Lovely writing. Look forward to the next episode.
A mate of mine showed me just how effective Big Bud could be one on the Welland. In an hour, he had three double to 16-8, the next day a 21 and six other fish on it.
The technique was to retrive very slowly, so the spinnerblade tapped on the beercan rythmically. Enough to drive anyone nearby on the p*** but clearly also stirring up the pike, which hammered it.
I have noticed, however, that surface lures seem to lose their effectivness quite quickly each summer; on virgin waters, they are superb, then everything dwindles away.
Or maybe I'm doing something wrong...
