Three pounds around 20". Not one brook trout.
Me and Shawn hit Staley Springs today. Obifishcenoby is the best ice fisherman I have ever seen. I’ve seen him catch nearly 80 fish in two days. I did well with 9 today and the biggest at 4 pounds.
We did get a few Brookies today.
He’s hamman it up on that huge brook.
Looks like another great trip, some real nice fish you guys are getting.
Four pounds was our biggest and a few 3 pounds. Most 2 1/2 pounds. I haven’t got one over 5 in 2 years. My best three years ago was 7 pounds. Shawn did get two little ones.
The hot ticket for me is a Maniac 1/16th swim head with a white with red flake Gitzilla tipped with a headless meal worm and Mikes trout glow scent
What are you going to do when you run out of those Maniac white with red flake Gitzilla and why do you think they work so well for you?
Those jig heads are just a bullnose head, very easy to replicate, if a person had a little extra time and money.
I bet you are right Lyle, I’d think someone like tubeDude or another member would be willing to pour up a batch or four, for the right price, if they had the mold.
I’d pour a bunch if I had the mold. I’ve never really thought about selling anything, I give a lot of what I make away.
From various places, Janns netcraft, barlows tackle, lure parts online, probably a few more that I can’t think of at the moment, I shop around a bit for the cheapest deal I can find. A lee melting pot makes pouring easy and never have to worry about losing a jig again, protec powder paints are a easy way to color jigs. Plastics are easy to mood also just need to find the mold you want. It’s a bit of initial expense, but worth it in the long run and a great feeling when you can catch fish on something you’ve made.
Had a great day with Randy, we caught 45 from 7:00am to 1pm, my last 2 fish where my hardest to Catch and the Henrys dilemma got the best of Randy.
Another great day for you two, nice orange flesh trout and great pics. So how did the Henry’s dilemma get to Randy?
