Flatlander Invasion to the Baystore 5 weeks away

Well we are little more than 5 weeks away from the Flatlanders invading the Baystore. We have a few new faces as well as a whole cast of the old characters. Frank, for the benefit of the newbies, could you please pull up the post that lists the "Top Ten LOTW baits". I tried to search for it but apparently my computer skills are lacking. Look forward to seeing the Baystore gang and it's newest member. Does that annoying neighbor still come by and aggravate the guests? Hope to see him anyways, he always makes me laugh with antics. :p

Steve

The annoying neighbor died and went to h***.The newest member will chew your leg off.Frank isn't any prettier.The lake is low.The top 10 baits in no particular order are:
The Fly'n Fish by Yummie
Gopher Bait
Lazy Ike(52 caught on one already this year)
Swim Shad
Spoonplug(5 inch)
Red Eye Wiggler(4 3/4 inch)
Eppinger Frog Spoon(6 1/2)
Silver Minnow(pork optional)
Sluggo(9 inch)
Jitterbug(large)
Very glad to hear 'new faces' are coming,some were growing old.
See you soon.:)

New faces? On the same old bodies? I look forward to seeing this.

Think about it, I would think that list would be slightly dated with the new stuff made available since then. My new (quickly constructed) version?

1) Favorite Double 10. Cowgirl, Gerry's, Spanky, etc.
2) Ace Tandem.
3) Hellkat, or old Bulldawg.
4) 9"-10" Suick
5) Twitchbait. Big Game, Big Fork, Stalker, etc.
6) Headbanger.
7) Top Raider or Nitewalker.
8) Jackpot, Doc, or favorite walk the dog.
9) Smaller bucktail. Bucher 700 sized.
10) Hellhound.

Thanks for the great input. 9" slugo, now those are hard to find.;)

What the heck is a Headbanger? Not sure I know what that one is.

Steve

Headbanger is one of my semi-secret weapons.A front prop surface bait that Frank should NOT be selling even though I like the idea of a few bucks going to the maker-and especially his wife!

What is a headbanger? lets see a pic

I'm too good to you guys...............

What the he** is a headbanger Mr Pearson? I don't see it in your top ten baits. Shame on you!!! Mr Frank won't let you use any of his BAT's. Right Frank?? LOL
Dick; Maybe if you take me out one night and show me some hot spots when Lynne stays in the eve, Maybe I'll hook you up With a Bat or TWO.
Be there July 18-29th.

Jim Dembiec...
Oh Frank, Lost a 50+ last week on one of those BAT'S, redeemed myself with a 48" 3 hours later!

Jim,
Deal.However,for selling your baits,I'll take you to Franks hot spots.;)

Sounds good; Let me know if any of your headbangers need attention. Dick will probably be salivating watching those headbangers hang in the bait shop. Hopefully they won't last long!!! I've been winding down making these things. But pouring lots of BAT's...BIG A$$ Trailers..;)

Franks Hot spots eh! :rolleyes:

Respect your elders,send Bad Ass trailers.

And yes,a few Bangers need work.As usual.

Frank, PLEASE set a Headbanger aside for me when I arrive. I have never met Jim and Lynne but I am well aware of their Muskie prowess. I believe they hit Pewaukee quite a bit. If Frank were for some reason to sell all these out, I will just permanently borrow one of DP's, although I will probable have to tune it and sharpen the hooks.:p It is only a little over (4) weeks away until we arrive. Looks like you folks have been getting some rain so hope the water level improves a bit. DP, better get the bell all shined up, I suspect a Flatlander or (2) will be ringing it again this year !!

Steve

Dick; Why did you wait so long??? Send them to me, then you can pick up at Youngs when I get there after 7/ 18.

I will have an extra headbanger with me if someone needs ONE.
JIM

Just have to be honest,touch any of my Bangers and the last thing you may hear is the early decibels of 'bang'.
As to the bell,not sure the walleye guys returned it but hope you guys ring it a lot.I still think you should cause its,not your fault certain 'mooners' are inept with the net.For what its worth,I think it was closer to 52 than 50.

Jim,
Just got back to the cabin minutes ago.Can't send you any,they are all missing!Thought the one in Franks pic looked familiar.
Oh well,just send me a couple.:)

You lost or left in the Dakota's With Mrs. Betsy? She could send them out. When are you going home again? September?
You lucky Man!!!;)

Hopefully the fish trashed them all!!! Anything memorable on them last year? You might just beat Frank to the punch, unless he buys them all!!!
