FISHEN1 Smolt Registered: 01/09/02 Posts: 89 Loc: Tacoma	I have thought of buying some GSB's but I have never seen any pre-tied. I assume 50# test leader would be best. What size hooks do you use?

ltlCLEO Repeat Spawner Registered: 06/15/01 Posts: 1104 Loc: brownsville wa.	I would have to agree with you on the illumination at night too.Thought I was the only one. I have also seen large blackmouth chasing the candle fish neerly up on the shore in tracyton.Schools of them,running through with there mouth open.Talk about making your heart beat!Probably witnessed this ten times over the years.Never could catch one though I think it had more to do with being in such a state of panick that I would forgett how to function,just shake!

WaderBurps Parr Registered: 01/22/03 Posts: 40 Loc: Everett, WA	Chappy, are thoose jigs made by yozurri or some name like that. If so i've seen them, they look kinda funky. Havent used any but i'm sure they work, at least as good as a buzz bomb.

Downriggin Repeat Spawner Registered: 02/28/02 Posts: 1189 Loc: Marine Area 13	JR, Save some money and tie your own GSBs... Q-Tip for a tube Glow in the dark Krystal Flash (full) surrounding the tube White (or polar bear) Fish Hair of the top Peacock Krystal over Fish Hair Prism eyes...epoxy. To get the shape of the head, lift up top wings at a 45 degress angle, place a drop of super glue at the head and let dry. Use 2 coats of epoxy. First one as a filler, second coat over the eyes.... That should save at least 3 bones.... _________________________ "If you are not scratchin bottom, you ain't fishing deep enough!" -DR Puget Sound Anglers, Gig Harbor Chapter

Ratherbfishin Juvenille at Sea Registered: 12/18/00 Posts: 150 Loc: Bainbridge Island, WA USA	The Canadians got me hooked on Teaser heads and bait. You can troll a herring or anchovy in a helmet for a long time, doesn't get blown out like a plug cut. Anyone else in the sound using these? _________________________ Spent most my money on fishing and beer.... the rest I just wasted.
