Re: Nog's Needle - The Good News
Have you ever thought of modifying it to a jigging lure. I used to guide out of Campbell River years ago and besides my old wooden Lucky Louies for trolling, I used to nail loads of coho and springs on a lure called a "Stingzilda". I don't think they make them anymore, but for bottom bouncing they were about the deadiest casting lure I've ever come across. Beat hell out of the buzz bomb, and with a single hook I never snagged a fish. Looked a lot like your Nogs Needle. Good luck with it Nog. Looks like a winner to me.
It's only when you see a mosquito land on your testicles that you realize there are other ways to deal with problems than violence.
