Location: Angola, IN | That is almost the same color pattern that I have Stan paint baits for me.
It's a killer pattern on clear waters for me.
Sometimes, he puts a silver side between the belly and top. |

Ah, um, why ? I'm kinda of a curious detail guy.
You bid to an obscene amount for a lure ?

A quality charity and not letting some packer gloat about how the lure was carved by Lombardi as achild in the basement of
Curly Lambeau's house and rubbed during the ICE bowl for good luck is almost priceless.

PS Tip, Pack, wipe the sausage grease from the fingers BEFORE you you get in the game. |

| the money DID go to a good cause.
(it was marine_1 and myself that bid this lure up --- the Minnesota/Marines outbid the Wisconsin/Army on it).
my stupid friend had to go and schedule his wedding for the same day, so i won't make the tourney. |

Was a pleasure meeting you last Tuesday. I had a great time at the Muskies Inc meeting! That Weagle will make 'em eat, that's a fact. AND, the 'short kid' will be watching that one, and blessing it with a 50 now and then. |

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | Well, I don't work them the same way some do. I give the bait a very hard shot straight down to make it 'pop'; then an easy hit to glide her sideways, than a series of pops (two or three), then a soft glide,etc. to the boat and an eight under the surface from about a rod distance out. Has worked for me! |

| that's really helpful steve - thanks.
i've been playing around with trying to get it to work "right"... |

Location: Racine, Wi | You can work the daylights out of the bait. I don't fish them very subtly back and forth. Try to make it more violent. The commotion seems to draw them in, and Gagoooosh!!!!! Fish on!!!! 
A fitty for sure on that bait. (even if it is cursed with the Metrodome)
(by the way, you could probably hit the metrodome from your house if you try to cast that sucker. heh heh heh |

| In my limited experience with a borrowed weagle, I don't think there's a wrong way to work the lure.
Except possibly, the way Eric (EsoxLaser ) runs it. But he's learning.
