ah G. it is just a home made knock off hunk of stainless. I used the chrome one. They are all homemade. I can't see spending and losing a 35 dollar lure. Easy enough to make myself. I just buy the weights which they sell separate. Bitch is bending the stainless. They do work real well for big fish as I have gotten several over 45 the last several years, but you really need to use wire which most people hate. The fish I got last week swallowed the whole lure which is the first time i had that happen. Usually you don't get a real good hook up because of the wild action of the lure. I never count on a spoon caught fish until it is in the boat as i have lost some beauties right at boat side because of crappy hook ups.

Way cool. I've always wanted to catch something on one of those. Got a couple of Reliable versions, and fooled with them once or twice, but never seriously fished them. Wire doesn't bother me, I kinda like it actually, but haven't done any trolling for some years now. Used to be my go to method for big bass. Getting an itch to try it again. Have you dragged any of those slopeheads you built? |

Yeah G. they work real well sometimes. Been the only thing working for me so far. Most times if you are lucky enough to hook up it is usually a good fish. Rod is important too with them. I have not tried any of the slopeheads yet but maybe in the near future if the T&W fishing does not get better for me. I do have few in my tackle trunk.

Yep, he lulls them into a false sense of security, then slacks them with a spoon when they're not looking   
Nice looking spoons too!

Numby: I have my photos in my PC and STILL don't know how to Attach it because the pic is huge megapixels, with mygood camera and technical prowess; but it needs to be dumbed down to 800x800 for Attachment here. Obviously, I know how to dumb myself down a lot easier than dumbing down a PC pic.

Summer Doldrums
Trip hosted by Numbskull. I left the eels behind. The pictures are two different fish; in fact two different needles. Numby doesn't give me white plugs; so, I am forced to go out and buy them.
The Fish: 36-3 47" and 24-0 41"
The Plugs: SG Needle and a Gag's 9" Needle. Both rigged single treble only. No tail hooks.
All fish released, of course. Yet I practically kill myself pursuing them.
Bonds to all who love them enough to release them.

Nice fish Joe, you are on some nice fish!
Here's the best I could do last night, 22#'s on a tiger needle. This was the lone highlight from a verrrrry long night/morning. But it is august, and I guess any night you hear your drag is a good night.

Nice fish, Joe. We're scratching down here, but I hope it becomes showtime from up your way. Keep 'em coming.
Good stuff as well, DJ. Last pm seemed very slow where I was, too. Congrats for working a decent fish out of it.

Nice catch SK. Are those gloves hospital issued? |
It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole

Yeah, on Numby's boat or his truck ( especially the truck which he hasn't washed since the day he bought it in 1998), if you don't where them you can easily pick up some un-pronouncable desease. Masks are advised as well.  |
Why even try.........
