Esox great stuff....good looking home made tackle! It's like catching a nice fish on a fly you tied personally, just makes it all the more satisfying and rewarding. Some nice pike, helluva a set of dentures on that guy!

Very nice dude. I've seen lures out fish bait enough times that I'll usually go lures over live bait 95% of the time I don't even use live bait except for certain species or occasions. And there is more to just it feeling good making your own stuff. On pressured fisheries, totally original stuff (even if just slightly different or an original color) can make a huge difference! You know they've never seen anything exactly like what you made!

My two biggest largemouths, 22" and just shy of 24" both came from a pressured lake that I'd fished for 6 years never seeing one over 18-19" except one 20". I craft a totally original worm with a mold and plastisol and within a two week period I got both the 22" and 24" bass! Can't be a coincidence! Granted most of my other tinkering fails miserably, but I can't tell you how many trophies I've caught also on them! Keep tinkering!
