SWEET!!!!!!

[GBOUTDOORS]

Thats the word that says it best about Bliz's new trolling rig The Bait Simulator. Jane and I took the day off and went to the Westport river for a boat ride. As this was a (ride) I was not fishing till we started back for the landing then I told her I had a new rig from Don that I would like to troll a little just to see how it worked. This thing is great if you don't mind trolling and catching fish that don't count that is. I fished it on a leadline rig so I could work the changing depth of the river easily. I was going to keep this thing to myself but you know me, can't keep my mouth shut. It puts very little drag on the rod and lets you know that it is working by the rod tip action. I put the rig over and started down the river just to see how to work it. It looks sweet in the water like a small school of herring or pogies. I guess it looks real as I was in only 8 feet of water and a ofspray came over and started to follow the rig behind the boat. I took the rig in till I got to a deeper part of the river as the bird realy wanted a shot at these (fish). I put the rig back out down river as we came up on a deep hole that usualy has a few fish in it. There were two guys trolling live herring there already that went nuts trying to see what I was using as they had gotten nothing so far and we got a small fish the first pass. They kept trying to see the rig and even came over close to get a look see. This rig will float if you stop the boat so I am thinking my 9er rigs may not see much action this season. If you like to troll you got to see this thing in action I am hooked!!!!!!

I found this on the net. Not a good picture but all I could find.

Hmmm. I like the looks of this. I bet it would work well with a downrigger as well.

Bliz...how can one obtain this daisy chain of slammers? Need any island field testers?

9'ers on wire works but they tend to wear out the angler as well as the fish.

these are the slammers that Al Gags tried to market to surfcasters.
problem was: they dont cast too well.
Don Blizard {bliz} took them and adapted them for trolling. and man-o-man what a rig he came up with!
these things are deadly! and they swim like the #^&#^&#^&#^&ens.
look out school tuna, here we come!
