    Default I hit the jackpot today


    I had to work today so when I got off I hit my local Academy store before heading home. Found some nylon rod socks for .48 and a minnow seine net for $5. I thought it was a pretty good score. I then went back to the rear of the store and saw some Bandit crankbaits on marked down to $1.98. I ran them thru the scanners like I always due the rang up .98. I grab the 18 they had in stock and walked out the store with a big smile. I now have to learn how to pull cranks.

    Yes sir, a little dumb luck don’t hurt, good score. Pulling is easier than you think. To start, use what rods you have and try a speed just over 1.0 to 1.5 and look for bait balls on the graph. Fish usually aren’t far away. Good luck and have fun. Oh yeah, solid black and solid pink. Always.
