mark poulson Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 Do NOT go fishing with Barry Sterud unless you want your butt whooped by him, using his own crankbaits! Seriously, he put on a cranking clinic today, all with his own balsa cranks. I had a blast. Thanks Barry! Mark 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW Lures Posted July 1, 2016 Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 (edited) It wouldn't be your fishing skills right?? Mark you need to put a spy in his workshop (mini camera if need be)!! Or get a fish pot and fish all week before a y'all's tournament. Keep the fish in a aquarium. Or just figure your going to get your butt handed to you on a regular bases. Get bandaids ahead of time, Dale ps; We're are waiting for a river to down. Floating Smallmouth Tourney, and I'm sure I'm going to get the same treatment from someone so I'm prepared. One of them is a doctor so all's good! Edited July 1, 2016 by DaleSW 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrybait Posted July 3, 2016 Report Share Posted July 3, 2016 Mark is welcome in my workshop anytime. I had a great time fishing too and Mark held his own I just knew where they were at. I got to use my phrase...."called it" quite a few times that day after hooking up on a fish just after I said there should be one right there! But yes the bass are crushing my balsa crankbait with circuit board lip and I would advise anyone to try making one. My first one works great, my second one works great, etc. I didn't seem to have any trouble getting them to run right. Best of luck, Barry 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Young Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 But I do have people coming up to my boat buying lures from my well stocked tackle box. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted July 11, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Just so I wouldn't feel singled out, Barry beat everyone in our Club tournament yesterday, using his balsa crank for all but one his weigh in fish. And his non-boater won that side of the tournament. He's on fire! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Young Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 Only fish with Barry if you don't mind losing.... your pride I guess. Who really loses when you are fishing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
