Lost my 1st.....

[66KingFisher]

Custom painted crankbait that is......That D22 crankbait that I repainted a baby bass design got hung in the riprap my first day of fishing with it, and I had no way to retrieve it other then yankin on my line.....and obviously that didn't work since its still at the bottom of the lake...lol....So today I decided to fabricate my own little lure retriever so I'd have a better chance of saving a hung up lure next time...lol. I've seen you guys build a few of your own so I thought I'd do the same using a 2oz weight a couple of screw eyes and some nylon rope.....fortunately the rope came on a nifty little holder thats gonna work great for my purpose.

Strangely, while I was in the hardware section of Walmart I heard someone calling my name.....I followed the voice till I ended up on the fishing isle but I didn't find anyone there.....but I did find a couple of new cranks to replace the ones I lost last time out, so I'm thinkin the Baitmonkey had something to do with this purchase. That and I keep hearing you guys talk about how good these KVD cranksbaits are...lol
