cuttyhunk+habs needles x rm smith =winner

got back from the magical island and this is how it was

shadow and joe..good to finally meet you guys.. dave ,mark and i had a blast

big wind + big water = no eels, even with 1 oz pencil lead jammed down their throat

so what to do

bring out habs needles and ryan smith surface swimmers

the girls wanted the these lures more than a crack whore needs another hit

Had one train straighten out a 4x vmc on a habs needle..one will never know how big she was but i will tell you this...everyone on the elizabeths knew i dropped one for the record books...i think my voice is still gone from screaming

to the guys that are heading out there...stock up on these plugs...you do not want to be without

good luck and tight lines

CONGRATS on a NICE FISH Jim, And KEEP using them HAB'S..................Stop by the Habratory and REHAB.

Over the Last Several Years HAB'S NEEDLEFISH Have Caught More "Confirmed" 30, 40, 50, and even 60 pound Striped Bass than any other Wooden Needlefish on the Market today. 2 Over 50lbs. and 1 Over 60lbs. in 2005 alone........... "HOOK UP WITH HAB'S" Your Best Bet For BIG BASS.....

around 20-22lbs, largest for the three days was 24.


Slug-go's were also the ticket. More than once, the spook raised them up and the slug-go sealed the deal.
