Lure: Black Fury
Fish Caught: Bass, Largemouth - Bass, White - Crappie (Black)
I have not been shut out using this lure. I have had two of these lures one black tail with yellow dots and one black tail with the different tinted green dots(Hot Firetiger) and both have been quite successful in landing nice size fish.Lure: Aglia & Dressed Aglia
Fish Caught: Salmon, Coho (silver)
The power of this small simple lure is amazing. In a low and clear stream, the #0 with silver blade was perfect for presentation around snags to fish that otherwise would be spooked by larger lures. With this one lure, we caught native Grayling and Rainbow Trout as well as the smaller Silver Salmon that ran up the stream. I never had to change my lure for the entire week unless I lost one on a snag.Lure: Aglia & Dressed Aglia
Fish Caught: Trout, Lake
The #4 with silver blade and plain single hook is excellent for catching Lake Trout that have moved up in to the shallows early in the season or late in the Summer when the spawn begins. The lure is light so will not spook them when casting in shallower water and you can keep it off the rocks which is where you find them!Lure: Spin Flies
Fish Caught: Trout, Rainbow
This is an amazing lure! I can use any other types of spinners and catch 1 out of 10 - 15 casts. With the Spin Fly, it's almost every other cast!I have been using this lure for about 6 years now and will continue on for MANY MORE!Lure: Aglia & Dressed Aglia
Fish Caught: Pike, Northern - Trout, Cutthroat - Trout, Rainbow
I cast my Aglia upstream, let it sink and a huge northern just hammered it.Lure: Musky Killer
Fish Caught: Pike, Northern
Went to Canada one year with a group of guys that had been going there for years. I didn't have probably the best equipment as I didn't know what I was getting into, but I did bring with me a handful of Mepps Musky Killers in number 5 single hook. I took a little abuse from the guys as they all had a lot better equipement and bigger stuff. By the end of the week I had boated a lot of the big fish. Mepps is my absolute pick, I love throwing the Tandems in the Musky Killers. Thanks for making such a good product and thanks for making my Canada trip one to remember. Did I mention I could carry all five in a small zip lock bag. Thanks, SteveLure: Aglia Ultra Lites
Fish Caught: Trout, Brown
Well what I thought that fishing the Minnow River was going to be a loss, it all turned around after 20 minutes of spinning in bright sunny conditions. Fished a 1km section of river that I haven'tLure: Aglia Ultra Lites
Fish Caught: Trout, Brown
Decided to go and have another stint of spinning in the Minnow River again this afternoon and it was another fine day on it too. Great weather conditions once again greeted us so headed to one of my other overgrown areas of the river. After bush bashing my way there I slipped into the river and started spinning my way upstream using the same #00 gold Aglia and it wasn't too long before I had my first fish. This one didn't have the bright rich colours like yesterdays fish but it was still a nice solid brown at 460gms. As I fished on, I had another few hit and misses over the next 100 -150Lure: Aglia & Dressed Aglia
Fish Caught: Bass, Smallmouth
Today using the gold bladed size 2 brown tail Mepps Aglia, I caught a smallmouth. It was an amazing fight. The fish jumped over 2 feet in the air 4 times. The gold blade is amazing when it's slightly overcast or you're fishing under a tree. The fish ended up being 1.5 pounds 13 inches. It may not be big, but it's a whole lot more fun than catching tiny sunnies.Lure: Comet Mino
Fish Caught: Bass, Smallmouth
The water was getting really low and really clear. Therefore getting harder to catch fish. So, I went to one of my favorite spots along the Schuylkill River and I casted a size 1 Comet Mino. Before this, I never caught a fish on it and was still to be convinced. On the second cast, I got him. He gave a pretty good fight for his size. He came out to be around 10 inches. It may not seem big, but its average for the river I fish. Also, it's not the size that counts, but the fun you have reeling it in.Lure: Aglia & Dressed Aglia
Fish Caught: Bass, Rock - Bass, Smallmouth - Bluegill (Bream, Brim)
With these lures I almost always catch a fish(there isn't a large population of fish where I fish). I only have 5 different colors of the size 2, but they're all I need(unless I lose one). I caught the largest and most hard fighting freshwater fish of my life with a size 2 silver blade brown tail dressed Aglia. It was a 16 inch smallmouth(where I fish there isn't a big food source so that's just about as big as they get). This bait must of made the bass strike out of agression because when it hit I literally got mad because I thought it was a snag. Too bad I didn't have a scale with me(probably 2+ pounds.) Also when I got the lure out, I pulled all the dressing off the tail:( When I'm fishing for bass, sometimes, I get a real nice sized rock bass and they hit and fight hard also a really tough fighter for it's size. Again, I think they bite out of pure agression or they are just REALLY hungry. Hope you catch something "wait", let me rephrase that, "catch something big." You won't regret buying this lure. I've tried rooster tails, but the wire is cheap and bends with some of the smallest panfish. Another thing wrong with the rooster tail is that I found with some you have to dry them off or they rust with in a couple of weeks or so. Aslo it can be hard to make the spoon spin with them, but the Aglia's once they hit the water they start spinning.
