#458, "RE: New Bait - MS Slammer XX" In response to In response to 1
Yeah you pretty much guessed it. Mike is now making lures full time so he's able to branch out a little bit. He made double jointed plugs with bucktails a very long time ago but never sold them. The first time I ever met Mike at Margarita he had them in his bucket but I never could wheedle one out of him ;)
Basically people at that time weren't willing to pay would it would cost him to make two joint baits, so there was no point in making them available. With bait prices through the roof, he can get enough for them to make it worth while. I'm excited to check it out, especially as a night bait.
