Nice lookin lure John. Looks like the old Cobbs I used to love. Do they float at rest? Slowly sink? Can you get on them prety good, or are theya tap tap side to side? I like em all, just wondering what type of action they had.
They slowly sink and and rock or quiver while they are sinking. The sinking is so slow that the lure looks like its hanging there rocking. The bait pictured is the small size, I like the next size bigger myself but this lure took the best picture..... lol. The Suicide Sucker works well with small taps and worked slow. Great fall and post front lure. Freds other glider the wideglide is more of a fast paced glider that you can hammer on and make swing out there!!!
Fred, sorry about missing the "a" in Pearson in my earlier post, I'm a fisherman and typing is not a strong point of mine...... LOL
Fred's lures can also be found at http://www.pearsonplugs.com |

Location: Freedom, WI | H2O Tackle will not have a booth but Tadpoles will have some HardHeads in their booth where I will be hanging around. If there is something you need from H2O let me know and I will bring it along. |

| Looking forward to the show and the possibility of a bit more relaxed atmosphere. Milwaukee can be crazy...
For the record, if you like thin crust pizza; Sam's Pizza in Schofield has been my absolute favorite forever. From the show you'd have to follow business 51 towards Wausau and it's near the McDonalds in Schofield. There's actually another location up in Wausau too.
I have not had the new place's pizza that was mentioned but I would highly recommend Sam's. |

| Oh ya, had Sam's pizza last year in Wausau. It is great pizza.
Hey, Geiss Meat Service is going to be at the show and handing out free samples. They have got great brats, beef sticks, and jerky. You need to stop by their booth and grab some jerky to go with your Leinenkugel's. |

Location: Schofield, Wisconsin | I live a half mile from Sam's. Yes, they have good pizza but my family loves Stelleanos pizza. Awesome herb infused thin crust and nickel sized spicy sausage. They also have a bar. How can you go wrong? And close to the show. |

Location: North Metro, MN | Ahh the anticipation! Can't wait to see all the new baits & fishing greats. Also got a few rigs ready I've been working on (by Generation Next Fishing) for the Blue Ribbon Bait & Tackle booth... first one's out other than what I've been making for friends & family over the years so I'm pretty excited. Some are tied w/ Nickel-Titanium and some with wire. Some single rigs and doubles, star flash, flashabou or naked rigs (no flash). 10% of proceeds from the rigs will also benefit the kid's fishing clinics we're putting on. Hope you enjoy...

| Will there be any booths and reps from HUMMINBIRD or LOWRANCE ? We're shopping this year and it would be great to get ansewers and explanations about their products. It's difficult for a lot of shops to know everything about the products they sell. Thanks. |

Location: ladysmith, wi | i do not think lowrance or humminbird will have booths at the show, but there will be many people there who have vast knowledge of electronics that will give you a honest answer to your questions, steve sworrall will be in the tuffy booth and from what i here he is a genius when it comes to finders and what they can do and how to use them correctly |

Location: Price County WI | If you have any questions about Humminbird look up Brandon Dunbar at the Ross's Sport Shop booth, he's pretty sharp on the new units. Like Semper Esox said there will be many people that you can talk with, the guides and tournament fishermen that are working the shows depend on electronics and fishing to make a living, and you will get an honest answer from them not a sales pitch! |

Location: Central WI | What's the deal with the lure swap on Saturday night? I've seen it advertised but nothing about it on the show sight. Does anyone have any particulars on this; like set-up, sharing tables like at Milwaukee? |

Location: Price County WI | I dropped my banner off last night so it could get hung this weekend at the show site. I got to see a copy of the floor plan, this show is set up nice and all of the booths on the main floor were full and the booths were spilling out into the front hall!!!! It's awesome that someone finally brought a show of this caliber closer to northern WI!!!! There were a lot of venders that I recognized and a few new ones that I never knew existed. Maybe one of those new companies will have the next hot lure trend..... |
