For local San Diegans....
For those of you who have made orders and followed through on your end, and showed up with your payment and to collect your order, thank you! Your honesty and commitment is appreciated.
Unfortunately, not everyone thinks that me making a ton of baits and driving around all over the place to meet them is a big deal. I have given the local people a chance to make orders without paying a dime until their order was ready. This is no longer the case. I recently made a post stating that I would honor cash/bait exchanges as long as the customer follows through with their end. Since that post it has happened 4 more times. I will no longer make baits on anyones word that they will show up at this place and this time. From now on all orders will be paid through paypal or payment can be made by cash/check/money order through the mail. The only other way I will meet up with locals is during our meet and greets which will be happening once every 4-6 weeks, or if they decide to travel to me wherever I am at to pay for their order upfront. All orders that are being picked up will take place either at Harbor Island in San Diego Bay, or at South Shores in Mission Bay. The only exception for baits being picked up is if the customer wants to travel wherever I am at, if I am available.
This might sound like a hassle, but I ask you to put yourself in my shoes and please understand how frustrating it is for me to spend hours making baits for a single sizable order, and then get the run around or no response again from that person, or to show up at agreed meeting location and wait forever and they never show up. It's plain rude and I am done with it.
I apologize to those who this may inconvenience. Please email me with any questions you may have about this issue at tclures@hotmail.com
THE NEXT MEET AND GREET
Saturday, February 26th between 9am-11am
Harbor Island in parking lot across from the Hilton Hotel
I will not have too many baits on hand for sale, whatever I do have will be sold at regular prices. Those who make pre-paid orders(cash only) will pay $1 less for each pack of baits. The meet and greets are mainly for people to come out and meet us, and to see what our products look like, and maybe get a little fishing in :) I hope to see you there!

January 2011 Winner!
This nice calico bass was caught by Christopher Caaway using the razor clam swimgrub. This makes the third consecutive month the photo contests were won while using the razor clam swimgrub.
January's photo contest winner was a tough one to pick. There were a ton of nice looking bass caught and several of them were in the same size range. The only thing that really stood out was the fact that you dont catch too many legalish calicos from the shore, espescially quality ones such as the one pictured here.
Thank you to everyone who sent in photos, keep them coming! Just a reminder, though measuring your fish isnt required, if you can it would help me make my decision for a winner a little easier when there are so many to choose from.
