    Bone Tomahawk

    [video=youtube] Saw it this evening.  Well acted.  It's one of the best movie 'westerns' that I've seen in quite a while.  I highly recommend it if you like suspense and horror too.

    Bottom-Walking Brownie

    Tied this one up this evening on a 'Lead Free Jigs' Custom Hooksup Jig.  It's a natural for this design.  This jig should slide along gravel bottoms like a 'sled'.  Its head shape is perfect for Tulip paint eyes.  Can't wait to fish it next year. :)  Materials: Milani Nail Lacquer #35...

    Updating Old Lures

    Ever tie onto an old lure?  My Dad did, quite frequently, whenever he wanted to replace a skirt or tail that wasn't readily available.  I have a small collection of spinners and spinnerbaits that he modified. Thought I'd carry this forward by updating an old no-name bass popper that was laying...

    Bonefish Flies For Crappie?

    I've inherited quite a collection of bonefish flies that include many Crazy Charlie and Gotcha patterns with some variations. I have several other patterns left to ID as well. Has anyone here fished those two particular patterns for crappie? They seem very similar to Crappie Candy. Most are...

    Vintage Fly Casting Demo

    This is the best demonstration of a 'double haul' cast that I've ever seen, personally, in a video. Yep, it's from 1956. :) [video=youtube]

    Trailers

    Created a couple of jig trailers recently with the use of leather and craft foam. The design is simple. It's simply a square of pebble-grained leather with dog ears and a tongue for the hook bend. Craft foam is glued to the leather using E6000 adhesive. It's my hope that these jigs will...

    Vintage Bait Casting Demo

    [video=youtube] Not very instructional. However, it is simple, nostalgic, and a very cool part of fishing history in my opinion.

    Tip for Gummy Composite Reel Seats

    Over time, composite reel seats may degrade, resulting in a sticky, gummy mess. Rub the gum off with a soft cloth soaked with isopropyl alcohol (99%). I have a nice Tica popping rod that I'm prepping for use and now its reel seat is once again clean, shiny, smooth, and comfortable.

    Chenille-Bodied Tube Style Bait

    John Wick

    One of Keanu Reeves best movies, ever, in my opinion. If you like shoot-em-up action movies and can tolerate a little gore, then this ones for you. Me and the Missus saw it last nite and both of us enjoyed it. Get a chance, see it. Whoa... ;) :)

    Pepper Heads & A "Flying V" Trailer

    Painted and tied several "pepper"-headed jigs last weekend. Fine black glitter mixed with a clear powder coat works well for a "black spot" effect. Fish likely won't care, but I think that it looks interesting. It's simple and fun to do. All jigs weigh 1/8 of an ounce and have #2 bronze...
