summer night swimbaiting

A friend and I went ninja fishing at a golf pond. We started out throwing my baby gill for a bunch of small fish. It was alot of fun but I was hoping for some better fish. Here are a couple of the typical small ones. They were a little bit skinny. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v181/Mattlures/01....

Re: Matt Lures U2 Gill Series

I tried it and I could not mae it work consistantly. Actualy I made about 5 and only 1 worked so moved on. The problem is the tail breaks the surface of the water and then it wont swim. The tail has to stay under. I am sure I can tweak one and get it to work but it way to much trouble to atempt prod...

Re: Mattlures Ultimate BG U2

I just looked on the TW site. The picture of the TW color doesnt show the chartruse very well. In the pics they look almost the same as the regular male color. In person the tail and fins look brighter and they are chartruse.

Caught a couple more

My favorite lake Jennings has been good to me. Here is the little one. She was not quite 8 but her stomach was totaly empty. When I hooked he, she came to the surface, jumped and barfed up about a 1.5lb trout that would have made her a much better fish. Notice how in the close up pic her belly looks...

Re: mattlure minnow series

If its rolling then you guys are using the wrong hook. It was designed around the falcon weighted hooks. DO NOT USE cork screw type hooks. Also you need a hook with at least 1/8th oz weight on it. I preffer the 1/4oz. Use those hooks and the bait will perfom as it should.

Re: Caught some and differnt pics.

My buddy was fishing close by and he had a camera so I yelled at him to take some pics. I wish he would have been ready when it jumped that would have been real cool.
