First home made spinnerbait

Great job on the new PB! Is that the little side of the lake we fished?
MIBasser had it right, especially after you lose several spinnerbaits or expensive jerkbaits in one day you will grow to hate the pike. There are lakes around here where I will not use those lures just because you are more likely to catch a pike and break off than a bass. It's hard to find "big" pike, but they are wild and fun to catch, the 15-20" ones not so much. The one suggestion I have is if you are catching a lot of them get a boga grip (or the Berkley version) so you can grab them and get your lure back.
