Title: Its That Time Again

Here are some newly shoot baits I have made.  They are kind of my 4 basic food groups when I start out each spring while chasing specks and reds around.

The blue one produced a 26" and 21" speckled trout and 2 slot redfish as well as a couple other keep trout on Friday afternoon.  Unfortunately I was not the one who landed those hogs. My buddy was putting on a show hooking up and landing 8 fish in our first 150 yards on our only wade.  I was 15 yards away casting in the same area and missed the only hit I got.  That's just the way it goes sometimes.

I made a similar blue yesterday, but the blue and clear are loaded with glitter.  Blue is loaded w/ Canadian blue .04 and the clear is loaded with silver holo .015.  Going to be a killer color on some of the waters I fish where blue/silver is hot for pike.
