Thread: Does Profile actually matter ?

It has been said color don't matter ...
But , has it been said , profile don't matter ?
Keep this in mind , I DO NOT typically care for store bought baits , More often than not, my artificial of choice is created by an individual .
But once in a while a Big name bait gets in my way and in this case it was just that .....
Looked down at the dock and saw this here stupid looking thing laying in my path and the thought crossed my mind to give it a swim .....
Dropped said bait a few times ....NADA !
Moved to and fro a bit and presented it several different ways ,,,,,still NADA !
Finally it was about to get put back on said dock where it was found and I tried one last type of presentation before it got retired ......
seems if presented properly it will in fact ketch a few fish !
Put down deep and raised with some fluttering of the rod tip and then held still a second or 3 and then repeat , on the hold still be ready ....THUMP !
The fish that did bite it were mostly better fish and only one under bit it ....
It actually amazed me to ketch anything at all on it ....
to be quite honest I think in some cases a crappie is just stupid enough to bite about anything , not always for sure , but sometimes for sure yes ....
Go figure .....right ....
KABOOM is of course what I do ....but most folks already knew that ....
redundance is the way to get thru in some cases ,just saying
p.s. think it's called the joker , I might a been the joker using the joker ,if the that's the name of said artificial plastic .

One of my friends uses them big stupid umbrella looking plastics on a road runner head and does pretty well and his average fish size is typically nice as well …..
We sure rib him about tossing them golf balls at em …
