Nice little restock on the all new Shimano North America Fishing Poison Glorious. These rods have been the hottest high-end rod for us since they first started trickling in from ICAST.

This is our first batch of some of the unique spinning rod models, as well as the 7'9" Swimbait rod.

We were able to get our hands on some JDM Megabass frogs, the Gabarin Jr. These frogs spit and walk like crazy.......a really nice compact size and 1/2oz weight so casting distance is exceptional.

It's what so many of you have been waiting for! The all new 2026 Megabass Levante is now available for pre-order. We have confirmed a shipment of rods will be heading to us early-October.

These rods will be a limited allocation on the initial launch. Since the new Levante info leaked this Spring, the #1 rod question we've been asked is "When are the new Levante rods coming out?" We are finally just a couple weeks away from having them in hand. What Megabass has done with these rods is nothing short of incredible. The fact they left them at the $199.99 price point is a huge statement in today's world of wild price increases. Grab yours before the pre-order slots are all filled:

We are extremely excited to receive our first batch of the brand new Shimano North America Fishing Miravel A reels. This shipment contained only the 3000 size and is available in very limited quantities.

This was one of the products we were most excited about after attending ICAST this summer. The build quality and feel of this reel is crazy for right around $150 price point. On top of that, they look absolutely stunning! We do expect availability to be very limited throughout the rest of 2026 on these reels.
