    Changes?

    Until some guys came along and trashed the site with their villainous comments that first started by trolling and then became members trying to force their bullying tactics. Moderators are very important in controlling those non-angler idiots that have nothing better to do. I stopped visiting...

    Uni knot made easier to tie

    Tried it with a circle hook I use on 8 lb test and it works.

    Used to use a tablespoon as a mold - now only a floor tile and a few molds to make thin-tail minnows

    Check out my posts for ideas. Size is only one factor. It still shocks me when I catch fish unexpectedly on the weirdest lures and sizes.

    Hands down, soft plastic rule.

    Found a way to keep plastics in place on jigs

    The one thing I hate about using soft plastics on jigs is having to constantly push them back up after four or five fish. About 15 years ago I came up with what I call a grub grip that won't allow the lure to slide down the hook. Coated floral arrangement wire (24g for most jigs) Wire cutters or...

    Senkos aren't the only 'sticks' that catch fish

    After I caught bass on a 4" Senko it never occurred to me that anything smaller could catch fish or have the same action. Last year I discovered that could. I was fooling around and somehow came up with this 2 3/4" shape and attached a 1/64 oz jig - either wacky rigged or from the front...

    "Your spoon tails sure have been good to me!" Have you used something similar ? or are you in reality my buddy JM?!!!

    Used to use a tablespoon as a mold - now only a floor tile and a few molds to make thin-tail minnows

    One day I happened to stir hot plastic and noticed a film sticking to the tablespoon, thus my user name. Until now, I hadn't seen thin straight tails sold anywhere but wondered if the thin, flat plastic quiver would be a game-changer when curl-tails failed. So I cut the shape of the minnow from...
