I`ll buy it. Thank you Hawn, this looks perfect for my commercial boolies. I got the "precision" mold that does not fit the steelhead hooks I prefer.

The legal size for a sea-run atlantic trout there is 50cm which is when they start fast growing. The Fins have no understanding of imitating shrimp or sea worm since the Eastern Baltic is practically fresh water. The are not as enormous as the ones in the great lakes though. Today I tried the...

I was on x-change in Finland and have been visiting Friends there in the years after. I still stock handcrafted tout trolling lures from there to complete my product range. They derive from row-boat summer fishing and are particularly well suited for simple spinning gear on small watercraft...

I remember extremely good results on herring feeding finnish sea trout with the Westin Salty "diamond thief" color sceme that is nothing but eye-soring holografic silver. Best herring imitation ever. Its a technique I found I need to master when jigging around herring.

starting to get the hang of it. I use a contact grill to heat the silicon foam and then sandwich everything between two thick wood boards taht I step upon for 80sec. Not exactly "money" considering the combined effort but nice to learn a new technique.

The paint is nice for breaking up structures but does not do much for the details of the head. Can you show us some raw castings? I could think of a tin cast and spinner blade insert under the chin.

Slow Jigging is all the rage overseas while many Americans look at casting jigs and wonder what the fuzz is all about since they`ve been doing almost the same thing for ages. Almost the same....  The thing is, there are some interesting new perspectives to it. In their attempt to evade fishing...

Looking for new ways to adapt slow jig techneeks to my shallow home waters, I have done very well with improvised inhciku jigs for small mouthed flounder. Namely a 1oz Flutter jig with a hole in it, rigged with a bucktail flounder teaser from e-bay (=China) and a pair of #2 octopus. Tipped with...

Howdy! I came across this cheap knock-off from a pouring supply store that makes cheap knock offs from molds that some guys found desireable for Norway n stuff. The action is fantastic, a very unique lure! The mold however is nothing to work efficiently with. The perfect fit of do-it inserts...

I am intrigued with this stuff, and as it seems it can`t be too hard. Does anybody have experience? Would love to combine it with powderpaint.

I hear its the European`s turn now to not be let into the U.S.. Frankly, I understand. The Chinese Government has managed to get a grip on the plague but only with measures that are inapropriate for a western democracy. Situation in north Italy is bad. ERs are saturated, certain groups like...

We have this ridiculously small "put and take" (is that even a thing in english speaking countries?) trout ponds where people cure their cabin fever during off-season or just go for meat. I have learned to respect them. What looks like literally shooting fish in a barrel follows its own rules...

Had a friend over for bucktailing cod in front of the shop yesterday morning. Trout used to show every evening lately so I made a few casts in the shallows around dusk. Got some small and pre-spawn ones together with this well fed 53cm keeper. You can spot my lure maker nemesis, the...

Its "Kiel Week" again, we are expecting 3Mio bilge drinking visitiors over for free concerts, quite a bit of sailing contests and last not least half the free world`s navy to relax after the "Baltops" naval exercise. What struck me this year at the "open ship" event in the naval base is not only...

Had very little success lately chasing flatfish with my own boat so I was happy to follow the invitaiton of a friend who knows every single boulder in the outer kiel firth. We had 7 nice cod in the 60-70cm range which is a very satisfying size over here. Its been a while since I harvested so...

I hear these catch overbred rainbow trout in P&T ponds. Certainly not seaworthy, the hook needs to be vcry light, but easy to make and a unique action.  Beads on a wire basically.

Seen everything? If not, come to Kiel and check out our new air purifier! EU scientists had found out that people who lack the means and/or common sense to move out of the direct proximity of major roadways die significantly earlier than those who live in nice suburbs. They link this to...

I am very happy to retail Wiggle Fin Slide Lock beads together with their action discs which help me market trolling flies. The last customer who bought them - a substantial order of nothing but beads- mentioned the name "Carolina Keeper". Turns out both are registered trademarks for a product...

Ever since I tried some Namibian "Biltong" dried meat this summer I have developed a bit of a taste for dry stuff. Ordered several fish jerky variants but the only one I really liked was salmon, which is somewhat close to sea trout which again I happen to have on hands once in a while. I tried...

Hi, no more monkey business with my moded usd wobble jig that sells like hot cake! I need a decent clean multi-cavity production mold, with handles and everything. Can anybody recommend a commercial mold maker? Prefferrably a guy who is familiar with jigs, can work with samples and doesn`t...
