Those freshwater guys throwing $100 swimbaits for LMBs have to be nuts enough to do that. I balk at buying a $7 frog or a $10 pack of Yammamoto senkos. I get mad when a senko gets wrecked by a single fish! I may have also done some sketchy things to get a plug off of a lobster pot in the canal though. z-man and mikez2 2 DITCH TROLL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Mendez Posted September 21 Report Share Posted September 21 I offered to pay a high school surfer $5 to retrieve my Lucky Craft from the kelp. He jumped back in, got my lure and refused to take the money. Nice kid. R.R. Bridge Fisher and bdowning 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do what I do...When I go ice fishing, I check the shoreline tree branches for any gifts left by overzealous casting. I can't recall the number of $7 - 9 dollar lures I've found. Some I still use regularly (a couple Zara Spooks). ReeferRob and Mikx 2 I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdowning Posted September 22 Report Share Posted September 22 Also check the carpets of weed left on the beach after storms. There's often a little treasure or two poking out of the mung.. Gotcow? and Mikx 1 1 Pfantum Pfishah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still hurts too much. I have swam for plugs on pot bouys a few times, but never in the canal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldgoat Posted September 23 Report Share Posted September 23 In the good ol days we would row up to the trap nets and pick up the floating lures that snapped off and got stuck to the outside of the traps. Free plugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff270 Posted September 23 Report Share Posted September 23 When we were kids, we would sink sections of chicken wire with cinder blocks around where the "city" people would come to fish on our local pond.. In the fall they would draw down the pond to kill the weeds and we would go out and claim our loot. Pirates in the making. bob_G, z-man, curran and 1 other 2 2 Does anyone know where the love of God goes when the waves turn the minutes to hours?
