  1. put a lip on the body so it wobbles like a crank! Great bait, I would love to Muskie test one of those!
  2. Nothing holds like Owner hooks!
  3. I WANT ONE! Trade you one of my buctails/spinnerbaits!
  4. I have been doing double willows for awhile. They put off mucho vibration!
  5. I use a small section of surgical tubing instead of coils. The tubing allows the thread to cinch down securing the flashabou. I use a fly tying bobbin, and I use two one package per skirt. I use a small section of wire with a loop on one end to slide the tube on, then clamp the wire end in the vice. Wind the thread on the tube, grab half the package of flashabou and center on the tube and wind and cinch thread down, turn skirt to bare side up, apply rest of flashabou and repeat. finish with a few half hitches and apply superglue to wraps. Mine last many muskie thrashings with no shirt loss.
  6. Mepps uses .42 on their Musky killers
  7. There are so many. Look at Rollie and Helens or Thorn brothers cataloges to get pattern ideas. You cant go wrong with flouros, perch, sucker, shad patterns.
  8. I used .51, but downsized to .45. It's easier to work with and beads fit better and clevises spin freer. Mepps uses .41 wire, so strength is not an issue.
  9. spike it blade dip will color any metal pieces and is reasonably permanant.
  10. I had a Muskie hit a Bass I was reeling in before. This year on the IL Fox Chain, my partner says "whats that yellow thng in the water?" We ease over to it and it was a low 50's Muskie with a 20"-24" carp T-boned in her jaws. Carp are shaped like footballs, no doubt that carp was 5#-8#'s!
  11. Owner Hooks! As Sharp as Daiichi or Gamagatsu, but the spade point holds like no other.
  12. outstanding baits! Me want!
  13. The double spinnerblades on the spinner baits work great! Sake action as a bouble bladed bucktail. The hooks on the spinnerbaits are not oweners.
