  2. Still on that grind since my last post and it has been awesome. The snapper is just a fish magnet at my spot. At least 20 ppl had to have beaten up my money spot throughout the day but literally first cast in and a 4.5 smashes it literally 5 minutes before closing. First cast bite in this pressured spot has happened multiples times. It’s literally a magic bait lol. Mr. Chavez really does make hammers. He’s not lying. Thanks SU follow me on ig at @snackslays always down to talk fishing

    I remember the good old days when SU had a rule up in the BM that you don't come into someone's sales post and knock his prices; if you didn't like the price you just moved on with your life. Most people didn't do it anyway, just looks tacky. They should bring that rule back.

    You guys worrying about how much dudes buy and sell baits for must lose your minds seeing the women some dudes settle for. Y'all chiming in on that, too? FFS, just move on if you don't like it. Or message Mike, because those plastic baits don't cost him $125 to pour. In the end, we are all the problem, because we are the market. Be happy we have so many options instead of complaining about the ones you're not participating in.

  7. Caught this fish deadsticking a gantarel jr at a pressured neighborhood pond. I had it tuned to suspend and this fish studied it for a good 5 seconds before barely kissing it. It wasn’t much but enough to get a hook.

    Maybe because you’re in another post telling the guy you’ll give him 300 for one?

    Sister’s 1st fish

    Sister got her first bass/swimbait fish. She said she wanted to catch a fish and measure it. First trip she didn’t get one but yesterday she got a good one at least for here in Wa. Awesome to see her get a fish and a great memory. She said “ My legs are shaking”

    Pink Swimbaits?

    Pink is a dank color. The debate will never truly be settled but “matching the hatch” is not necessarily required all the time. Realistically none of these baits are natural enough to actually imitate life, most of my favorite Swimbaits are the ones that look more like lures than fish tbh, it’s more triggering instinctual responses in the fish imo. Trout is usually what peoples go to “hatch” comparison for pink but I just think it’s a great color in both clear and stained water. I caught my first bass over 7# on the 250 below and if we’re not just talking big baits my favorite conventional lure is a 2.8 pink magic keitech impact fat on a ball head lol

  14. Hello SU, I just posted the following under several baits sold posts by the member in the subject title: ————————- Hello SU, I hate to do this but I am looking to the folks that bought from this seller recently. I responded to Bnasty via this posting and ended up paying for a KGB Legend (two Friday's ago 5/12) as he was selling several baits. I gave him a few days before following up to see when he planned to ship the baits (several follows ups after as well). Before I provide additional details did anyone who also purchased from him around the same time receive tracking or their baits? Or does anyone know him who could possibly reach out to him for a status? feel free to PM me if you have questions. Appreciate everyones time. Tom —————————— All that said, a few members have already reached out saying they are in the same situation. Does anyone know this guy? If so, could you reach out to him for a status. Things happen in life and that is understandable but selling several baits and ghosting people is not. Before I proceed to the moderators/seller warnings, I want to give the guy a chance to make it right. I appreciate it SU! Tom

  15. Thanks bud me too. If only I new Mike was dropping more since lol Could have saved myself the headache. I’ve bought and received more baits then I should admit to since that day and he only lives 3hrs from here (me) It should have arrived if it was ever actually dropped off… meanwhile I got douchebags tripping I want baits shipped insured. SMDH. (Palm face emoji)

    I don’t care if someone flips a bait, I’m just happy when they put a price. Then I know right out the gate if it’s time to move on.

  18. BigBait, it's done. Move on. Tpreston, I did what I stated and left you a voice message because you didn't answer. It's absolutely understandable to be skeptical, but that's how I'm doing it. Someone else took the risk and that's it.

  19. As explained earlier….that’s just one transaction. The “threshold” is $600 via g&s TOTAL. That’s the entire year. 99% of people using this site frequently are gonna sell more than that in a year. I don’t blame the guy. I don’t accept g&s from anyone, ever. Or else I refund them and make them resend it. Further, Isaac has been a member here for 6 years. I don’t he’s been laying a 6 year long trap to try and scam a few hundred bucks.

  20. As soon as you got his paypal info you should have paid...it sounds like you delayed doing so by asking for conditions (insurance or some other concern) and someone else swooped in and got it. I always pay asap .

    That’s a personal choice and personal opinion. Not crapping on this guy at all. If people wanna pay that much over retail then let them do it. I just don’t like the flipping mentality personally. You can’t say that people aren’t out there buying their limit knowing they have no intention to use them. I don’t think it’s a good thing for the community but scalpers are gonna scalp regardless. I remember when people scalped toilet paper during the beginning of the pandemic. But the only way to stop it is to get people to stop paying mark ups for stuff that’s gonna get dropped again sooner or later. Again though, not saying this guys a scalper. If you sold them for that much then that’s great for you

  31. For community record… I just got assed out on this on a misunderstanding and although I was probably first in line, had an existing rapport and would have matched the price it ultimately went for… a deal was struck and a sale was made & I “lost the bait” and didn’t lose my ish. Respect and communication and code of conduct go a long way and resonate universally. Hope the bait gets fished. Cheers Brad thanks for the opportunity we’re golden.

  37. cool idea, but for small states like all of us in new england, it would be more spot burning than anything, unless you got a lake like "johnstons pond" which is the pond that abuts the city dump, always tell everyone thats where i caught fish

    I had a gentleman reach out from my post and sold me his one & only for retail whom was actually a local cat and I recently befriended… I bring this up to say retail after taxes & shipping was $147 for 1, which if I’m mathing correctly is $294 for 2… So those numbers cited were correct… and at $220 per via aftermarket is about a $60 mark up after insured shipping… ($73 before) Which isn’t ideal but not terribly out of pocket either all things considered… it is what it is. And for the record this dude in particular to whom this post belongs, wasn’t intending to sell but got in a pinch as we all do. $200+ for a Softbait is a psychological adjustment for sure, people felt like someone pissed in their entitled Cheerios @ retail… These listing prices are mild compared to the ish behind the scenes that certainly doesn’t help. I will say though that I’m grateful for another great product and option to add to my arsenal & as a dude from humble means… feeling confident having options & getting bit is priceless. The last thing I will care about when I feel that thunk or thump or bump lol is the price tag. Softbaits aren’t forever and neither is life… Hard pill to swallow or not sometimes you just gotta send it:)

    Pink Swimbaits?

    Pinks stays in my rotation for the past 3 years now. Had some of my better bites on pink baits. I got a pink 5” Stubby TT that does work. This double rad in pink is hands down my fav bait.

  45. We could’ve solidify this deal 45 minutes ago, and it’s not like you’re waiting on me I was waiting on you… You got weird ever since I asked for your address to make a mock label to insure I sent the appropriate amount to cover the bait being fully insured

    You have a pretty unique situation that most users don’t find themselves in. If anyone else took 300 they would be doubling their investment at minimum. I also think that mike was addressing the people that make molds of his bait to pour their own in that context but I’m sure as long as they still sell out instantly his feelings aren’t hurt. Either way I feel like there’s people that treat SU as a place where there’s profit to be made and in my opinion it shouldn’t be that way. Not to mention the scammers that it attracts when they see what people are willing to pay over retail these days. Thats my thoughts though. I understand why people would want to flip. Just not something I support
