This is my current pb.. 7lb 11oz Caught a few months ago but never had a chance to post it so here it is! Tricked this one into eating the 250. Pretty rewarding catch for me!

It was a good mail day

Poor video quality, but this'll give an idea to how she swims! VID_35080408_230041_309.mp4

Nice chunk here now Idaho! I figured out where they are holding. Some big ones coming soon!

Here's the new Stalker Shad that I just finished. Adding soft fins was a lot of work, but worth it in my opinion since it adds a bit more realism to the bait. I just got back from a quick testing session, and the swim looks pretty decent so far. I was able to fish it slowly as well as burn it. I guess I'll have to keep chucking the Stalker and see what the fish say! Also, do you guys think that I should make the pupil of the eye horizontal or should I leave it going vertically? Any other thoughts are appreciated!

Took me a while to figure out how to get bit with the bait. But once I did, it was easy and non stop from there haha

Anyone on here ever try fishing New Hogan Lake, CA? Tried the search bar and nothing popped up. My brother and I have been looking to fish some new waters but Camanche Lake fees are getting pretty steep...plus I've heard New Hogan has a decent striper bite that I'd love to connect with. Would really love to get on a good swimbait bite if we can. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated, thanks! Dan

Oh yea that's awesome !

Thing is badass man ! Where can I get one haha

Eyes are just like they should be.

Teach us your ways!

Chunk! Congrats!

Got a smallie and a largie on it when I went to New York! thanks everyone.

Congratulations

Sounds good, thanks for the info

Never fished it I'm a hour and half two hours away from it depending on traffic. Iv been looking into it as well

Awesome catch.

I've fished it. Know a bunch of people who do. Guts get limits of striper from shore pretty regular. I fished down by the dam when it was low as "Not Allowed". Only for a little bit. Its got some good points and deep coves.

Grabbed one thanks!

Great one

Solid fish!

Nice.

Nice man! That rat gets bit all across the country!

Nice fish man !

Looks great man, leave those eyes vertical!

Sorry about the rough week, bud. Awesome design on these tho. A++ 100 100

Paint on slammers is overrated

Latest addition is a hammershad that the fish and I like a lot, and also managed to get some baits hung up on the wall while patiently waiting for this heat to go away.

good luck everyone...i won't be able to fish this one with a kid due during the tourny timeframe

Looks great. That little guy would definitely get hammered.

I would urge you to use some newer fly tying materials, they may be able to provide a good mix of movement and durability. Craft fur, polarfiber, EP fibers, and artic fox, and even rabbit fur may be cool to experiment with.

Cannot be real life

Nice build! The paint looks great!

Finally got one off the PhoneyFrogUSA shad glide. Not a giant by any means but a good one for ohio especially for a smaller pond.

who gives 2 sheets why someone is buying or selling a bait for?? Worry about why YOU are buying or selling YOUR baits for.

Some more custom. One more batch to come.

You might find a ledge near 20 feet and that might be the holy Grail. The true bowls can be tough. Those fish might suspend out in deepest part using depth as structure.

Based on pic and your given dimensions.....5-1/2 - 6-1/2. Next stop.....scale (also spare batteries). Aside from sight fishing.....no one ever knew when that DD was gonna strike. And you DO NOT want to be wondering if you crossed that lifetime / magical threshold.

Personally, I make my own feather trebles. I'm sure most others do as well. Its actually really easy to do. Stop by the tackle shop, grab some thread, a bobbin, marabou feathers (That's the secret to not affecting the action) and some super glue. There are tons of tutorials out there and its really easy to do. Costs less than 10 bucks to do quite a few as well. PM me if you need help or pointers. I'm no expert but i found it fairly simple to do.
