Re: Remember the Torpedo? (Pic Heavy)

Great post! I remember this little fella, we all had to watch our mouths because we knew he was on. ;-) Dude knows how to fish! E haha, that's funny! Most of the Hawk Talkers did a great job of keeping it clean. It was appreciated, believe me. It wasn't lost on me. 8) And yeah, the dude DOES know h...

Re: Westin Lures - Worth it?

Platypus looks very similar to a believer, http://www.driftertackle.net/shop/believer/believer/ Hi Daboss, Yes, they do look very similar. So likely they would run similarly, too...I guess! I have a VERY old Believer in my tackle arsenal. Needs new hooks. Did you check out the others, Mike the Pike...

Westin Lures - Worth it?

Recently saw a dynamite video shared by Justin Hoffman that showed some exciting underwater footage of big esox slamming Westin baits, most especially (silly names) "Mike the Pike, Ricky the Roach" ... etc... They are a combo of hard and soft body and have an incredibly tantalizing and rea...

Re: Video Report - Quebec Smallies - Updated

Thanks. I'm going to have that dumb song stuck in my head all day. Ugh......................

Worth it, though! Fun video. You guys are so lucky to have the opportunity to fish in such gorgeous, remote places. Good stuff!

Re: Remember the Torpedo? (Pic Heavy)

Not "tiny" any longer is he :) Good to see he has grown into a fine young gentleman. I still remember his excitement when he caught that first bass you posted.... Thanks for the update. You done well. :) By the way, Steve, we had a nice replica made of that giant bass Ty caught as a kid; ...

Re: Remember the Torpedo? (Pic Heavy)

Thanks so much, guys. Some times I have to remind myself he's a young man now, and not a little kid.... but some times I wish I could set the clock back just a little and revisit those days when he was small. He's headed home now from 2 college visits, and I can't wait to hear all about it. He alrea...

Remember the Torpedo? (Pic Heavy)

Re: Fin Repair on Skin Mount?

Floooooaaaat! Thanks for replying, and yes -- I can give a local taxidermist a call to inquire, but thought someone might have had some experience with repairing their fish mounts in the past. I also thought a little clear varnish or nail polish might do the trick. It's my brother's fish, but it's b...

Great bunch of pics and sharp-looking lid design, RJ.

Think I'll put one on my just-started Christmas wish list. :wink:
