Anyone else subscribed to this? I heard about this recently in a youtube fishing channel and it got my interest. The channel had a public $10 promo code so I thought I'd try it out and share what I received.

Basically you can pick the "regular" or "pro" box and they contain some random fishing tackle for a specific species of your choice. Pro box contains more stuff and is more expensive. Then you pick your plan. There's a 1, 3, 6 or 12 month plans and you pay up front for all the month's boxes.

I opted for the 3month regular box plan(walleye) to see what it's all about. Came to $43.50USD subtract the promo discount(promo code is GOOGAN) so $33.50usd. Shipping is free even to Canada.

Not trying to advertise for this company, just thought it's a neat idea and some might be interested. Anyhow here is what I got in February's box(I get 2 more. One for March and April)

Thanks for sharing. I've see the promo for it but thought oh sure they will send you a bunch of discontinued junk and smile while they head to the bank. It would be awesome if you come back to this same thread each time you get a shipment and post the pictures. We can then figure out the total value at the end of it all and see if it's worth it.

Yes I have subscribed to this over the years , and I found its worth it . U definitely get your money back in lures . I usually opt for the "Pro" box as u get a few more items .. It's good in the sense that it gives me lures to try that I'd never even think to rig up ...
P.s my wife usually gets me a subscription for my birthday :D lol

Tempting but I have too many lures I never or rarely use, so don't need to add more!

Update on the box thing. Box #2 of 3

A few interesting pieces there.
-knock-off Jiggin' Rap?
-1/2 oz blade bait with a spinner blade tail
-trolling rig
-soft plastic grubs
-fin-tech "nuckle ball" jigs

The nuckle ball jigs look the most interesting to me with the flashing spoon at the head, and can be rigged weedless or basic vertical w/ exposed hook.

Puts me at $47.10 worth of tackle (according to them)

Thanks! Always thought chatter baits were just anything with rattle bb's in them. Shows how much I know :oops:
