skinny Posted May 17, 2011 Report Share Posted May 17, 2011 ok I was at BPS on Sunday there was a guide doing seminar from on top of the tank. He was useing a soft segmented bait pretty sure BPS brand too but the action was very real. I never thought about it much while I was there (on another mission) but now I keep thing how real it seemed to act. I whis I could remember what the name of the bait was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRT8 smoker craft Posted May 20, 2011 Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 Paul Castellano or Derek Strubbs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinny Posted May 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2011 oh man I'm not sure of the guys name now Strubs does sound a bit familuar but could just be from reading it on line i guess I'm just going to have to pas on that one or take a guess. It was just cool to see the action on that bait I should have paid closer attention but I was watching 3 kids at the time 2 of which were not mine and have different values than mine so it was driving me a bit nutty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Devine Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 Salt water-local guide was probably Mike Bertleson from Huntsville. As for the bait not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2jack2 Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 When you send email to BassPro, the email goes to the General Manager, which the only way you will get a reply is if he remember to forward your email to the fishing department manager, which he will be returning your email. If you didnt get a response by now, mostlikely your email didn't get to the fishing manager. The best way to find out what you are looking for is to call the store and ask to speak to the fishing manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
