Northland Tackle advertised the Forage Minnow Dart and is on their site, but not available to purchase. Makes zero sense. Anyone have, used, purchased and from where.?

Lincoln, kinda...
Can't say I've run across them, but if you are looking for a vertical jigging option that will swim 3-5 ft out away from the hole while jigging, try these from Rapala:

They're pretty fun to watch on the Livescope. I first ran across them about 6 years ago when my cousin was using them in the early spring on the river in Bismarck. They work pretty well in the right environment.

Yep used them In the past. A buddy and I actually took 2nd place in a Tournament and all fish we caught came on that jig.

And the older you get, the worse your vision becomes inevitably, they are a real finger piercing son of a bitch.

Looks like it came out in 2017 and hasn't been available for a while.

Have learned over the years to buy a pile if there's something I really like because it will eventually go away or get way more expensive.

Untrue unless you're talking about cataracts not ready for surgery or you develop some other medical issue. Beyond that, your correction becomes more complex as most end up needing correction for near and far, and you probably need more light as your pupils become smaller with age, but, your vision doesn't just:

"Get worse with age"

Do not accept that answer.

Also, you can have 20/10 vision and bright sunlight and those raps will unexpectedly poke your fingers like they're haunted.

I once could spot a gnat on a horses ass from a quarter mile. I now need cheaters just to read the cereal box.
As I aged my sight worsened. But I look like an absolute stud with glasses on.

Your vision didn't worsen, your correction needs became more complex. There's a BIG difference.
