UrbEx Inland Empire and Fishing

These ponds looked fantastic, but I couldn't get a bite in them at all. I think they are only seasonal, holding water after a good rain or two. The ruined buildings in the region were interesting though!

Today's Update (Jun. 5) - Zip Baits ZBL System Minnow 139F

Zip Baits ZBL System Minnow 139F - #703 Red Gold and #758 CG Yellow

2 of my favorite colors of ZBL System Minnow 139F are in stock in small units. Red Gold color is always in my go-to-box, and choose it in low light condition or stain-muddy water. Gold reflects more lively and more effectively than silver does in such condition. CG Yellow is a kind of my standard color. I choose it as other standard patterns as sardine and mullet pattern. Of course I trust sardine and mullet pattern, but sometimes I feel like casting CG Yellow as standard.

This time, only a few amount is in stock. If you are curious, please hurry!!
