Title: HELP!!! It's getting worse! Ordered new crappie spoons, among other things.
Post by: slabslayer on January 04, 2017, 12:50:18 PM
The stir craziness is getting worse!!  At 3 in the morning I was up ordering crappie spoons online.  I ordered 50 different spoons from 3 different websites.  I've also watched Grumpy Old Men 3 times in 5 days and went as far as ordering a green hornet look alike pole that should come today!  I have a serious problem!!!!
I got 2 of each color Clam Speed Spoon, 2 of each color of the 3 smallest sizes of Williams Wabler, and 2 of each color of the crappie size Freedom Tackle Minnow Spoons!!

Don't worry about it slab. Embrace the madness. The important thing is that when you need that stuff (and someday you will) you will have it. Don't worry about what your wife friends coworkers parents or anybody else says. YOU CAN NEVER HAVE TOO MUCH FISHING GEAR!  I'm even worse cause I buy like 5 of everything because it seems like if something works great they will stop making it. But I almost always have the lure they are biting on ;D And if I don't I'll go get 5 of them the next day. Lol

I start buying 2 of something to start. If it works good, I will buy at least 5 more.

That's me anymore. A few years back, I had only one of a purple spoon and the crappies were tearing it up. I hung it on a brush pile and broke it off and had nothing else purple that was close except for a couple micro plastics.  After I lost that spoon my catch rate dropped over 50%. I never buy 1 of anything anymore!  Taught me a good lesson. Now there's going to be a run on purple spoons.........

I don't know I'm a real redneck. I first got a hard take down shotgun case but didn't like the way it was working out so it's in the closet. I plan on making a soft case into a solid.

If you asked my wife, she'd say I am too. You should see my truck. I'll try to post a pic of it tomorrow.

I will have to see you up that way and compare. My 99 GMC 1500 couldn't haul enough junk so I did some work on the rear springs. The last load I hauled in was 3318 lbs. with cruise set on 70mph on the highway. It's a short bed truck with camouflage on the sides and ducks on the back glass. My 2010 Chevrolet Crewcab is a single seat truck the rest is fishing equipment. It's been called everything from gander to cabelas.

Yes, we spent time loading the boat today. He was sitting in the seat for a while.
My truck is a lifted 06 F350 service truck with 2 IFO stickers on the bumper, a Jon boat strapped to the top, and a duck decoy tie wired to the ladder rack. I'll post a pic tomorrow when it's light out.
