It's been a while since I have been able to post a fishing report due to lingering health issues. I have a quarter sized hole in my left heel that has refused to heal but i remain optimistic about it getting better in 2013. I 've partnered up with Joe Smchidt Aka: fishinChristian to you walakers and we have been busy designing and creating a number of new fishing jigs for crappie, bass trout panfish and walleye. My trip today was a spur of the moment jaunt out to Granger pond to toss a couple protoype jigs around like my 2.5' Dragun-Mite Tripoid Trout killer jig. The Dragun mite didn't dissapoint. A fiesty rainbow about 13" hit it on the second cast on the drop! A little later I put a glow 1" Flaptail Crappie Nymph (For ice fishing) on my Loomis slip boober set up and proceeded to haul in a couple of very fat pregnant yellow perch , a bluegill and 3 crappie to about 8". While not a banner day, it did a lot to ward off the cabin fever blues. I am estatic to report that Crappie World Magazine, Winter Edition 2013, has featured my article - The Jigmiester, in a 6 page spread featuring my custom made jigs, fish photos and crappie catching tactics. I also recently sent blufin loui some of my Rufus Woods Triploid special jigs and I am eager to hear his latest field test reports! Barring my medical issues, I plan to attend the upcoming Sportsman shows in Yakima and Spokane by securing a booth where I can share my baits with my fellow fishers here on walakes> Guys can try my custom lures with a rod and reel first hand in demonstraton tanks. Thanks again brothers, 2013 looks to be a break out year for the Jigmiester!

Hey, glad you got out. Hope you kept that wound okay. We've got a pile of fish to catch. These lures are great, and sharing them was your idea. Remember, I wanted to keep them to ourselves. Kidding, sort of. They'll sell themselves. So, how many thousand lures you want at the show? Bless you and those who read this. Crappie World is great. Used to subscribe.

Coretron22: It's where everything in the universe resides: Amazon! Not kidding.
