I use wooden coat pegs when i want make few easy lures, they are inexpensive and easy to find. These lures are pine and only good for top water. I showed a few examples of designs and for the mouth of the lure. Have fun, experiment!
There is nothing more exciting than explosive topwater action, and you’ll be sure to get plenty of that with the Sea Dog. Due to its hefty size and aerodynamic shape, this top water plug has the ability to reach fish beyond the breaking surf. Its buoyant cigar-shaped body allows it to be effectively worked in challenging conditions such as strong currents and heavier seas. Equipped with 4X VMC hooks, heavy duty split rings, and thru-wiring, it’s built to take abuse from the toughest game fish in the sea. Whatever you pursue, Striped Bass, Cubera Snapper, Giant Trevally, this lure is perfect for “walking the dog” on the surface for aggressive feeding game fish.
This video shows you the brands of line that I chose to go with for 2011. I talk about the importance of buying good quality line, I discuss the best brands on the market. In this video I feature a new product that I picked up, the Rapala Super Line Scissors. Please check out www.bassfishin.com to print out your free line guide. This is what helped me make my choices regarding line diameter and category (Mono, Fluorocarbon, Braid, etc.)

Happy Bait. Highlights from the first day of serious fishing. Captain Jeff joins the guy from reelreports.com and gets into the little snook pretty good.
42 inch 25+ pound fish Catch & Release Striped bass top water Fishing MA Crane Beach Ipswich Essex 5/22/10 not the first fish of the year but the biggest year. Started my spring fishing with some nice striped bass riding the outgoing tide. This big striper Came up and gulped the jumping minnow down on the first cast. What made this fun was I the rod. I used a 3/8oz – 1oz Temple fork salmon pole 8’6″ or TFO rod. This was not as fat as your avg late season fish but at 25p it was fun fight on light tackle and even bent the vmc hooks. What you are experiencing is a very good tool that if handled right a competent can land very large fish and make fishing for smaller fish that more fun!
