Nice pics Dan.....I recognize those mussels...

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole

Very few hours of sleep most nights followed but long work days.

Some boat fish on custom wood.

No epoxy, just a quick clear coat for these. The trollers are a take off of the newer gibbs GTS but I used white pine and a pikie 3 lip. Would love to get a older pichney version but those aren't a easy find.

Thats because the thread reads "2009 fish on customs", not "2009 people with fish on customs".

Lipless swimbait, 4 sections, little over 5 inches. Be surprised how many 9-10 inch smallies hammer it. This one is a little bigger:
