The Classic Outdoor Expo (I think that’s its name) is THE place to be if you’re in the bassin’ biz, and there’s always a few new products to learn about there. Or here, since I am here. Question is whether said products will stand the test of time.
One is Humminbird’s new 360 Imaging technology. Holy macks, that looks cool. High-tech tools like that, BassGold and a few other things really make bass fishin’ great. Always something new and hopefully helpful coming along…

…which brings me to the next thang, a new company that has a knotless hook. Yep, a knotless hook. Developed by a non-fisherman from Ohio while working on stuff for eye surgery, according to this article.
Does this mean the end of the palomar? Too soon to tell, but I’ll be over at the Expo checkin’ it out for sure today. Hopefully today, anyway….

Wow! That 360 sonar looks so cool! The hook on the other hand, I can live without.
I’ve never said, “Man, I wish I didn’t have to tie my hook on using a knot!” Never. I’m concerned with hook sharpness, durability of the point, and that it is the optimal size and shape for what I need.
