I've had other BPM baits kzbin.infoUgkxCbNOWAGmn6nfbCbJDmasvBq7J38KZNw2 before and they've pretty much always came through for me with the suskie smallies here and even with the walleye and pike, but I realized I didn't have an "in-between" pattern so this junebug one fills that role in no problem. it pairs up magnificently with a junebug Zoom Z-craw Jr that was trimmed a couple millimeters before the hook slots and rigged sideways for that fatter panfish side profile while still being a nice'n'compact presentation, a real power-finesse bait. Hell, it was so pretty I even bothered to fotosketch the pic into a watercolor painting image just to show you it's beauty! Even the blades are really well made, sure, they're not of Hildebrandt-level exquisiteness but look at the bead's reflection on the colorado blade, definitely well-made! The only "problem" spot it had was a bald spot in the skirt but it was nothing that I couldn't easily fix with a but of tuggin'n'shiftin' with the strands for a couple of seconds, besides that it is pretty minty!

I'm honestly a bit confused why no one ever made something like the Buzz Stick, it seems to make so much more sense than just a buzz bait and being able to have it float for pauses and change of pace is a great idea. That sub is on to something with that lure. I never throw the buzz bait so I know what I'm doing in my garage tomorrow choppin up some buzz baits and spook jr's. BTW you need to drag the pole under that grass every time you pass it that's just cool to see. Definitely would make a great series.

This unnamed river is the model river for every Dept of Fish and Wildlife in the country. Clean, free flowing water, abundance of crawdads, hellgrammite, freshwater shrimp,and chub minnows, wild green vegetation rimming all of the shore and bank lines, and most importantly, a 100% catch and release river, all season. Then you have a river like this; twenty five to thirty five 17-22" smallies every fifty yards of river!
