New stuff to try in 2026

[Gill-T]

The offseason is for dreaming. Always looking for a better mousetrap. This year a few items caught my eye. Iron Decoy came out with a wobbler/spoon concept bait that cabelas is carrying. They were also at the Niagara show this week. I reimagined these without the trailing bead chain- worm holder hook for walleye and a small Siawash to carry an emerald shiner for coho. The second bait shown is called the Kraken by character lures which is a spin off from the old tadpoly lure of yesteryear. I will try these as a worm harness instead of a spinner blade.  Last but not least are VMC sniper swivel which will take the place pinching split shot onto my spring brown trout weight rods.
