MCTFisher9120 Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Was browsing/getting ready to make a purchase today on Cabela's web site(US) and well those Tro Kar hooks Dave was talking about are on sale.

MTBF didn't you post yesterday about having a lot of useless tackle? don't you see a pattern here? haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCTFisher9120 Posted August 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 didn't you post yesterday about having a lot of useless tackle? don't you see a pattern here? haha You got a point. Looking more at upgrade spinning tackle and well terminal tackle like hooks and speciality jigs. You know, stuff that isn't needed. Would still sell all of my gear in a heart beat. for a couple hundred. Would love the opportunity of a fresh start as I can't throw stuff away or give it away for free.

Would love the opportunity of a fresh start as I can't throw stuff away or give it away for free. I remember vividly what I was like at your age: Almost all birthday and Christmas presents were of the fishing variety. Any money that I did manage to hoard, I'd spend days pouring over various fishing catalogues agonizing over what to spend it on. I know how much 200 bucks is to a young guy like yourself, but the reality is it's a drop in the bucket. Said it yesterday already, but hold onto your stuff and build on it. If you're just dying to buy some gear and money is tight, do what I did when I was in my early teens, get a part time job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richyb Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 They look like a waste of money to me. Just another hook but this one happens to have your idol advertising for them. I would spend my money other ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ThisPlaceSucks Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 there is always going to be "the next advancement in" some element of fishing. when i was in my teens i spent countless dollars buying whatever the rage of the season was and ended up with a box full of expensive crap... when it comes to terminal tackle, i would definitely buy quality gear, but do so wisely... don't buy red wolf or junk like that, but fishing like anything else is full of marketing gimmicks! i think a sharper skill set will catch more fish than "the sharpest hook"... flying lure anyone? how about a banjo minnow?

richyb Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 flying lure anyone? how about a banjo minnow? HEY !!!! the flying lure landed me my biggest largemouth and a couple of pike. Funny thing is it only worked for that one day lol. havent got a fish on them since. Must have been those stupid sudbury area fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jds63 Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 ahh yes I agree ... when I was a young whipper snapper ... I spent my hard earned money on all those gimicky lures as well, still got em though .... gotta admit that banjo minnow worked , but so did a hook and a worm ...LOL Now i have setup a separate tackle box for my son with all those lures ... LOL , he doesn't mind using them remember "lures are designed to catch fisherman first" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
