Fishing with Tiki-Sticks By Pete Larmand...

Hot Bassin' Tips...

If You fish Large Mouth Bass, you'll benefit from reading my ol' friend's well written piece on using the Senko style plastic baits, in this case a Wave, Tiki-stick! I, like Pete, love to tinker with and tweak lures to make them work better under varying conditions. I own very few "stock" lures anymore. :-)

This particular article shows y'all a nice and easy trick, that can work for You too. Enjoy!

Fishing with Tiki-Sticks, Bass Fishing Tips, Hints and Advice

Enjoy!

P.S. I saw a LM in the 3 pound plus range along the shoreline @ my secret Ottawa fishin' hole yesterday. Hmmm, I have to wonder how long she'll be safe around there. There are some large 'Lunge, known to frequent these same waters. Also it's pretty easy to see her shallow nest now from the newly raped and pillaged shoreline down there now that it looks like a freakin' lawn. ALL of the previous shrubbery, is GONE! Thank you very much, NCC. NOT! :-(

Sketches...

Some simple sketches...

Did I ever mention that I like to sketch, for lack of a better word, the odd time? Well, I do. I don't know just how many old notepads I have laying around here but each and every one of them has at least a few sketches in it. Nothing very fancy or even particularly good, mind you, but just simply a few ideas that I've put to pen, none the less. Most of them involve terminal tackle but sometimes other stuff is drawn out on impulse or to show someone an idea or how something would work or whatever.

So anywho, here's a peek at my sketchin' style, or lack there of, depending on Your point of view, of course... :-)







and...



So there ya go. :-) Do any of You, do any sketching?
