Move went fine. The new server is much faster. Which is good!

I'm planning on moving to a new server within the next 2 to 3 weeks. Just a little friendly warning as there might be a few hours of odd behavior when the process starts. I will try to have it done at night or weekend.

I'm not trying to rush winter. I'm sure some semblance of winter is on the way. That means we are approaching the 2026 Ultimate Sport Show Tour - the three biggest fishing and outdoor sport shows in Michigan!

Yesterday at the Natural Resources Commission meeting in Lansing, science prevailed thanks to many, many persons who took the time to write in, and especially those who showed up to speak before the Commission on Commissioner Walters’ amendment to close bass fishing on the Inland Waterway and Black Lake from May 1 until the third Saturday in June.

I made these with all LureCraft Products.

Retarder

These are actually going down to a guy in Florida to thank him for taking me fishing for two weekends. Took me 9 hours to make up 30 total. (Not Cheap as far at time goes)

Solid bodies with salt so they'll get down a little better.

I poured them, painted them and put the eyes on, then I dipped them to keep the eyes on and give it that "glossy" look.

Are you getting away from the dipping method completly or is this just a custom job for your boy?

Also, regarding y our bachelor party.....is it B.Y.O.S.?

Inquiring minds would like to know.

what water temps are good for swim baits.
  i threw one wed night on cass for a while.  it sure looked good in the clear water.  Unfortunatley i was the only one who thought so.  didn't get a hit. 


joshimoto son

McCarter,

No... I just thought it would take me too long to make up the tube bodies...AND I wanted to get him some bigger baits. they have fish that will eat a 6" swimbait down there.

By the Way... B.Y.O."S?"
Stuff?
Stikbaits?
Sister......?
LOL


Dartag,
I'm not sure about how well these things are going to go over up here. I've caught one pike and have had a few bites so far... but I know what you mean, what self respecting bass would not want to eat something with that kind of action. I've had some follow ups, nothing big though.
I'm just wondering if the color or pattern is going to be a key factor.
I'm also willing to bet that, real soon, some bluegill colored ones will tell the tail if they're gonna work or not.

joshimoto son ;D

Original song and lyrics by "MadWags"

What's with the news these days on the TV and the radio. Can't find the truth amongst the lies. Some talking head that claims to live their life in a better way, says I have to compromise. But now there's something on the rise. Truth has opened up my eyes. There's no running from your dirty lies. You can't avoid the truth. I'll no longer close my eyes.
