Best new products for you this year

[carolina-rig-01]

With all the talk about Icast I got to wondering. What new products did you start using this year that you were really happy with? They don't have to be new products, only new to you. So far this year the best money I have spent has been my Costa Del Mar Man-O Wars with the 580 glass lenses. I was really worried that the glass lenses would be too heavy but I can't believe how light they are. These glasses are way better than any Oakleys I have ever owned and Britney likes them so much she is looking for a frame style that she likes so she can order some. I really like the side shields that snap on and off, they block out all the light from the corners of the frames when fishing but you can pop them off and they look great to wear out on the town.

Also my Mustan Inflatable life jacket with H.I.T. was well worth the money. I always wear a life jacket when my boat is on plane and this thing is so lightweight and comfortable that I almost forget I am wearing it.

The Havoc Pitboss is a bait that I started using this year that I have been really impressed with. It's great for flipping, carolina rigging, texas rigging, and jig trailers. They are a great value too considering they are fairly cheap.

Probably the one product that made my year so good to this point is the KVD 1.5. This bait has bailed my butt out of the fire several times this year. It has put some big fish in the boat for me as well as a lot of fish.

Lastly the KVD Triple Grips. I have been using Triple Grips for a long time and I love them. But just when you thought they couldn't get any better, KVD changes them lol. Now they are a little heavier which I love because the regular ones were prone to bending too easy. They also have a really short shank so you can go up one size when replacing hooks and this means a lot less fish lost.
