I mean a rod or reel or something like that.
I really dont experiment as much as I use too. I stick to craw plastics and natural/bright red rattles and cranks.
I never use spinners, buzz, or swimbaits.
