Capesam, I wish I had that Fixter Needle still! This Spring I went to Mike's house to pick up some pikies. Mike had a ton of needles getting ready for shipment to the Eastcoast. Needles had never been used here much, but I was curious and MIke gave me that one. I used it off and on and couldn't get my faith in it using it the way BM had told me. The fish here wouldn't take a sniff and I went back to my tried and true stuff. Then one day I had rough water and used it as an under surface popper. Working it like a pencil. Well the fish decided it was worth the effort and started to nail it. Had some great days with it then One day at a spot a slug came up and destroyed the lure and I guess his tail hit my line and snappo!!!!! No More Fixter needle! So you are not the only one without a Fixter!
So I have to be happy with my Fixter pikies now!
Like this one......
