Has anyone tried trolling one of those giant Rapala wall decorations yet?
If not, that will be the next step.
HAHAHA Jimbo is the winner of the funny post contest. |

Location: Medford, WI | Jerome,
You've got me all jacked up to get out and catch a big one now too...I could never thank you enough for that trip...along with the others too!!! You're right about a 23-year old going crazy; I was so excited about that fish..wowwww!
JP, you've got the right idea about fishing them after dark...just like you said. You'll get bit....just make sure those hooks are sharp; and I would also suggest cutting the top (single) hook. I'm glad to hear that the dawgs are in your arsenal now, you will not regret it!!! I've had several people in my boat that have had bulldawgs but never really liked throwing them; after our trips were over, all of them have become huge fans of dawgs and curly sues (Shack Attack). Haha, I love that you've been sending the pic to friends...I've done the same with a few pics. That pic of Jerome's fish is one of my favorite that I've ever taken of a fish/fisherman.
And right on about Stealth, you can't go wrong with them.
Any questions, feel free send me a message.

Location: Medford, WI | Mak, I'm not sure what places are selling them now. Rollie & Helens had them about two years ago, but they don't carry them at all anymore. If you're interested in buying one, let me know. I have one or two extras.

Location: Ontario | Another awesome pic guys, thanks for that.
I've heard for years that the jig hook on top needs to go. Personally I think it'd fight with the belly hooks and be more trouble than it's worth. How many fish are you guys solidly hooking with it? It can't see it beeing the primary hooker at all with two big trebles underneath. There are ice jiggin baits we use like that..one or two hooks are extra and do nothing to help, only hurt. Take them off and the lure works just as good or better. They're not needed. Are you guys dumping the jig hook off all Dawgs or just the big Pounders and 2Pounders?
My #1 reason for not using dawgs before now is how awful they hang up. Would it ever be nice if someone came out with a rubber bait that had the hooks up outta the back. These things look like sukers and catfish to me, it'd be awesome to lay them on bottom and drag them back real slow. Or at least be able to lay 'em down once in a while. All these Q's, I feel like Diane Sawyer. Thanks guys. |
