Rick, sounds like you had a great start. I have shared this methodology with literally thousands of fisherman, most of which have failed to properly present the bait in the presence of fish, and simply lose interest, and fail to build up any confidence in the lure, and quickly return to the tip toe/finesse approach.

Sunday evening I had my first chance of using a rfs. I was cleared to fish a 2 acre pond so took advantage. We landed about 8 or so 9" to 10" gills quickly and landed a 17" crappie!! We were using a 1/8 oz blue rfs tipped with 2 Gulp maggots. I too cannot wait to perfect this spoonchuckers lifestyle.

Soonchuckers happened to have the chance to fish a beautiful 1 acre or so private pond this late afternoon.We used some crawlers ,jigs and waxies and a 1/4 oz swede tipped with the wax.Bill I think I am getting the hang of this a lil better and pretty much have the correct lift and drop method as I could see the swede roll on the drop.

Was a mixed bag today of most small for their 7inch size gills,crappies , a few white bass and what I beleive was a carp just couldn't get teh hook in good enough to get her up to shore.

Hey fellow spoonchuckers was out this morn and used a couple different baits with some success on fryer gills. Used a diamond jig with little atoms tails and a hammered purple swede tipped with waxies.The gills hammered both but the swede by far received many more hits then the fish became uninterested around 8. This particular lake I dont cast for the gills I always do better just deadsticking with the occasional jig motion.

Guys ,what do you think is this a BG/SF Hybrid?

I haven't seen the maggots in this area yet. I have seen the red colored e-worms. Anyone tried the nightcrawler Gulp?

Comment by John Sheehan 39 seconds ago Delete Comment I also can not compare Gulp with real worms from my yard.
I have not found fish that were really interested in the Gulp and I think its messier than live worms and more expensive.I am still not impressed with GulpI'll stick with worms for now.
Comment by Lance A. Cashler on July 16, 2009 at 7:27pm
Alright. I used Gulp worms tonight spooning, and they certainly did not compare with nightcrawler pieces. Are other Gulp products better than the earthworms?
Comment by Lance A. Cashler on July 14, 2009 at 8:13pm
Alright chuckers, I scored with the spoon. Nothing big yet.
