jude Posted October 18, 2008 Report Share Posted October 18, 2008 Glad you like them! I usually flip some of the hoods back before I send them as a reminder that it's a popper or slider. I forgot to, so here's your reminder.....Jude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maineman Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 Jude, I used one of your white bugs (I think it was from the Fly Show welcome box) on Saturday at Fermi. I caught a 15" lmb and later what would have been my biggest bass ever if I could have gotten it closer than 3 feet from shore. I was using it with the hood back. It's definitely an effective little bugger. Thanks, Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rapala Posted October 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 Nice! I'm glad I got them to you in time for some fall action...Jude Just out of curiosity, what is your favorite color combination (just to look at) not that you find most effective?

jude Posted October 22, 2008 Report Share Posted October 22, 2008 I'd have to say black with florescent orange thread and legs is the coolest looking combo. I've had some fun coming up with color combos and their names: Purple and Yellow: the Tarkenton Red and Yellow: the Big Mac Black and Yellow: the Franco Black and White: the Pepe Red and Black: the Beelzebug etc. etc. etc....

I have something that I hope will be pretty cool in the works. It may be a few weeks or so before she can do it but if you want, tie one up in your favorite colors and send it my way or she can just make up the colors from one of the ones I already have.

Yeah, I'm interested to see how it turns out myself. I'm just bummed out that the weather turned cold and kind of ruined tha fall bite. I'm sure it was good for people that have all kinds of time to fish but with 2 kids a awife getting her MBA fishing time disappears. Not to mentioned getting suckered into fishing tournaments this past season. I have officially retired from that crap again and am now back into having fun i.e. flyfishing.
