JAMES GANG CEO ALEX JAMES GIVES A THUMBS UP WHEN THE FISH WERE BITING!

MID-SUMMER REPORT

Summer fishing is well underway. Unfortunately our 1976 Evinrude is no longer in service, so our fishing has been VERY limited this season. We did manage a few trips with our good buddy Kevin Martinek in Chippewa County, and on both trips we did very well. Our new Nest Raider skirted weedless swimjig was the deal on our first trip, and on our second trip a green pumpkin creature bait rigged a strange way by Alex and I got the job done! This blog will be limited on text and will be mainly pictures sent in by our customers and the anglers we sponsor as we haven't gotten out much at all. The Elk Mound High School team made it to the national championship on Pickwick Lake, Alabama. They finished in the middle of the field, and landed a 5 lb 15 oz GIANT largemouth bass on our new Nest Raider in "Mississippi Mayhem." These lures just became available and are ready to order in 1/4 , 3/8, & 1/2 oz sizes in about ANY custom color skirt and trailer pattern. The trailer on the 1/4 oz is a Kalin's Sizmic Grub, the 3/8 and larger version will have our red-hot BOOTYKICKER swimbait on the back.
