Location: Washington, PA | Does anyone know if they will have a booth at the Colombus Ohio show? I'm feeling the pain of not buying a few at the Pittsburgh show and hoping to make up for my mistake. Sweet baits. |

Location: oswego, il | You know what, I asked mark smith, the very person who makes these great baits this very question at the chi show. You know what? I can't remember what he said. I am getting too old. Anyway, he is a great guy, will talk your ear off. He remembered me from the ohio show last year. Not sure if he wants me to broadcast his e-mail here, I have it if you want to ask him, pm me for it. |

| My email address is [email protected]. I probably will not be at the Columbus Show. But if I can go I will be splitting time between Rollies and Guides Choice. Guides Choice has 6" , 7" and 15" baits. Rollies has 6", 7", 8", 10", and 12" and 15" baits.I greatly appreciate the nice comments about me and my baits. It is nice to meet such good people as you find in the Muskie world.Good luck to all ion teh upcoming season. Mark Smith |

| Mark is a great guy and we (Guide's Choice) are thrilled to have his baits in our lineup this year. I spent a fair amount of time with him at Pittsburgh and Chicago learning about his lures and the care he puts into building them. I am extremely impressed and you can bet I'll be throwing the Dogs this season. Mark even agreed to do our custom white belly perch and in fact produced some for us between Pittsburgh and Chicago! He's a class act all the way. |

Location: Lincoln UK | They do look great but that isn't the best bit, they work better than they look! Absolutely brilliant lures best worked with small taps from my experience with them and I think I have 36 of them now. I can whole heartedly recommend them. Mark puts a lot of himself into each bait and stands by each and everyone of them. Great bait and a great bloke to deal with. As for prices I still can't believe how cheap they are. |

Location: Apollo, PA | Marks baits are what I term as "slashers". He weighted mine just slightly heavier for clear water. He will make you what you want. Great quality. Sorry i didn't get to see you in Pgh. Mark. My mom was in the hospital and I'm caring for my Dad.
Best to you in 05', Pikiespawn |
