I have been fishing Alan's rubber for a few years now, and nothing on the market has the range this bait has. So much you can do with it. The injection has just made it better. I took the stubby last year and some of the new pintails with me on my wedding trip to st.lucia and the keys and it was sick. Also did well on the boat and at the canal on it last year and the year before. The new clear stuff reflects so much light from the notches that you need shades on a sunny day to be able to fish it. The silver looks like a comcast remote. Wish I was home I'd post some pics. Last year the tuna were all over that stubby. We had guys coming over to ask what we were throwing.

I just took delivery of my MSBA show plastic, my buddy John from Ellsworth is doing my pouring now and I'm glad to say its as good as the stuff I poured. I do plan on taking some pictures, some of these colors are my personal favorites from years of tinkering and are colors you will never get from the larger companies. My personal favorite is my sand eel imitation, its a clear belly with gold holigraphic glitter and the top is olive with black glitter; its a killer. My other go to has a clear belly with a silver holigraphic string glitter and the top is smoke with black glitter. Yes I'll have the standards; pearl, black, marker bouy yellow, bubblegum, chartreuse, olive and dual color baits you won't find anywhere else.

Sadly my divorce and sale of the home/shop killed my business 6 years back, but I'm finally bringing the Ledge Runner Baits back to life. I have to say my 13" MegaJerk was one of the first true big baits to be fished locally, many of the canal guys loved that bait bounced on heavy jigs. Before all the talk about fishing big plastic for tuna, I had a couple guys custom ordering my 9" BigJerks in my sand eel color, along with 7/0 hooks with screw locks I turn out in 60# rigging wire.

My personal favorite bait is my 7" split tail, in an around the Vineyard bounced on a jighead, that bait will catch everything. Its large and meaty enough to attract attention from big blues (unfortunately) and bass, but it really shines on big fluke and black sea bass.

I'll post some pictures of some of the colors I'll have at the show, looking forward to see some old fishing buddies I've not seen in a few years.
