To my angst, one of the outdoor mags ran a story on the best baits of yesteryear...but my favs were not even mentioned!! I REALLY must be old. lol

To this day I fish with a chrome (smaller version) Devil's Horse and a 3/4 oz black jointed Jitterbug in the late afternoon on those Spring and Summer days. There's no better way to end a fishing trip, I guarantee it.

Because the baits are no longer used by 'modern sophisicated fishermens' the bass don't know what it IS and that is why they just TROUNCE it from time to time. Nothin' else like it.

You can still get that particular Jitterbug at BPS but the little version of the Devil's Horse, well, they're just not around anymore, to speak of.
