It's a custom spoon I painted for a friend a few years ago.

Picaridin Insect repellent. The brand we use is made by Sawyer. All the boats in my area are using it with good results. I can finally wear shorts again. Charter boats claim they haven't lost any clients since they started using it. We buy it at Walmart or online.

Awesome, thanks for the reply.

Good looking spoons. Could you tell me what you used for a clear coat to make spoons durable?

Rabble Rouser Angel Eyes      A little known vintage bait that was popular for Steelhead and walleyes.

The Corona Bandits were good on Erie last year.

I like the story and appreciate wanting to take advantage of a deal but much better with the arrow removed. I have a house full of taxidermy but wouldn't want to memorialize a bad shot and an animal suffering.  

Probably take a lot of flak for my opinion but it actually makes me sad to look at an injured animal in agony trying to pull a misplaced arrow out with his mouth.  I know you didn't make the shot but I wouldn't want it in my house. JMO

Walleyes typically attack lures from the side and more often than not on multi hook lures are caught with the front or side hook in their mouths.

Fake News.

I believe the blank has been discontinued and was a 2 5/8". The first 4 in the photograph look like Hi Tech spoons.  

Been using the West Marines for two years for planer boards with no problems.  We adjusted them on the lake but would recommend doing it in the slip.  There are West Marine's for sale on ebay at 15 - 20 dollars each under "adjustable rail mount rod holders".
