After a couple suggestions to go simple, downsize, add eyes (just for you RonDon) and a hint on productive colors in different regions...... sat back down last night and gave it a spin. The round heads are 1/8 lead free with a heavy hook except for the red neck on the end. It is lead and has a...

Been a little obsessed with evening and late night walleye shoreline fishing. The majority of my baits that have caught fish have been big 5" Kalins grubs on 1/16 heads with oversized hooks or big (6" to 8") stick crankbaits like Rapala Husky Jerks and the like. Trying to come up with some big...

Got home today from a weekend trip to Buck Creek State Park. Just a hair over a 2 hour drive from home. Beautiful place with pretty decent sized sites. Lots and lots of woods to get lost in. Pretty small campground over all though with only just over a hundred sites total spread out and...

Wife pulled a couple bags of bluegill and crappie from the freezer yesterday and we ate it for supper. After we finished and cleaned up..... i announced that i was heading out to fill the void we just put in the freezer. Usually that never works, but the moon and stars must have aligned last...

As it always does, seems there is not a lot to discuss at times. Everyone must be out mowing lawns and fishing. I'll throw some stuff out to chew on. :D Meet the new grill..... same as the old grill........ Finally put together my new grill and broke it in over the weekend. Look at that...

Has been a while since i have tied any for my box after stocking up through the winter. Sat down the last 2 nights (stormy nights, no fishing) and tied a variety. Did a few with some new rabbit colors i got a while back..... 1/4 tin heads w/ zonkers, fuzzy fiber, chenille & silicone skirts...

Here is mine..... Please feel free to post a picture of the view from YOUR front or back porch on this thread. Would sure love to see what other peoples view is from THEIR porch. I spend a ton of time here just sitting or cooking and think it might be neat to see what other people...

All on custom poured and painted jig heads, just not all tied jigs tho........... Got all my chores done for ta day so headed East about 8-10 miles to a big upground reservoir. Willard reservoir to be exact. Storms were popping to the West (actually rained at my house) but not a sprinkle on...

Spent Thursday evening at the new reservoir just outside of town. Only managed a 11.5" crappie and three 8" bluegill (target species for the evening) but had this slob hit a little 1/24 jig pegged a few feet below a float. Put up a battle on the light rod and line. Measured just a hair over...

Love walking on hard water but always feels good to be able to get back out and cast from shore. Here is my FIRST soft water fish for the year that i caught last week. It was kind of photogenic, so it is now my desktop background. The jig is the same 1/24 head i was using through the ice a...

These will be headed to Hunter7711..... once i figure out 1 more pattern to send. My OCD kicks in on theses type of things and need to tie 3 of each. ;) These are all 1/8 heads using rabbit for tail. Hopefully catch a few.

Guy posted this video on the Ohio Game Fishing forum. Video was taken from a drone. Pretty cool view and shows the crazy number of anglers that get out after these fish. [video=youtube] The walleye push into a couple rivers in the SW corner of Lake Erie for spawning, usually right after ice...

When the kids were done dipping eggs i looked at the cups (and my blue fingers) and started to wonder...... Can you guess what is taking a bath?

Got a question about what holographic glitter i use for powder paint so went down last night and took a few pics. I have about every color of glitter imaginable, but really only use a couple varieties now and they are all holographic to some extent. I have a green glitter and orange glitter...

Just stumbled across this and have never seen this vise before, but dang does it look nice! Has an interesting 'C' shaped arm coming out to the hook jaws that would be really nice for long material ties. One of the accessories is a Dual Material Clip that slides into one of the accessory holes...

These were extra items purchased so i could fill in with a couple substitutions. Just need to get my money back out of them now so there will be a little discount, probably free shipping. They gotta go! Caps have embroidered logo and shirts have full chest print. All will be sold first come...

Figured i better get painting something for the swap. :D While i was at it, i cured off the rest of my odd-ball heads that had been hanging. First pic is a few 1/4 heads for bass and walleye. The mold is supposed to have a triangle barb as well, but with leaving only the ball barb they work...

Only been tying a few here and there, but do need to re-stock my box with a good supply of the small kip and wool roving jigs for when the crappies start coming up with casting distance of shore. Gills after that. Got a friend i met ice fishing that i plan to give an Altoid tin worth also...

I see people now and then wanting to come up with custom heads and molds and can't remember ever seeing this shown as an option to create a custom jig head..... Hilts Perfect Replica Mold Not really sure how you form the rubber insert to create the shape? Looks to me like there is 4 inlets so...

We have some time to kill before everything gets completely embroidered for the clothing sale. Some generous fellas offered up some give-away prizes to add a little somethin' somethin' to the honey pot. Took me a bit of thinking (i am slow) but what better way to kill some time than have a...
