On the market again--Six dollar lures

January 28th 2012 01:07
American Original Lures
An impressive collection!
Ya know that saying, “What’s old is new?” That’s the case for Luck “E” Strike’s American Original lures Better still, every product in Luck “E” Strike’s American Originals line will retail for less than 6 bucks! On top of that, Luck “E” Strike USA is using the methods, materials and even labor, found in lures from yesterday.


AND if you’re one of those America--Love It Or Leave It types, you’ll love this-- every component in the line –paint, hooks, plastic and labor – is homegrown. Luck “E” Strike is doing their part to put Americans back to work and fill tackleboxes with 100 percent American-made hard baits. The first lure in the American Originals line was the Wart Hog. Luck “E” Strike will debut two deep diving crankbaits for the 2012 Bassmaster Classic.

Anglers weren’t having the success they used to enjoy with NOS (new old stock) lures. Why? it was both simple and inevitable. As lure production moved overseas, production materials and methods changed. At last these changes altered the end product into something different despite the fact it looked like the original. Well, the big-wigs at Luck E Strike were listening to complaints and have come to the rescue. No more looking on Ebay or buying lures that are decades old.


“People have been going on the Internet and buying 30-year-old lures because they act, sound and feel like they should, and that’s what we’re bringing back,” is the line from Luck E Strike. No more.

If nothing else, people ought to like the price!




Remember to take the hooks outta yer pocket before ya sit down!

How to cast a baitcaster

January 26th 2012 01:38
Many anglers find a bait casting reel difficult to use and end up with a tangled mess. Although reels almost always come with instructions, they often go unread or the need for adjustment when changing lures becomes a pain.

This video I found on YouTube is probably one of the best out there. It outlines how to use the "automatic" features of the reel and finishes, whether he meant to or not, by touching on what old timers call "an educated thumb."

River fishing in the winter

It's funny how fishing can be so good in a river around June and be nonexistent this time of year. River fishing can be tough and extra tough when you start heading into winter.

river
Sometimes fish gather around structure they find in a river but, it's probably best to look at rivers as a highway for fish. Just as we travel from one place to another, fish are on the move also. When it comes to fish, too many times that highway shuts down when temperatures drop.

fishing hooks
Since the basics of fishing are so simple, one would think it's pretty simple to buy some hooks. WRONG!

There are different sizes, colors and even types.

What the heck is a rotifer?

January 15th 2012 22:11
Ever hear of a rotifer? Don't feel bad if you haven't but it may be one of those things you always knew about but never knew the name of.

colonial rotifers
Colonial rotifers such as these gather in a group around a milimeter in diameter,
Rotifers are nearly microscopic plankton-like animals which are found throughout most of the world in both salt and fresh water but mainly in fresh water.
feeding rotifer
Another variety you may find.
If you look at a drop of lake water you may think there's a speck of dust in the water because rotifers are only 0.1 to 0.5 mm long. Some rotifers are free swimming but others inch their way through the mud. No matter which you run across, they're small enough you're going to have to look carefully or overlook them!

Safety first

fishing

For the most part, fishing is a fairly safe sport. On the other hand, if you’re new to the sport, it may be a good idea to take a moment and think about a few things.

Orca vs. shark

January 1st 2012 03:45
Here's a video that was on my browser this morning depicting killer whales attacking sharks.

That in itself is pretty cool but when a dog gets into the act, the gloves come off.
