mark poulson Posted August 20, 2022 Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 Recently, I went, with my daughter's family, to the Monterey Bay Aquarium. My older grandson was fascinated by the otters. Afterward, I remembered a large, two-piece otter wake bait I had made, and then found too heavy to throw all day. So, yesterday, I dug it out of my old baits stash, cut off the bill, removed the hook hangers, and put a stubby fat senco onto it for a tail. He'll get it today, and I think he'll love it. It's not the first old bait I've given him, but it's the first one that actually looks like something he's seen recently and liked. Lucky grandpa! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flaswimbaiter Posted August 20, 2022 Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 kudos Grandpa! I made a dolphin swimbait that didn’t swim the way I wanted it to, so I removed the hook hangers, painted it baby blue and gave it to my granddaughter. She absolutely loved it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted August 20, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 I'm sure she did. My grandson loves his, too. He got it today at a family birthday party and went nuts! It was fun to see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
