43" pencil fish, got it at dusk tonight on the twin to the pencil I posted with the mangled hooks. Good thing I made 2... If it's 30 it will be my first 30 on a pencil.

beauty.

George you did what you like and that is what is important. I personally didn't work hard for the fish, other than loose sleep. I am lucky to have several friends, mostly retired, i have got to know over the years that keep me in the loop. They called me on Sunday night and then on Tuesday and told of the issuing fishing, although i do mark those set of tides on the chart months in advance. I would have to give all credit to them and i hope I can reciprocate the info this year at some time fishing my favorite areas.

Eddie, Slingah got a fish on one of your swimmers, chum clone, on Friday. Larry must have gotten a picture. I wish I had black hair again.

Nice fish. Tagger, you disguise makes ya look like Ringo in his glory days....

It's' funny how much you can be off sometimes. The past 2 years my boga's let me put back a bunch of good 27-29# fish that were shy of the 30 I wanted for the striper cup.

Nice plug Tony. I was using something very similar, in pink too. Got to luv the hawg hunter type pencil for the canal. A proven slayer. Does it sink or just barley float?

44" on my pencil this morning. Probably should have weighed it in for team S-B but couldn't bring myself to kill it considering all the fish we had last year were bigger than it.

$25, and no discount at the Plugfest.

Anyhow, the plug is paying itself back. That's more than I can say for the rejects I scrounge out of the Numbskull's and Flaptail's garbage and refurbish.

The plug: BF 2.3 Prey surfster lip.
The fish: 20-12, 39 1/2", ALS tagged No. 158844, and released.

Bonds to all who love the gene pool enough to release them.

Next time use the reel. Diving in and grabbing him with your teeth is unsporting.

since the celtics are whackkin' it about now, thought I'd catch up on putting up some pics of plugs of mine that have done some damage on fish for me this spring so far.

on the right is from top, a pikie I made a bunch of, a RM Smith danny that the bass wouldn't leave alone, then a spook modeled after a jigman spookk in that olivy color, a pearl white pikie I made, then a junior from Mike Thomas at M&D's


the right side has 3 plugs, a killer mr. pogie that swims amazing, then an awesome rockfish9 dater that catches even in the daytime, then a howdy I made.

2 more pics

the mac pencil worked well in the canal


the little swimmer is a chumbucket and the fish trashed it hitting it so hard, the belly swivel broke so I had to re-wire it before next time when it continued to attract the bass.
