Posts: 4266 | Very cool J. I've been using CJ's for a few years now, but I think that they might have some competition. Nice looking stuff. Welcome to the basement, where all the centepedes come to party. We have to get hats or something. "BORN IN THE BASEMENT AND NEVER BROUGHT UP" | ||

Posts: 55 Location: Nekoosa, WI | Jason, Any rubber skirted or marabou models in the works? Just curious. Nice looking baits, I just might have to pick up a couple or five! JB | ||

Posts: 1939 Location: Black Creek, WI | Jason, nope... no rubber skirts on our Long Tales. Perhaps try an ERC Grinder? We are sticking to hair for the time being. Attachments ---------------- Copper Carp Double Shot - compressed.jpg (16KB - 146 downloads) | ||

| Jason, I noticed the eye is turned up where the line attaches, is this by design or default. Please elaborate a little.... | |||

Posts: 336 Location: Lino Lakes, MN | Jason, I had the chance to see a few of your tails the other day and I gotta say that I was highly impressed. They are built like tanks and the colors are great. Im looking forward to tossing them when I get back up on my feet. | ||

Posts: 1939 Location: Black Creek, WI | What a fun weekend with the family. LongTale spinnerbaits put 5 fish in the boat for me, my dad (Grandpa), and my boys. Nothing huge, but fun none-the-less.

Posts: 1939 Location: Black Creek, WI | Had another fun weekend in Three Lakes. Team Piggy/Long successfully defended the title at the 15th Annual Esox Classic. Although I caught 2 fish on LongTales, my partner, Piggy, boated 4 on Mepps Marabous. We split the $$$$ with the Big Fish... which taped 47.5 inches and set the new Big Fish record for the event. Another team also boated 4 legals.... which would have been a new record had Piggy and I not boated 5 to beat them.

Posts: 1939 Location: Black Creek, WI | No babysitter last night... so my wife went to Country USA and I took the boys fishin'. Just picked up a new ABU Record and 8' Premier that I wanted to break in.... and Jodi tied me up a custom color Big Shot for the 6000 acre pond as well.... and it only took 15 minutes to score! The boys helped me hand land a 38 incher. What a hoot.... and the new rod, reel, and lure have passed the test. Action last night probably had nothing to do with the lure.... as there was definitely a window happening as the weather changed. Had 4 others up in that first hour and boated a dozen or so pike. Then the lake went dead.... and got even more dead as the sun went down (typical for that stupid lake). I'm having a lot of fun with Long Tale Tackle and proving that the self-fulfilling prophecy still prevails..... | ||

Posts: 1939 Location: Black Creek, WI | Gotta love it when people have success on your baits. I wonder which one of Danny's LongTales helped the Wojtusik Brothers cash an $18,000 1st place check at the Eagle River PMTT this past weekend? Those boys can probably catch fish on a bare hook.... but hey... they chose to give a Long Tale some playing time.... so I'll enjoy the free press CONGRATULATIONS Mike and Dan!!!! Consistent success. You oughta be proud! Attachments ---------------- DanW's LongTales.JPG (56KB - 149 downloads) | ||

Still no post sunset success...hmmm...keep working at it, it can be done! Just gotta move outside the box...hell, get away from the town that the box factory is in. -Bob | ||

Posts: 1939 Location: Black Creek, WI | fish4musky1, What is your concern with ordering custom lures online? It's the only way we do business.... so I'm curious what your concern is. Your feedback would be appreciated. Thanks. | ||

Posts: 1939 Location: Black Creek, WI | Here is an email I got from my good buddy Todd Forcier: C.J. Behr's first musky. A nice 35-inch Wisconsin River musky caught on a Long Tale Hot Shot Spinner. Best part...he got it right at the boat. Scared the $hit out of him. A fish he'll never forget. Thanks Long Tale Tackle. I apologize for all the "self promotion", but this basement bait thing is a lot of fun.... especially with stories like these.
