CH owes NH an apology. They had the first no lead law.

 

FN FB Group is the best-I like that it is small. I used to belong to about a dozen fishing topic groups, quit them all. When groups gain big membership in come the AH’s with attitude-Ultralight Fishing Enthusiasts for example

A very detailed geek out.

 

SteelShad Bottom Blade-a new twist on the old Silver Buddy-bass of all species, black bass or temperate bass will pick a blade bait laying flat on the bottom.  It is a good lure for when baitfish like shad are experiencing cold shock die off or when white bass and so forth are smashing baitfish on the surface, a lot of crippled shad or shad parts drift down to the bottom.  But to mimic a feeding shad SteelShad has a stand up version of their blade bait. The lure body can swing up and down within the head weight thus standing up on the bottom like a feeding baitfish. It gains some extra rattle too.  SteelShad has a lot of great designs including glow in the dark models
