Killin' It Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 This is what happens when I LET the wife go to the tackle shop with me. She wanted to pick some flashers and flys out and look what I came home with............
strik Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 she might be onto somethig. Could be the hottest thing in the box. let us know how you make out I have never had luck with a pink spoon:o but then again the wife does not shop often with me. Best of Luck Strik
sslopok Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 Is that one of the pro trolls that is offered from Michigan Stinger with their custom paint? Looks like a winning combo to me. Pinks are king in the summer for Saginaw Bay walleyes. I am taking my wife and 2 young girls to gander mountain to do some shopping tomorrow. I will post up what they pick out. I bet it will look like what you bought:) P.S. I am only buying from gander because I received a few gift cards for my b-day:)
BIGTREBLE Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 That is true, my wife has picked out some of my best spoons. Like Miami Dolphin, F-N' wiggle and Pink Alwive.
Priority1 Posted March 13, 2011 Posted March 13, 2011 Pinks have worked for me in the past. A pink Jig with a white tail was one of my go to set ups for river jigging. Pink has always been great for steel and eyes.
eastcoasttransplant Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 I agree that the fly will DEFINITELY catch fish....particularly high steelhead. Now while I'm not a straight pink fan, I bought two watermelon flashers for fishing in the upper water column. My suggestion is this.....run the flasher and fly as a combo in the upper 40 feet during late spring and early summer and I think you'll be surprised.
eastcoasttransplant Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 Oh BTW....my wife has helped me develop bright coho candy flies and often picks winning spoons too, even if they are on the gaudy side for me. If we want to get them involved, we have to let them pick stuff too, and how many times have we picked lures that bomb too. I think this year I'm really going to start pushing using the lures my wife picks. Heck, she ALWAYS catching the largest kings anyway so maybe she's onto something.
mj6131 Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 My wife made me go back to D&R Sports Saturday afternoon, because I didn't pick up more spare planer boards at that good price.She's a keeper!
OK Bill Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 My wife seen your pictures. Now she wants them. Thanks LOL
