Thumbs up

Man, that's one heck of an anecdote – look for that occurrence to become an oft-repeated tale. What a sport!

I was at Pt A. a few weeks ago and was talking to a guy ( the fish weren't cooperating very well) and he says he had a good day befuddled I asked him why ( he didn't catch anything while I was there) And he proceeds to show me a plug he found .....you guessed it a 2 oz blurple Habs needle.

I wish I caught it! Throwing Timber caught it! I just took the pictures.

Who knows big fish, the fish are going south, and that could have been your needle.

Plug tagging program

We will all have to start putting microchips in the body of our lures so we can ID same in the future.
