slabshad Posted April 18, 2003 Report Share Posted April 18, 2003 In the days of designing, building, and testing our own baits here is a little food for thought; Wind quit blowing so hard today so I snuck out on the lake for couple hours fished the hot water outlet. It is a hell of a long cast from the restriction fence to the gates, so I need some weight besides the slab-n-shad I tried an old perch pattern Heddon Sonar and a 1 3/4 ounce 4 inch lipless cranker that I made several years ago. Well I lost both of these plus one other Sonar in the bottom rocks but before I did I caught 2 Hybrid Stripers 4lb and 3lb two 16 inch largemouth and about 35 nice white bass. Kept 6 Whites for supper Man they were tasty. moral is Don't forget about some of that old stuff in the bottom of your tacklebox. It still works good.
