Heron

Because its pretty. And since its pink, the larger females go for it.

Large price tags on 'conventional' lures, for me, are Heron repellent. I can understand if the bait is a large size, or is something fairly unique. But, a $25 bait in favor of a $6 bait, of the same type? - no way. But my perspective is probably unique, in that It depends not what I value my tackle at, but instead, what I value the fish at. And the average Largemouth Bass, as a species, by my reckoning, is not worth the use of a $25+ bait. Not unless maybe...youre getting into some exceptionally larger fish. But thats just me.

Receiving gift cards...thats about it.

I just hang mine on a rack.

Does anyone else put two skirts on their Spinnerbaits n such?

How many squarebills?

I ate one in clear water once - seemed to work fine.

I bought a pack of Bobber stops.

Im aware of this.....however today, they are strikingly unavailable.

Yeah, No thanks.

Thanks Tom, I appreciate you looking...but the "clown" colors were not what I had in mind. Im sure theyre fine, but Im looking for Red & bone White.

Im looking for a crankbait type lure with a simple red & white paint job. Im not finding it. Do they not make these anymore?

+2 The price sucks....but yeah...very cool bait.

Live Frogs

Here is another incarnation - I actually haven't tried this one yet.

This sounds like a good time to use a Mega Daddy

Wait.....No more giant bass? why is that?

Sure does

Hah...well I gotta get me a skirt making tool first. But Im already thinking about colors, like maybe a green pumpkin lizard with a pinkish/redish neck skirt.

Thread them directly onto a screw-lock swimbait hook, for a snagless swim jig.

Water current would probably roll it over to much.

Ok Im having a thought... Ive been thinking about the presentation of slowly crawling a jig/craw across the bottom. And Im wondering...how it would go, if I put together a similar presentation on either a carolina rig, or a weighted swimbait hook - with the use of a punch skirt. Hmmm.... It may need some tweaking, but I think Im gonna try that this year.

Well...thats for the bigger bites

I just pulled out a Trick Worm from a new pack today, and this one worm is a half-inch longer than the other worms in the same pack. Im not really sure how this could happen without it being from a different mold all together. Strange.

Try some Fits. Fits are really good for pitching, especially the larger sized ones.
