Talking Capesams Makes A Pretty Sweet Plug!

The best thing I caught in the entire two weeks I spent down the Cape was two needlefish plugs that I bought at my favorite tackle shop that were made by Capesams.....and I knew it the second I laid eyes on them......I added them to my collection. Nice work CS.....Paul speaks highly of you......good guy that Paul.

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Just need to put them in front of fish, yours will catch. That hahn/surster one you sent has a nice action to it. Unfortunately, I could not put it in front of some fish this spring
