we have something a little bit new with the carrots we have two colors that run vertical so half of it will be white the other half will be red or any other combinations they look fantastic and we will post some pictures later on I believe these little guys are out doing some of the hottest baits on the market. Is I believe the baby Shen Stinger has taken a backseat in the new Star is about to be born.

Ya I believe your right...I think they will sell VERY well....but I tell ya the shad stingers are still one of my favs....but they will be sharing time with the carrots that's for sure....now when I get to a spot and unzip my bag I'm torn on what to use a carrot or a shad stinger ha ha ha

The new red/opaque carrot is indeed awesome Bob. I will be field testing the 1.5" minnows, 2" stingers, 2" carrots and the Jilly Jelly baits tomorrow at Guntersville Lake with Slab and again on Thursday at Neely Henry Lake with my pastor. Should be a lot of fun. We will fish some without adding extra scent. Others, we will use an attractant. We will put Slab sauce on some, my own mixture "Yippee" on some and tip some with a wax worm for scent. I should gather a lot of data this way. I will also fish some with an underneath blade attractor and some without it. Might be able to put a great pattern together that way to take advantage of the fishing conditions.

Yippee is made by mixing cod liver oil, sardine oil, kayro syrup, anise, garlic salt, and p- nut oil together. Put in a spray bottle and lightly spray on the plastic bait then toss it in the water. You will catch more and bigger fish and yell "Yippee"

I noticed that you had chickens running around you must live in a country I also noticed a small windmill in the background I have one exactly like that it looks nice wherever you live there though smoker craft my good friend had one for quite a few years they are a nice boat you will really enjoy it they are definitely fast in the water he used it a lot for walleye fishing in the Columbia River you need a fast boat there because of the wind will come up and blow you off the water and you have to be able to get out of there in a hurry.
