Congratulations to botbot on her win today Man she's got the eye of the tiger look on the first pic Wishing her best of luck for the Nationals in January!!! Leechman

Sweet reward for that split decision in choosing your favorite lure Got to love that.... and congratulations on this beauty king Good luck on your hunt for them browns!!! Great job Kinger and thanks for sharing Leechman

Thanks Dutchy!!! The reward was real sweet today. I still can't believe I got 4 hits in about an hour and half of fishing with this BUG. Thanks Mike!!! It feels real good Thanks raptorfan!!! Thanks Fidel!!! I don't think I want to make a production of it cause it's a lot of work LOL and yes it's too bad it's already patented Thanks Brian!!! Thanks Glen!!! Yes what a rush indeed Thanks Mike!!!

Just got back from trying out the BUG and I just can't believe the results..... As promised, here is my report: I left home around 2:00pm and got to Lac Leamy at 2:15pm.... tied on the BUG and not 10 minutes into trying..... BLOWOUT SAW THE FISH COME OUT OF THE WATER but just barely missed it My heart stopped for a few seconds there I kept trying that spot for a little while but did not get any more strikes so I decided to shoot a video of the retrieve to show you guys how this thing worked. Here is the video Simon style: It works great but only one thing, have to keep the tip of the rod high so that it doesn't sink under but that's OK by me I kept walking along the shoreline and stopping ever so often to work specific areas but did not get any more blowouts..... so I decided to go back to where I first started earlier and what a good decision that was check the video and you'll know why This was the fourth time I got action and this time the pike did not miss the lure..... was I ever happy to finally land this beaut..... have to remember that I don't tie on leaders and with pike, had he swallowed the lure, would of snap me off...... here is another pic of it on shore Now the BUG needs a new paint job cause it got scratches on it Here a couple of pics So all in all that was absolutely the ultimate feeling of catching a fish on a lure that I made Thanks again to all that commented on my other post.... I will certainly make some adjustments for the next one I create. Leechman

Thanks splashhopper!!! Well G just got back from testing it.... and...... read my other report to find out Thanks Simon!!! No problem, just send me the dimensions Thanks Bushart!!! Yes the lip is made out of wood.... It definitely makes a lower popping noise being wood but still works great Thanks OhioFisherman!!! Thanks Tibbs!!! Me too Thanks Rizzo!!! Thanks Jay!!! I just got back from testing it and will be putting another report shortly..... uploading the pics and videos Leechman

Thanks Mike!!! Yes the fight I remember clearly and what a fight.... at boat side Paul tried to net it and missed and it went under the boat I thought at this point the line would snapped but was able to get it back " man 10Lbs Trilene XL " is one tough line. Once in the net.... the rest was history!!! Thanks CLofchik!!! I just tried in the bath tub and it would not sink in.... was the opposite.... it sway left and right and kept to the surface..... If the weather cooperates tomorrow, will give it a try in the river. Thanks Dabluz!!! I have another brand new one that I never tried yet.... just the thrilled of making it and may be catch a fish is what is all about. Thanks johnnyb!!! As soon as I can get to the water.... will give it a try and report the results. Thanks Bruce!!! Like I said in the above replies.... the test in the tub was positive.... pulling on the line to move it across the tub was awesome..... once tied to a rod will be the true test. I'll report back when I do. Thanks Dutchy!!!

Thanks Mike Much appreciated!!! Jacques

This wooden piece has got to be my favorite of all the ones I created. I was inspired in producing this one after I had caught my nickel (5Lbs 6oz largemouth bass) this past August on a simple but productive lure, the Jitterbug..... the lure I caught it on, belonged to my dad before he gave me his tackle box when I was a teenager and never got to use very often...... guess he was watching over me that morning Thank you POP! I love you I still can't believe this brute got suckered into engulfing my surface lure and I remember, crystal clear the event that insued. For those that didn't see it..... here is the pic of my nickel So I really got thinking about creating it after I had checked my report but wasn't sure on how to even start..... The following reply got me intrigued and I just could not pass the opportunity. Had an idea and got busy..... This piece is in two part, the body is almost 3" inches long (give and take a 1/4") and the big lip at the front was quite a challenge to cut on the bandsaw. Needless to say, I was able to accomplish the cutting on the saw and finish the assembly, after a nice paint job and a couple of varnish coates..... here is the results another angle It is almost a copycat of the original one and couldn't be more happier with the results. Hope you enjoy! Leechman

Awesome report and great pics Pete Congratulations on your PB She's a real beauty Sounds like a fun time and thanks for sharing your trips with us Leechman

Jonh, don't think it was something he had to prove..... it may very well be how he's going to play for the reminder of the year. He likes playing a physical game and got to lurn to keep his stick on the ice and not in the other team players face...... he took bad penalties for high sticking and that cause the game to switch momemtum in favour of the Habs. That Habs line Gomez, Gionta and Cammalleri is a great addition and brings another level of offense and speed. My only disapointment was Gill.... man that guy is like slow moe compared to the other players. He caused a lot of turnovers but hopefully he will ajust his game as the season progress. Leechman
