I caught all my fish this year on my own wood......except 2 fish on a hopkins, 1 on a Gags needle, 1 on an Afterhours needle!!! I caught more fish this year than any other...granted there was no size to speak of but that is because they were not there! I had tons of fun fishing the way I enjoy fishing....with wood!:kewl:

Also forgot to mention...coaxing fish out of where ever they are with a piece of homemade wood is pretty challenging!



What ever you say! Your to big to argue with!:btu:

There is a method for every madness, and I'll use whatever the method I feel is going to tip the scale in my favor at that time. Live bait, lures, the sissy stick with a clouser, or a 5 ounce bucktail. Its kinda like that theres a time and a place for everything sort of deal.

Someone who knows me very well has told me in the past "Eddy don't get locked in ". I know exactly what he means and I have been guilty of just that . Fishing the same beaches ,, the same way ,, year after year. I've gotten alot better now that I'm aware of it . I'm usauly armed for bear . If I got a schooly rod its winter and I'm testing plugs . You have to change it up ... new things ... I have to jig the canal more .. If the fish are on bait ,, maybe a skin plug is in order. more scouting missions ,, more moving water..
