Known as the father of structure fishing....

Buck Perry.

Late 90's - early spring with surface water a little under 50 degrees. I had been fishing for a couple of hours without a bite, and mrs. detroit commented on why am i still fishing with air temps in the high 40's. (she doesn't fish) I put all the rods back and pulled out my ultralite 4# rod and tied a 1" pink curly tail on a 1/32 oz. head and went to a little canal. This canal is about 15' wide and only 50' long, but only 1 of 2 canals on the lake. 1 dock. Pitched that little grub under the dock and something started swimming away. This is the only lake i fish that i can see only 1' deep. I told Deb to get the camera out, because i don't know how big it is or how long i can keep it on. Longest fish fight i ever had - about 5 minutes but seemed 3xthat. I got the fish to the side of the boat and it was a musky, over 40" long, and i don't have a net. Tried to "collar" it but it's back was too wide - couldn't get a grip on it. Thrashed a bit, then broke my line, and off it went...

I have enough frustration in my life and putting a lure on isn't going to be one of them. I aint as smart as you, Darren. Glad it works for some... ☣️

Norman speed clips are the devil.

In the 70's, some company came out with a more modern version in plastic. it was shaped like a heddon lucky 13... you could put anything inside it - i only used it once, i put foil gift-wrapping in it. Made a few casts and retired it. I like to collect odd-ball lures, so there's that.

Yeah, that's sorta how it works...short term before long term 😟

6' Dad - English / Cherokee Mom- Irish/Dutch - both grew up in Ky.

I hate thieves. Scumbags.

Overcast and a possibility of rain helps keep the "pleasure" boaters off the lake. 🙂

As above, but i would also throw any treble hook lure under 1/2 oz.

Info from 3 weeks ago has nothing to do with fishing yesterday. (as far as fishing goes, probably more so in fla.)

I thought that you were going to change your name to Lew's is overpriced.

For some real crazy hunting action, take your skirt off. I don't normally fish it this way, but once in a while i will.

How does Reese eat her ice cream? Witherspoon. I burnt my Hawaiian pizza the other night. I should have put it on aloha setting.

2" x 3" or 2" x 4" zip-lock bags are about $4 per hundred. No special box needed.

What do Alexander the great and Winnie the pooh have in common? they both have the same middle name. somebody stop me.

Not aware of eaglebass?

The numbers 19 and 20 got into a fight. 21. Who invented the round table? Sir Cumference

Would like to see behind the blade / how is attached. I would assume more action than that Yozuri "ball" spinnerbait.

Everybody that makes tubes make white ones. To me, a bone color is more like a light beige and not white ?
