Wore them out on the Fat Ika, Swim Jig, and Bull Gill swim bait! Unfortunately the fish fought back on this trip and I got a hook in the hand. Note, the way I removed the hook is not preferred, but I just wanted to get it over with!!



HUGE shout out to my friend Anthony Grimes. He pours his own plastics and does a great job at it. Be sure to check him out.

I had one hooked past barb in my cheek. I went to set a hook and low and behold it flew up and treble hit my cheek.. I was really lucky it missed my eye. Pulling that out sucked. All I can say is, I always wear glasses now just incase it happens again. Glad your ok!

Yeah, good thing it missed your eye...Yikes!!

Yes, the glasses are a smart move for sure. Just as long as the lenses are not glass. I have heard stories of the glass lenses breaking after being hit by a lure...not good.

Awesome video.
