on a wooden needle!!:wiggle:
It was sweet!!!
I have been a diehard eelmen for the last 5 years, monday night I fished with my girlfriend and decided to try a lonely angler blurple needle that I picked up at the RISSA show. I had fished it a few nights with no luck. monday night it outfished her eel for the first 20 minutes or so. I took a bass of about 30 inches and another just shy of 20 lbs or so.
My girl took a nice 18 lber, her first and biggest of the year on an eel, and the action slowed on the plug so i went back to my trusty snake.
It was pretty sweet to feel the take of a fish on the surface wood and then to slide a decent bass onto the rocks with a big ol needle sticking out of its mouth.
heres to you plug fishermen:cheers:
I see why the love to fish with big wood. It will be in my arsenal more, but I still love the wiggly's.
:bl:

Wood does feel oh so good...

Thats what i'm worried about!!:think:
I had to replace 3 guides on one of my rods tonight, and while im doing it im thinking all i need now is a motor and i can start turning my own rods, and then get a lathe and start turning my own wood.
if only money weren't an issue....:bl:
