I need to put a question out there and I know I'm gonna get a lot of different answers but here goes...

I am looking for a place to buy ALL my catfishing terminal tackle. Right now I buy some from Bottom Dwellers, Some from Whisker Seeker, Some from Amazon, etc. Maybe I'm being too picky but I buy floats from Bottom Dwellers because I can get them in packs of 100. I've started buying triple threat hooks from whisker seeker because the team catfish hooks are never in stock. I use a lot of no roll weights Last batch I bought was from Dales Tackle. It seems I can't find everything in one place. It also seems like everybody has a different idea on size. I have 2/0 swivels from Team Catfish and from Dales Tackle and they are NOT the same size. I have 5/0 and 8/0 hooks from two places that are exactly the same size. I know there is a place out there where I can find what I need in stock, in the right quantities and without breaking the bank. And, I know you guys will help me out!

Scheels in the colony stocks Whisker Seeker. As well as a few others. If you haven't been it's a must.

Gotta go where they have your gear. I use Whisker Seeker for hooks, rattles, floats, rods, and a ton of other products I use. Their gear is expensive but If you buy a lot like I do then contact them before your purchase. You can get bulk or case pricing if you ask and I make one big order every year which saves me a ton of money on their gear. Catfish Connection for Abu and TEKOTA reels as they are the cheapest I’ve found. Bottom dwellers I used to get my planer boards but now I get em from Burning Drag. I get all my drift sinkers from MT pockets from the TFF and he is the cheapest by far. I get my sinker slides, sinker bumpers, Rosco swivels, bait knives, landing net, and cast nets off Amazon. The reason I use so many different suppliers is because there isn’t a one stop shop for the things I prefer and over the years Ive grown accustomed and confident to certain gear. Some of these suppliers I use because of price and others I use because that’s the only place to get a certain product.

I buy most of mine from Whisker Seeker. Little pricey, but always blazing fast to my door, plus I love their hooks. I make my own drifting sinkers, using Justin from Kayak Catfish's method. They're 30 inches long, but they work better than any drift sinker I've ever bought.
