Banana plug does damage...

Was kind of grinning to myself when George put this thing on, but quickly crapped myself as this upper 20#, maybe 30# fish took it down like it was a twinkie just scant few feet from shore...

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

ProfessorM raised some amazing fish on the flaptail. I've never seen one in action before, but might need to put one on my "to do" list for this winter...a couple real good fish didn't want to stay on the hook for PM, but the real thrill was watching the fish come up and take the plugs...fighting and landing them paled in comparison to some of the hookups we had.
