It's a matter of education. Vexatious people are ignorant.

This is hilarious! This post has had more hits than Pink Floyd. I REAAAAAAAAAAALY don't want to be the advocate for cheap lures. Urbano Fishermano has had a similar experience with these lures. Most are CRAP. Select the winners. This particular lure has worked I believe due to: 1. Colour 2. Pattern 3. Action (as CCMT mentioned; so messed up that opportunistic pike will attack!) 4. My rugged good looks & 5. SECRET. You'll get it quickly. it's dumb but it's timing/ lure's longevity. Hint: Cheapness, snags, bent hooks=prolonged time in water=less harm to fish! hUH?? Remember, A hook and a worm/minnow is cheap bait.= Gold Don't be deceived by the alure and marketing of $$ baits. Don't forsake Quality. Confidence is key. or Chi. Treat cheap lures like dead bait; Modify and fortify. Modify and fortify. Disclaimer: I shore fish. Therefore, I cannot recommend these baits for trolling. Adiós!

Pics and a video of 7 yr. old niece catching first pike
snag replied to snag's topic in General Discussion
Yes, yes, I admit it; She's taught me everything I know. She was the first grandchild in the family. She is extremely smart and mature. Her behaviour is exemplary. I am proud -
Greetings, Please see below: Meant to post this in September. oops This is my niece with her first pike. I took her on a multi-dockside fishing trip to reconnect (hadn't seen her for awhile) SHE WAS SOOOOO EXCITED! It was a great day. She still brings it up every time we talk now. She is a natural at fishing. She landed and released the pike with minimal help from me. A crowd quickly assembled on the dock while she worked it. Watch the video, the pike freaks and wacks my camera within mm of the water! VIDEO: Total crowd pleaser. There's even more people back there. The other kids there thought she was a goddess for catching a pike! Here is a small bass caught after dinner aaaaaaand the release She's caught some lunker bass since the age of 3! Here's a mini pike. No she's not smokin' it's a sucker. love the glasses! She thought they were magic water glasses! Filler, Poor pic of musky skull but you can see why they hurt other critters buh bye S.

Glad you like it! Clive from Fishingfury.com will be selling them soon. (hopefully that plug will result in some more payola from NickyNineFingers)

O.K. The gloves are off I would put this one Dollarama lure in my top 5. It simply has out-performed MOST of my Rapalas. Here's some proof Various esox having a snack on the same lure. They are cheap, they may break. As I mentioned earlier I've modified it now so that it's indestructible. The modification took 2min. at a cost of .30cents. Braid and crazyglue. I would trade my Rapalas for this lure. Just wait till I post my Dollarama spinner bait post. Gadzooks.

level 8 and then my finger choked

I agree also. However, As you've seen in my reports and as CCMT remarked there is one particular Dollarama lure that has outperformed any of my $20+ rapalas, salmo, zuri's etc. etc. I have reinforced my dollarama lures with a strand of 65# braid threaded through the eyelets of the hooks and attached to the leader. Just like Rich, I've changed the hooks on a few as well. I really wouldn't bother if this particular lure wasn't so darn successful. The colour and action are fantastic. I also take a lot of risks and chuck lures in high snag potential areas and would rather lose a dollar then a dozen probing a spot. My neices, nephews, other reckless relatives and friends have made a dent on my tackle box (+ wallet). For bass, most of the lures above are fine. Anything bigger and the plastic will break and the fish will suffer. Get rid of the jointed one. It'll break. Quality lures are best for serious fishin'

Fantastic, Now I'm hungry! Great report

Agreed, In addition, I like the extra pockets to seperate my gear instead of piling everything into the bottom of the box only to have the box not close. I can add/exchange different inserts with different lure types with the bag. The bag doesn't crack when I drop it on the ground or slam a car door on it.

Being a Dad is great! We are just starting to get normal sleep again. Funny thing happened the other day. The garbage collector refused to take our garbage because the diapers caused the container to weigh a ton. Congrats!

Looks like a peaceful spot unibomber. Hardly recognized you from the neck down. Hope it stays cold!

Terry, I hear that music when his face turns red and an unpleasant odour consumes the room.

Thanks all Have a great week! Thanks Ricola, He's great. He loves fish. Almost fanatical about them. Must be from his mudder? You got that right. This winter is harder then last year. It's literally taking twice as long to get a fish. Mean Kitty was found in Tommy Thompson Park. I'm thinking of it. I'm my own best customer. The boss is an idiot and the pay sucks! I have no idea if it's legal. It was parked at the garage down the street. I'll give Conky a call to confirm!

Nice one Bill, No offence but from a distance, your hut looked like a port-o-let! You and your brother look quite similar, what's the age difference?
-
Very nice. Your hands must have frozen.
