I ran across a couple of plastic baits while cleaning out some tackle boxes and I need some help figuring out how to fish them. My first thought was that they would be perfect for finesse fishing on a 6-pound line. Are these craws ideal for “finesse fishing?” What do your opinion?
A marine-related incident occurred at approximately 11:20 a.m., on Saturday, Jan. 28, 2023. A grandfather and his grandson were fishing in the current below Wilson Dam on Pickwick Lake. Both fishermen were thrown from their 1981,16-foot Bass Tracker fishing boat, which is a small aluminum bass boat-style boat.
This is a boat similar to the boat involved in the accident.
A-Rig and similar multi-lure/wire lures can get out of control when being stored. Here’s our solution. Simply wrap a small cable tie strap around the wires. Slide the cable tie down to store the rig and slide the plastic tie to the weighted head to fish. Simple, cheap, and effective.
