New Secret Weapon spinnerbait
Hey all, Joe had built me a new secret weapon spinner bait while I was
at the NWC. This is a dual spinner blade spinner bait, but the blades are side by side, seems to keep the bait up with less effort. Anyway, yesterday morning I had the first real chance at using that bait, and got on the water about 7am. I was greeted with 46 degrees and a Northwest wind at about 15mph. I pulled up on my first spot, and in 20 minutes had 7 smallies on the spinner bait, including a 17.5 that probably went over 3lbs. I ended up catching 13 total, but the key seemed to be keeping the bait up above the dying weeds in about 3' of water. Thanks SWL, one more tool in the arsenal. I also wanted to say, those fish refused to come all the way up, I threw a zara spook and buzzbait for a while as well and got no reaction. But running that spinner bait just under the surface was the ticket. Chris |

In addition to that, I caught a bunch of shorts and had a 45 - 48 inch muskie decide that it looked good enough to eat! Unfortunately, I had to apply a lot of pressure to keep her out of the outboard and the hook pulled free. I love that little lure, like you say, it works high and slow, with the blades just churning away. It throws a lot of flash and vibration without having a lot of horizontal speed. It was perfect for that Friday and the severe cold front that had moved in! When I start feeling better, I plan on throwing it a lot. Heck, I might even say "Screw it" and go today! -- Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers http://www.outdoorfrontiers.com G & S Guide Service and Custom Rods http://www.herefishyfishy.com |

Never while fighting them in open water. (one I think was a huge flathead) 50 pound only when setting the hook on a dock pole.

OK, where can us mere mortals get these great spinners? I gotta get me a bagfull of these things. There are some dual side by side blades available from other manufacturers if SWL doesn't get one out to you quick enough. I personally have a ton of SWLs, but there are a few blades I use from other MFGs. For instance the old light wire Willy Wackers with the thin wire seem to get more bites than any other blade I've tried including the SWLs. The problem with the Willy Wackers is that light wire doesn't hold up. Two or three fish or one good fish and you can count on it breaking on the next one. Its great it if you don't mind throwing baits away all day long. A firend of mine came up with a really cool varient of his own design. An old style heavy wire spinner bait with the upper arm removed and a light wire arm crimped and then spot welded in place with a metal sleeve. The vibration of this bait is incredible. If I am fishing badly stained water or working through an algae bloom this bait comes out and gets slow rolled. A willow blade on this thing thumps almost like a Colorado blade on an SWL. A Colorado blade will almost jerk the rod out of your hands on the thump. You may eventually loose or bend the upper arm, but you won't lose a fish from breakage. Its an interesting comprimise bait with great charachteristics. Don't get me wrong. I like my SWLs just fine except for the rubber bands breaking on all my older baits and leaving the skirts laying in the bottom of my rod locker. I usually have two SWLs tied on at any given time. A light one on spinning tackle for submerged grassbed fishing, and a heavy one tied on braid or heavy mono for deep probing, searching, and fishig submerged standup trees when the crank bait isn't working. Anyway... I know how popular SWL is here, but but there are other blades and each has their benefit. Another example and one of the reason I had such a hard time coming around to SWL is that it fouls and snags when spinner flipping. Since flipping a spinner bait was the first thing I learned how to do with one that bothered me a lot. Back then in open water, grassbeds, and rocks my first goto was a crankbait, not a spinnerbait. You smack a tulie on the pitch or flip with an SWL and you have a 50/50 chance of hanging it up. Forget trying to drop it through floating cane mats. That is one of the techniques where an old heavy wire blade does a better job. Of course some folks will ask why in the heck I don't use a jig or creatre bait to flip those spots. Because sometimes the blade catches more fish flipped than a conventional flipping bait. I personally think anybody who does not have a dozen SWLs with various blades and skirts is missing a valuable tool in their aresenal. However, be aware that there are lots of other blades on the market and there are some things that others do as well or better. Oh Yeah.

say: "There are some dual side by side blades available from other manufacturers if SWL doesn't get one out to you quick enough.", but that won't do anyone any good.

Just a fortunate few have tried them so far -- a handful of SWL Prostaff,
guides, tournament anglers, outdoor editors, and dealers. We're getting feedback on their performance and plan to go to full production this fall and introduce them in the marketplace for 2007.

What John and Dan described isn't a new phenomena. If you search the tech
support forums, you'll run into this complaint pretty often, and rarely will anyone offer a helpful suggestion on how to work around it. I suspect that some ISPs block their users' access to our server. I've been told, although I haven't confirmed it, that an ISP has the capability to block specific Web sites (or servers). Usually, that occurs if the ISP judges them to contain pornography, speeches of hate, contempt, slander or defamation, or if they promote gambling, racism, violence or terrorism.. Our Web site is hosted on a server farm. They allocate a certain amount of space to us on a large server, which we share with other clients. We don't own our own server or lease a dedicated server. Therefore, it's possible that other clients of the same server farm have used it as a base for unethical or unsavory activities, and that ISPs have blocked us as a result. Then, too, our name (Secret Weapon Lures) might be enough to get us blocked. ISPs that are trying to protect (block) their users from access to terrorist or militant sites might figure we're a threat. We were contacted some time back by a person about purchases of military ordinance. He claimed to have gotten our name from a list of weapons dealers supplied by North Korea. Since we didn't think they were really in the market for high-tech spinnerbaits, we didn't follow up. Just goes to show that mistakes can happen. If you want to contact me privately and give me the contact information for your ISP, I'll email or call to see if we're blocked by them. Joe "Chris Rennert" wrote in message ...

On the flip side websites with a good interface with their server provider (cpanel usually) can block access by IP or blocks of IP addresses. Also, lots of scripts such as those used for running forums can block access to that script. -- Bob La Londe Fishing Arizona & The Colorado River Fishing Forums & Contests http://www.YumaBassMan.com -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |

I have more problems with their SHXXXXX service. Same results today as before. |

With other ISP's I have learned that open servers that allow a lot of spammers access also get blocked like that. I suspect that some ISPs block their users' access to our server.

Ok, but I think Charter would be hard for you to find a competent person to deal with. I call my one good contact to see what I can find out. Joe "Chris Rennert" wrote in message ...

Joe, you owe me an hour and 15 minutes out of my life. I called charter and no, it is not my computer. They don't know what it is yet. If it is anything like the problem with my news groups it will be about 3 weeks before it is corrected. {:O) Well, I tried! I'll keep ya posted.
