hammercarp Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 I think it's some very clever marketing adopted from P3TA. P3TA has had tons of exposure over the last several years since they started publicizing stuff that offends or shocks people.I don't think you will hear a word from them about the ad. Good for you St. Croix! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBW Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 poodles eh? I always thought people used guinie pigs? Not big enough for the 50"+ fish. Guinie's are good for pike and low 40" musky, cat's can get a 50" but not as often as a poodle. That reminds me, I have to go to the pet store soon...

12 Volt Man Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 (edited) I think its great. great comedic ad. if it pushes the buttons of the P3TA whacko's - great. they are all nutjobs anyway. St. Croix makes great rods. second only to G. Loomis. Edited December 21, 2010 by 12 Volt Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercman Posted December 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 A great add, and a smart business move, they should change the add to nothin throws a Taliban like a St Croix and have a 10/0 mustad coming out of their now THAT would be funny.But i'm sure someone would find it offensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Posted December 21, 2010 Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 To me, it's just another live bait rig. No different than using a sucker minnow. Works best this way so the bait lasts longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokestackLightnin Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 To me, it's just another live bait rig. No different than using a sucker minnow. Works best this way so the bait lasts longer. Although the hooking technique is a little more humane than how a sucker minnow would be hooked.

vance Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Years ago I T boned a PU with my motorcycle at 50mph, but the closest I ever came to death was when I told the sister her new shitsu puppy would make good muskie bait. :wallbash: vance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisherpete Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Aw man, my secret musky bait from this year has been discovered. *sigh* But the sweater I used was a different colour. (perch pattern) And don't forget, you will need a wooden plank to float the cat on in order to get the full aerial effect from those spectacular surface strikes. When fishing weedy lakes, make sure you use one of those hairless cats to reduce fouling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Devine Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 The next commercial should be "Waiting for muskie season?" Now you hook up your big dog, shepherd or lab type to the collar(no hooks just the snap) attached to your musky rod/reel and play fetch with a stick.. LOL HOLD ON !!

MCTFisher9120 Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 Although the hooking technique is a little more humane than how a sucker minnow would be hooked. Agreed, good thing they keep the bait on a harness...kinda like a O ring on a senko, saves the bait so it can be used a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubleheader Posted December 22, 2010 Report Share Posted December 22, 2010 A couple years ago while planning a trip to Lakair my buddy and decided to tell our wives we were ordering harnesses for baby ducks and asked them if they also wanted harnesses. Of course they were outraged and we had them hooked big time when we got Kevin in on the act by having him send an e-mail to us indicating he would arrange for the ducklings to be available upon our arrival. This went on for a couple weeks, and I knew my wife was very disturbed by this because she would bring it up at the oddest times. "Is it legal?" "Don't you feel badly?" "How do the harnesses work"?, and on and on. My buddy and I work together and every day we'd get together and share our wive's questions and indignation over coffee. At some point I went down to the pet shop and bought the smallest pet harness I could find, brought it home, tied on a couple monster hooks, and laid it on the kitchen table. My wife came home,looked at it and announced she wasn't going if I was going to kill a baby duck just to catch a fish. So I told her the ducks don't always die, especially if you don't cast them. Just set them in the water and let them swim around. At some point I knew she was really getting upset so I came clean. Then there is a period of a couple hours where I don't remember much. We still joke about that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
