Summer Gear Review! Top Rods, Baits, Tackle, ICAST 2022 New Releases!

We had a blast at ICAST checking out all the new gear! From big swimbaits to tiny micro baits, there were a ton of of exciting new baits released at the show! We ourselves launched 3 new bait projects and have been busy fishing and experimenting with all kinds of new gear after the show! Today we're taking an in-depth look at the "best of the best" that really stood out to us after listening to what the brands had to say, then actually going out on the water and spending time with the gear. 

Its easy to get caught up in the hype when you're at ICAST. Even watching the coverage from home can be dangerous to your wallet. In reality, you really don't know what you're getting until someone puts time on the water with the gear and cuts through the hype. We've been hard at work doing exactly that, and can't wait to show you some of this gear! 

From rods and reels, to swimbaits and topwater, we've been experimenting with as much gear as possible! Below you'll find links to each item discussed in the video.
