Tman2 Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 Well, I FINALLY got my baits. Not so much of a problem on Nova's end, but snail mail to another level. It was 18 days in transit, sheeeesh! I have to say I have a few problems with them. 1. They look too good. It'll be depressing sticking a hook into 'em. 2. There is still ice on the lakes, and pulling one of these things across an 8" hole, just doesn't cut it. 3. The pictures on your website don't do your product justice. I'm betting this is something that a lot of you (home pourers) overlook. Just want to make sure I say thanks, and I look forward to catching fish with them, and hopefully turning some biz your way as an added bonus.

nova Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Thanks Terry. Glad you liked them. Hopefully the St Frogs and ST Mino will be up on the site shortly. Got a few more surprises in the works as well. It's a little hard fishing frogs in an 8" hole; lol. Our season starts April 1st and our lakes are almost all ice free right now. Don't know how much time I'm going to get to fish. I guess I'll just have to make the time; lol. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willy Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Um what's ice? Oh! The stuff I put in my beer cooler in December to keep it cool in the sun! Just kiding guys. I love to give Northerners a hard time, maybe the sun's baked my brain. Seriously, Nova's lures are fantastic looking, even in photos. I strive to make my pours look like his. And his willingness to give out good advice to us all is be respected. Thanks Nova. Willy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LooksLikeSinbad Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 I got some novalures frogs and Minos in the mail too. They look amazing! I can't wait to try them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willy He's not paying me, and I don't know him (but we're both from Canada, eh?), but I don't think the photos on his site do the baits justice. I really am going to have a hard time sticking hooks in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smallie Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Nova - you must get a lot of warming from the ocean. In New Hampshire, the lakes aren't even getting wet around the edges yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nova Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Smallie, our winters are quite mild compared to the mid-west or even MA, NH, or VT. It has to do with the gulf stream coming up the eastern seaboard and turning toward England right in front of where I live. Some winters we only get 2 or 3 snowstorms; this winter we got a little more. Thanks to everyone for the nice comments; but you've got to use the baits so I can make some more; lol. www.novalures.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
