Fish.com Product Review
This is
a testimonial on our lures fished on Pipestone Lake in Canada this past
June from the guys at Customfish.com.
Ok...There's
a couple baits I would like to talk about in specific. The first are
products from bassfishingluresonline.com . Their Furry Fish Baits (Rabbit
Hair Lures) that implement rabbit fur are something that I'll be keeping
in my arsenal from now on. I STRONGLY urge you to fish these baits.
They do NOT sell retail but instead rely on web based business. We at
Customfish.com do business in much the same way and find it to be quite
favorable when dealing with a company like the Furry Fish Baits.
The wire
baits have a particular interest to me and will be put thru their paces
in the absolute pike-fishing test in late August on Great Slave Lake
while fishing for pike up to 50" at Taltson Bay Big Pike Lodge. That
trip is either going to make or break those lures, where typically patrons
will go thru 2 dozen spinners in a week and up to 20 Bulldawg muskie
baits. From what I have seen by throwing Furry's wire arm spinnerbaits
the action is incredible. Rabbit fur moves like a mad leech trailing
in the water. The hooks are seemingly very strong and durable. What
i really like about the baits is that they didn't skimp on the wire.
They use a very heavy guage wire and heavy duty terminal on these baits.
I look forward to putting these baits thru hell with a couple hundred
pike in the 36"-50" range.
We did
try a series of Furry Bait Co.'s at Pipestone Lake in Ontario for smallmouth
and we found an absolute winner! Their line of plastic/rabbit fur hybrid
baits turned into one of the best friggin' throw back baits I have ever
tossed back at a smallie that missed/followed another lure. I can't
think of a single smallie that I tossed a Furry Fish 3" crawdad on a
1/8 oz. Slider head jig that didn't hit it and take off running. It
is now my go-to plastic when the bass just don't want to cooperate.
I've tried these baits on my local high pressured river as well and
it payed off quickly.
The rabbit
fur jigs look like a real winner as well. I didn't give them as much
time as i wanted to because we were fishing rocks and boulder fields.
After I lost the first one I thought I had better save these for a place
near home where i can run them thru the gauntlet without getting snagged
in rocks all day long. But..from what I've seen they have incredible
action and married with some applied scent they should do quite well.
Tip: Place the soft plastic baits in a bag, pour in some salt, add whatever
fish attracting scent you like, marinate overnight..and WHAMMO! You
just got yourself a bag of nuclear powered plastic baits with undulating
rabbit fur as a teaser!! Now..here's the really good part. The rabbit
fur/hide absorbs the scent and salt and seemingly lasts forever. I have
some that I used for 3 days and still leaked oily fish attractant. The
combo of plastic, fur and scent was a no brainer and an absolute sure
thing for smallies..even post spawn smallies. Here's another plus: On
their website they sell fish attractant! I did not use their brand but
I highly recommend that you add theirs (or your own favorite) to the
baits a day before you throw. You won't be disappointed.
