MALTESE FALCON

Nothing secret here: Original Shad Rap, in custom Gander Mountain color. 1/2 oz. double willowleaf spinnerbait in white, or translucent. XCalibur Xr50 in Pearl Melon, or Blue Chrome/Orange. Lucky Craft Rick Clunn Rattlin crankbait 1.5, in Ghost Minnow. Falcon

I replace my beat-up skirts with the Strike King Perfect Skirts. I like the "Magic Tails". If you like to use trailers on your spinnerbaits, they are built in, and if not, you can cut them off. They are $2.99 for a package of two. Many good colors also. Falcon

I've had very good success with Megastrike. Falcon

Fantastic work, Barry!! Falcon

Like A-Jay said, the Octopus hook is great for live bait rigging. I'm certainly going to give them a try. Falcon

Last season, my Flat Maxx Deep, in Threadfin was my best smallmouth producer until I lost it to a muskie. Falcon

Way to go CJ!! Recently, my best fishing buddy is my three year old grandson Gavin. He's a Senko fishing master. He's pulled quite a few nice LMB out of my canal......Great times!! Falcon.

Beautiful baits!!!! Falcon

Hey, it's been a long time...............Welcome back!! Falcon

Xaps have put ALOT of smallies in my boat. I typically put them away after the water reaches 60-65*. Falcon

Baitcaster. I haven't used a spinning rod in three years. Just a preference. Falcon

Absolutely beautiful bait!!! Falcon

Did you bump your head?????????? Ohio over Michigan???? ;D ;D ;D Falcon

Great looking bait. That color works well here on St. Clair, if you'd like me to field test it for you. ;D Falcon

Sweet looking baits!! Falcon

As a die-hard Tiger's fan, I'm inconsolable. My wife, and I were watching the game, and when the call was made, I couldn't believe it. Every time I see the replay, I just get more upset. Armondo got robbed. Jim Joyce was man enough to apologize to Galaraga, but that doesn't change the fact, that he made an idiotic call. I have to stop now, because my blood pressure is going up again.LOL Falcon

Another vote for the original Shad Raps. Falcon

Here on St. Clair, my most productive baits right now are: 1-XCalibur XR50's in Pearl Melon, Blue Crome/Orange, and Rayburn Red. 2-Double willowleaf spinnerbaits with White, or translucent skirts. 3-Bandit Flat Maxx shallow, or deep in Threadfin Shad. Falcon P.S. Long casts are your best friend.
