So as i was walking out of walmart, i thought aww why not browse the fishing isle. So make the turn, and here's this employee retagging all the soft plastics. Zoom Trick worms went from 3.77 to almost $8.00. My PTSD kicked in and I grabbed 2 cans of r134, and a box of shotgun shells that I didnt need but hell they will be worth twice that when I do!

I was at Sheels last weekend and saw they had Bubblegum and methiolate trick worms ( and a few other colors) for $6.99. The rest of them were $5.99. Luckily I have enough to last several lifetimes!

Interesting......I fish with the trick worms as well as other zoom products. I started laughing when I read this because it made me think of the ProStaffer video on You Tube. You guys remember that one?

Again LET'S GO BRANDON!!!- You should see the price of the Strike King Shadalicious. Last time I bought them they were around $6-$7. Now they are about $12.

I know several people that own tackle shops. They say their wholesale 2022 price for Zoom is higher than they were paying for stuff last year. Zoom did honor the old price on their back orders but as the year progresses everyone will be about double of last years prices.

Zoom wholesale prices went up 20% across the board last year..
We'll see what the near future brings.. There will be damn few zoom products selling under $5 anymore..
