    Big Fish From Shore At Night On Jigs

    Yep. We had one farm pond, blue gill, blue gill, bluegill and by ice fly, big cat taking the waxworm. Not once but several times, landed a few tho. Was great fun. Mostly stay off the hard water anymore. Takes too long to heal when you mess up. LOL, Arne.

    Big Fish From Shore At Night On Jigs

    Guess maybe it isn't a run as such. Usually the fishing gets pretty darn good off the shore as fall progresses. I am thinking mostly whites and crappie. I know at Harlan the cats move into shore later as winter starts coming in. Friend of mine is catfish crazy, he finds them rite til ice in...

    Short shank, large eye

    Looking for a short shank #2 with an eye big enough for a #2 split ring. Wanting to rig a jigging spoon with one hook instead of treble. Easy to find the hooks not so much with the big eye. Thanks, Arne.

    Another take on why fish (possibly) strike lures in general (not accepted by most)

    Have kinda tried to stay away from jobs since I retired. Been talked into a couple this spring, enjoyed them, but they take a bunch of time and energy. Done with the one, the other includes fishing. Pretty much retired for the rest of the summer. Mite have to help with harvest a little this...

    Hookup. Retirement is a great way to spend your time. Course seems like I am as busy now as i was before retirement. Seems like it takes longer to get anything done, maybe thats why I am so busy. Keep after them fish and catch a bunch. Arne.

    Battle of the Lures: Share Your Stories of Homemade Lures Outshining Store-Bought Ones!

    Ties some really small marabou jigs for fly fishing. Just a dab of solder on the hook and a bit of marabou. Trout loved them and were hitting on them when I could not get them on anything else. Think they were just something different, but worked good.
