Using this logic, I have two $3500 Ned heads in my garage. Couple of hours to make the mold and only two poured. I was not happy at first but once I learned how to make molds things got a lot better. Allen

If you are on a spinnerbait bite in clear water with wind and the wind stops, throw the swim jig. Allen

The past couple of years I have been using Owner heads but they are expensive. VMC recently introduced a new hook so now I make my own that are similar.

To me they are all a PITA to separate the strands so I don't use it. Allen

Senkos weightless and Jackal Flick Shake 4.8 worm (best bait ever for this presentation) on a 1/16 to 3/16oz flick shake head. Allen

Machine is called a duplicator and I believe Cliff Pace bought the machines from Zoom after Ed passed. Allen

YOU NAILED IT! Definitely a Kraken attack. Allen

Another thing to consider is time of year. A lot of baits you try to sell today for $30 may not sell. List them for $40 in January and they will sell right away. Allen

Anyone that has fishing stickers they don't want I will trade you for something? The Jr bassmasters kids like to put them on tackle boxes,etc. so I can always use more. Allen

Only thing that makes since is he backed down with one side of the truck on the dock and flipped. Allen

That's why I posted it? How do you flip a truck upside down on a boat ramp? Just imagine pulling up to that boat ramp to launch and seeing this? Allen

I have seen many failures at the boat ramp but this one has me at a loss of words? Found this on Facebook and everytime I look all I think is how? Truck is upside down but the trailer isn't? On a scale. Of 1 to 10 worst traler backing this person is at 27 Allen

This one is great. Allen

I give any fishing related stickers to the local Jr Bassmasters club. They hold a fishing flea market every year to raise money and the kids like the stickers. Allen

Here is my twist on chartreuse/white. Both colors of the skirt and the paint have iridescent blue highlight. Allen

I have about 300 different colors of silicone skirt tabs and buy any new colors that come out. Charles at fishingskirts.com has made me 3 custom colors in the past because I was one of his first customers. Since I airbrush my spinnerbaits basically, I can make whatever color I want. The past two years I have been making baits based on pictures of baitfish. Some are easy and some are hard? The yellow perch ones I make have 5 colors of paint on the head and 9 different colors of silicone strands. Allen

Pleasure boats are a PITA in Maryland to deal with. I was fishing the Potomac once and it was early November, so I was not expecting any other boats besides other fisherman. Next thing I know two jet skies blow by me one on each side of my boat. Air temp was like 40 so I was thinking what the hell? Both operators were wearing full scuba suits with googles and looked like henchmen that would be chasing James Bond. Allen

The reason I hate making them is there are 100's of companies making this color. To me it is unimaginative and boring. Allen

I hate making chartreuse and white spinnerbaits but a buddy asked me to make this. It's a 1/2oz on a titanium frame with beveled willow blades. Allen

The way I got into pouring is I couldn't find Eakins finesse jigs in green pumpkin. BPS was always out of them so someone explained to me how to make them myself. Bought the Do-It mold and the hotpot ladle melter for like $50. That mold paid for itself at least 10 years ago. Now I have a couple more molds and some better equipment to work with. Luremaking is a hobby just like fishing. Allen

I use them for the double fluke rig. Allen

I have been trying to coordinate a Maryland get together for a couple years. Allen

Some idiot put the snakeheads in there the same way we now have flathead catfish. Allen

Benefits to me is making baits exactly like I want. You have to use a lot of jigs to recoup initial costs. Allen

So do you know what the bass are feeding on? I say this to echo Tom's comment about the gold blades. I have been making spinnerbaits for over 15 years and can tell you everyone in Florida wants gold blades. It has to do with the golden shiners being the dominant prey for FL LM. All the people I have dealt with want a 3/8oz spinnerbait with larger than average double gold willows and a whitish with gold skirt. Now I have never fished in FL but based on the above requirements the water is shallow and larger than average golden shiners were the prey. Allen
