Plano Report
Plano EDGE Line Management Box
Line spooling just became a little bit easier with the new Plano EDGE Line Management Box.
The Plano EDGE Line Management Box is a new premium line management system that protects lines and allows anglers spool up quickly anywhere with the same easy-to- transport system.
The EDGE Line Management System protects braids, monofilament, fluorocarbon and co-polymer lines from damage in a travel-friendly design that is at home on the water or the road. The spacious, waterproof 3700 size container holds up to 12 300-yard filler spools of line and features a built-in arbor that allows each spool to spin independently for added efficiency. Eight included tension bands keep everything under wraps, so anglers aren’t dealing with unruly spools when the time comes to re-rig, and a one- handed top latch and built-in large grab handles make quick spooling reels a breeze. A Dri-Loc O-ring seal keeps water out when the box is closed and the WaterWick divider with reusable moisture-wicking packet helps to keep line dry.
Other features include Rustrictor technology for rust-preventative protection, EZ Label system for quick identification of contents, DuraView crystal-clear polycarbonate lid and One-handed latch design.
Suggested retail is $49.99.

Z-Man Report
Z-Man SMH Jighead
Z-Man’s New SMH WormZ & SMH Jighead offers a durable, high-floating and durable finesse-style worm that provides more natural action than standard plastic rigs and a jighead that works well in all types of cover.
The Z-Man SMH WormZ and SMH Jighead debuted at last week’s 2022 Bassmaster Classic Expo.
Z-Man’s New SMH WormZThe SMH WormZ has a substantial but slender head and torso, shaped for easy hook penetration, then slims down to a wispy-thin midsection that helps activate the worm’s bulbous, football shaped tail. It can be Texas rigged, fished wacky style, drop-shotted or Carolina rigged.
At 6.5-inches in length, the ultra-lively SMH WormZ presents bass with a natural, unassuming target. Imbued with a 15-percent salt solution, the SMH WormZ offers optimal casting weight, and enhanced taste and texture to assure bass bite and hold on tight.
