Top 5 Rockfish Lures?

ha!  John I bet you'd probably hook something on that... at the same time you were fixing a drain, no less!

My top 5 are as follows:

1) 3.5 oz bunker mega bait with 5/0 VMC siwash
2) 2.5 oz bunker mega bait with 5/0 VMC siwash
3) Papa Bill plastics w/ orange tummy
4) Rootbeer Scampi
5) Live blue

If you want tomake your own megabaits this guy has nice looking molds...

send him flowers or take him to the movies and he'll show you how it's done 

You, "Peninsula Boys," scare me..... 

OK - Who's up for a "Combo wrench" subdivision at one of the tourneys?  Or a casual MBF tourney?

I think a homemade lures bottom fish MBF would be awesome!

By homemade I mean using items found around the house. Not things like my plastics etc...

Hmmm....I wonder what I could dig up from the barn.

Actually a wrench tourny would be awesome! Hit up harbor freight for some cheap wrenches.

Yeah I have a nice little 4" crescent in chrome.......

I have made a few irons out of old knife handles after reading about that topic on this site.  No hits on them yet on these but I have only tried them a few times.  I have had some success with rockfish hitting some home made shrimp flies (yarn, red wire and gold ribbon on siwash hook).

I think we could take this MBF idea one step further.... supply everyone with the same small pile of random items (like paper clip, wrench, teaspoon, bit of yarn, etc..) give them a half hour to make lures and then a couple hours to fish with them.  The list of items would not be given out ahead of time so improvisation would be stressed and awards could be given for the biggest fish as well as most interesting lure that actually caught a fish.

Good idea Brian. We have he HMB event and the Elk event and we could do it at either or both.

Another idea is the "one wrench" contest. Everyone goes out with the same lure. And only one of them.

I love this site.

I have a pile of old flatware that would work great, the knives and spoons are really cool.

Heh heh heh. I love it.  the "one wrench, one fish" tournament . That is a great idea.
I think the combination of  arts n crafts & fishing is fantastic.

So what wrench are we going to use?
