Dave I can't even imagine how much you spend in a year for your swimbait addiction?

Where do you find this stuff?

some nice lookin' baits ....the attention to detail is almost second to none compared to lures made in the US except for a few (that are still being painted overseas :lol:)

that OSA 80 is sharp as well as the Jackall big pencil ala Monster Jack...you'll be sure to be showin' them fish a different look! let us know how they work out!
