Drop shot questions
I personally like the VMC drop shot hooks. Saves me time, I'm not the best at the polomar knot. I have them in a couple different styles depending on the size of bait I'll be using. -Brian

Who would you fish with for a day?
My great-great grandfather. According to my grandmother when he came to New haven in the early 1900's from Sicily he peddled fish out of a push cart. He would row his 10ft boat out into new haven harbor and fish for blackfish, fluke and others. This picture is from a local newspaper sometime in the early 40's. He rowed out to the breakwater looking for blackfish, on his way in he found this monster stranded on a rock by the receding tide. Claws to tails it was 24 inches and weighed around 20lbs.

Please help ID this vintage lure!
Thanks for all the help, it's definitely a Burke flex-plug. Still not sure if I will use it or not. I found a cool vintage catalog from Burke Baits online. They had some really cool stuff. Not sure if I can post it here. brian

Hey everybody, was going through some of my old tackle and came across this. It looks like it's foam with a thin latex type outer shell. Obviously it looks like a top water popper. Other then that I know nothing. Please help, I think it's a really cool lure. Thanks a bunch, you guys are the best! brian
