So I Took My Needlefish Plugs For A Swim Down The Backside And Guess What Happened?
 
First night out with my new needles and what do you think happened......:confused: .....keeper on second cast.....YUP!:D Guess what else.....:confused: .....hammered fish all night long on my own needlefish the first night out!:bounce: 25 fish total.....between 15-25 pounds...:eek: and I caught all of them on two of the needlefish that I made! :happy: I was fishing a white needle to start with and the fish would not leave it alone......caught my first 17 fish on it until one of the bruisers bent the #5 stainless steel Sampo split ring holding the belly treble so bad the VMC treble came off in the fishes mouth as I landed it! (Slingah will post picture of carnage done to my needlefish)....:btu: then I caught the last 8 fish on a pumpkin orange needle with a white belly! (Beat that one up pretty good too!):smash: What a fantastic feeling beating the everloving snot out of bruiser bass on my own plugs......absolutely the best!:happy:

Excellent!

BasicPatrick 06-28-2004 10:01 AM

Good job there big fella:D

I guess I should throw that pumpkin one you gave me immediately:rolleyes:

schoolie monster 06-28-2004 10:21 AM

that's pretty cool. a night of a lifetime for most of us and on your first trip out with your own wood. You may have to retire and mount that plug as is, damaged ring and all.

Put it in a glass case with a sign "break glass in case of fishing emergency"

Unfortunately, you may have set the bar a bit high.

redlite 06-28-2004 10:48 AM

I hope I am now done puking. I should have been there.
Nice Larry and Sling.

Casper 06-28-2004 12:41 PM

fish talk
 
Well, now I know who will lead the fish talk discussion next month at the club meeting. Congrat's!

BigFish 06-28-2004 12:45 PM

Thanks for the kind words folks.....truely a memorable night for me personally. Just very special and the best part was having a few good guys there to share it with.....Bassmaster, Slipknot and Slingah. :btu: I am gonna have to go some to top it.......but I am willing to try!;)

BEETLE 06-28-2004 01:20 PM

yea, like that 40 lb'r from shore you mentioned. :)

likwid 06-28-2004 01:23 PM

Don't let BM hoe you!

I'll test your bone white plugs for ya! :D

Notaro 06-28-2004 02:38 PM

Larry, try making new metal-lipped swimmers and give yourself another test of your craftmanship and fish-producer title. ;)

Slipknot 06-28-2004 02:46 PM

Mission accomplished :btu:

right place at the right time = :happy: :happy: :happy:
it was my best night on the beach ever :D
I really needed a bassmaster night.
It's a great feeling catching fish on every cast next to you Larry on one of my own needles. I don't see how you could have been any luckier your first night out with your first stash of custom handcrafted wood. It doesn't get any better.

Bobbike 06-28-2004 03:00 PM

Great job Larry, remember the basics,CHECK, knots, hooks, leaders and split rings. :happy: :happy: :happy:
that wasn't the needle U offered me was it ? :smash:
