Always test your hooks after sharpening them. Do this by inserting the
newly sharpened hook into your nose. Then tie one end of line to the hook and the other end to a 10 story high balcony fence. Lastly, throw yourself over the balcony. Let us know how that works out for you. Jeff "Lure builder" wrote in message ... Can sharpening hooks improve inferior hooks on a lure. It is a pain changing hooks and hard on the pocketbook too. I was thinking of going the sharpening route but not if it is pointless. |

Sorry William,
Lurebuilder (AKA) Alice, has to be retrained everyday. He is untrainable and unlearnable. Yes he has been posting stupid questions to this board for over 4 years and continuously asks the same questions only worded differently every few months. Am I kidding? Not just no but Hel_ no. That is why he is not liked very much around here. He is the newsgroups version of the village idiot. Only for him it is by choice. Not by birth or heritage. "William Barger" wrote in message ... You're kidding right? Right? |

I am glad I hit home with that one. Got your hot button did I. I think it's
about time you grew up and flew the coop. "Lure builder" wrote in message ... Illinoise Fisherwoman That is why he is not liked very much around here. He is the newsgroups version of the village idiot. Only for him it is by choice. Not by birth or heritage. Hey bud make like bird and flock off. |

Now that is just...stupid.
Lure builder wrote: Not to be a dullard, there is a point to this fishing thread tied to hooks. "If you are stuck with inferior hooks can they be improved through sharpening ?" As a metaphor if you are attached to a woman, who might be named Barb, can things improve or is it necessary to do a release. |

Eric
Not too soon. I'm still waiting for the new lure I ordered from Al. I think the shipment date should be coming up in the next few weeks. Insomnia is rearing its ugly head. I can't wait. ------------------------------------------------------ Eric Please be patient you are on a backorder list. Also i'm very busy now fishing and i'm sure you understand. Also there is a bit of a snag in the production process. I've temporarily lost my shop due to a major cleanup and a domestic fight over workspace allocation. I'm sure you understand such things, The main thing is the R&D and the paper plans have been done. So again please be patient and even though my costs are escalating they will not be reflected in the selling price of the lures. I have quite a few others on the backorder list so please everybody be patient. Also i'm open to new orders since there is a certain economies to scale in this whole process. Charles could you please quote this so Eric can see it since he has me on his killfile. |
