Big Hammers work and are alright, but I like my baits BIGGER cause Big Hammers tear to easy and I prefer to target toads only.


Why are yall so butt hurt by that statement. 

Craig- whats your deal that twice your post some bs.  Your so 2-faced it aint even funny.

I will be more than happy to see yall guys talk shit to my face and see where that gets you.

Anyways, my fishing does the talking.


dude really....just take it down a notch (or 5). I think we'd all appreciate it. We get it you are awesome. A little modesty speaks volumes. You remind me of this guy.

Example of name calling.  Don't do that.

I will be more than happy to see yall guys talk shit to my face and see where that gets you.

Example of threatening behavior.  Don't do that.

Anyways, my fishing does the talking.

Actually it seems your fingers do the talking.  And in this case, they went too far.  Knock that shit off.  Consider this your only warning.

As of this writing, I've caught 31 halibut this year and 30 have been on Big Hammers.  Not bragging just making a point here.  I've caught these fish on about 12 different patterns which somewhat supports my theory that the pattern/color isn't what counts, it's the BH action. 

BH's are soft and tear after a fish or two but that's the price of doing business.  Can't complain if I'm catching and the proof is in the pudding.  The top getter patterns for me have been: Anchovy, Pearl and Chartreuse.  This may be because I've used them more than the others.  6.5 inch with the Andy1976 - 1.5 ounce jig head (mostly red, some white).  Hope that helps somebody

You are the rf masterbaiter  :smt005 so I use what you use.  :smt008

Heres is my take on BH...dont need to say anything..
Live today for tomorrow's sake.
We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.
