Some of the finest lures made are for the muskie fisherman, a lot of them are
handcrafted, they can be very pricey, names like believer, joe bucher, leo
lures, eagle tale, sledge and suick,.i know of a bait shop that carries them
and i was going to take a look at them, would basspro carry them, basspro is
coming in Nov, i've never been to one, i was wondering if a slightly downsized
version of such lures would be good for bass, would there be a high end market
for handcrafted wood bass lures,

I target mainly smallmouth. I've seen them surface to hit my jointed rapala.The
jointed rapala is always smaller than what i would use for pike. Pike will go
after a 2 lb or better fish. the lures i use for pike are larger, muskie are
not presently my target but they would be in the same category as pike, muskie
lures are known to be larger, i have a whole box full of them, i guess thats
why i am saying a downsized version for bass, i'm not convinced that the high
end market is as developed for bass as it is for muskie, of course i'm speaking
of handcrafted wood lures

Warren, That's funny! When I was out there last month, I was looking
through John's custom lures for big bass....I would have been proud to
have some of those "lures" mounted on my wall :)!

"basspro" or "Outdoor World" won't put up with your ****. Stick with your
favorite chain store who will tolerate your fraudulent returns...

You must be a glutton for punishment. Every post you make, no matter how
inoffensive, results in catcalls, derision, and taunting by a bunch of
yahoos, and when I try to defend you in a very small way, or put them in
their place, I get the same. The hell with it. You're on your own.

This newsgroup is more a personal message service for about a dozen
people
and the occasional idiot who never posts unless it's to hack on
Lurebuilder, with the neverending threads asking/answering the same
questions week afetr week.

And fwiw, all the bass I've ever caught fought less then a perch half
their length and 1/4 their weight. You can have 'em.

You wanna talk killfile? Here's my killfile--
I'm deleting this group from my favorites. There are other fishing
newsgroups less snobbish than this place.

And since I know it's coming but won't be reading it, good riddance to
you too.

I never really caught any perch that fought hard. Now bluegill, that's a
fish. Pound for pound the toughest freshwater fish there is. Simply
ferocious.

This group never came across that way to me. Maybe they used some
voodoo black magic and brain washed me. I'll have to ask my counselor.
I have to see him anyway...the voices are back...

I suspect the bass supposedly caught were just that much
smaller than any perch.

While I agree about bluegill being the toughest freshwater fish, it is a
member of the Sunfish family (along with bass) and people often mistakenly
call it a perch.

Warren,

You'd be amazed at the numbers of bass, both largemouth and smallmouth that
I catch every year throwing muskie lures. Sometimes it is true that big
fish do eat big lures.

BUT.....the flip side is equally true, you couldn't believe the size of fish
that eat small lures.
