Slammer and shellcracker fish from last night.
Slammer and shellcracker fish from last night.
fished from 9:30 - 12:30 last night. Had a couple nice wacks on a 7" slammer and shellcracker which is gone by the way after I had one snap my 20# test last night. I think it was hung up in my line and had every hook in it because it was struggling to jump and I couldn't get any any control of it. Just a rod bending and lots of splashing. It was dark so assuming it was Bass.
tackle used was XH setyr , calcutta TE gT , with 20# Mcoys mean green
I went back this morning and combed the 30 acre lake looing for my shellcracker but I didn't see it.
Here are some pics

I've been fishing it the last 6 weeks and haven't had one suttle hit. They crush it, in all types of water, from clear to muddy. It's a nice and small wake bait at 5" . The durability isn't anything like a 3:16 though. Mine was starting to show wood back by the tail. Still swam straight and clacked.mps19913 wrote:nice catches! i just ordered the Shell Cracker in Red Ear Floating...How is it??

Lubina, you know where to get MS slammer tail replacements? I don't feel as confident with a Fin-s nailed in for a tail.Lubina wrote:Very nice NJV.

I would call Mike Shaw directly ( 435-586-0853. ) I've talked to him a couple of times and he has been very helpful and nice.njvbass wrote:Lubina wrote:
