Robby, our pastor preached a sermon 2 weeks ago about only one of the ten lepers Jesus healed ever coming back to thank him. Don't want to be one of those other nine guys! Thanks for making this "white bass bait hub" a one-stop shop for folks, and for including my business in it.

I enjoy doing it and finding out about all the new stuff out there.

Robby, in all of your researching for this "lure hub" you've created, have you seen any Texas-based small businesses (or at least a small business of some sort) that makes a lure similar to the Acme Cleo?

I ask because I used to catch another member of the temperate bass family, the white perch, on a similar spoon (no longer made) when I was stationed up north in the 90's. Thought something like this might be a good substitute, and wanted to stick with buying from other than big box stores.

Here's a generic photo of a Cleo:






Thanks!

Bob sorry for the delay in getting back to you. The two below are what I have found. Let me know if thats kinda what your looking for. I enjoy reading your reports.

There used to be a guy named Johnnie (I think) on here that custom made slabs that worked great. I'm down to 1. Chartreuse on one side, white on the other and with little eyes. He made flys too that i'd tie above the slab to double up. Anyone know what ever happened to him? He lived close to Eagle Mountain Lake.

Johnny passed away
He made the ole ugly slabs and flies
Great man always willing to let you know where the fish were

That's what I was afraid of. RIP

Oh yea sandjohnny!
One of several great fishermen I have met and respect.
Rest in piece.
