Andy Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 (edited) I just received a St. Clair Hound musky bucktail in the mail. It's a Canadian made product from the south shores of Lake St. Clair. Now I might be a little premature in my praise of the product, but I must say I'm impressed without having even used it. The price was reasonable, and it was in my mailbox within days. It it a beautiful bucktail. I have had good success with Mepps bucktails in the past and they remain a favorite lure. I also have some double showgirls by Musky Mayhem. I have yet to get a fish on the Showgirls, and I must admit, part of the problem could be that I don't give them enough time in the water. But if the Hound works as good as it looks, I may sell the Showgirls to make room for more Hounds. I have a number of Double Showgirls, and I have yet to net a fish with any of them. So what I guess I'm saying is that if you believe buying Canadian helps us all, take a look at these lures. I am not affiliated with the company. I talked to the owner on the phone, and his service and attitude were great. I know Johnny Dadson makes a good lure as well, but I haven't purchased one of his lures, yet. Just something to think about if you're looking to add to your arsenal. (and who isn't) Andy http://web.mac.com/dogriver1/Dog_River_Lodge_Lure_Company/Welcome.html Edited September 20, 2010 by Andy
Guest Johnny Bass Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 Have you given Mike P's bucktails from this site, a whirl?
Guest Johnny Bass Posted September 20, 2010 Report Posted September 20, 2010 Oh,I forgot to mention. I read Musky limitations by Marc Thorpe on the site and found it interesting. But I do believe there are muskies over 70 lbs somewhere in Ontario.....I'm guessing GB and lurking the depths. And if we continue to have these mild winters the possibility of one being caught will increase.

And I found a few of the articles on the site interesting as well.
Dave Bailey Posted September 21, 2010 Report Posted September 21, 2010 They're on my list at this post. Check it out for lots of Canadian manufacturers. I didn't know we had so many!
