around 1:30
decided to move back towards the coves and try shallow water. We had
been killing them on Senko's but even they would not work in the shallows.
I went back to my go to bait (SpotSticker!!!!) and within the
next hour managed to come up with five plus to culling fish
to end up with 9.30lbs and 3rd place!
Just wanted
to say thanks again for making a great jig head! With some past
advise from you and Ryan I've become pretty good with the SpotSticker and it
has saved me several times.
God Bless
and have a great Spring!

Greetings!
I was one of the guys with the
Cobb County Ga club that didn't
catch much on Saturday as the
crankbait bite went bellyup with
the heavy rains on Friday
night. When I saw you at our weigh in, it
kind of clicked on my mind that
I needed to go a small jig/worm for
our day 2 on Sunday. The only
rig that I had was a old fiberglass 7
foot rod ( an old Clunn
crankbait rod that sucked as a casting rod)
that had an old cardinal 4 with
6 lbs test line on it. Using a 1/8 oz
slider with a 4 inch worm on
Sunday I kill the fish in shallow water
and walked away with first
place with over 10 lbs (four of them
football sized spots), with the
biggest one pushing 4 lbs. Also I
didn't know it at the time but
our Saturday winner with over 9 lbs
used your 3/16 oz spotsticker
jighead with a zoom fitness worm. I
had lots of fun with such light
line. I noted on your website that you
guys have rods for sell. I
think I will find some spare bills and buy
me one of your 7 foot rods
since we fish a lot of spot lakes and
most of the guys in the club
live and die with the carolina rig fitness
worm. This weekend was a wakeup
call for my spring time fishing
techniques. Time to learn
something new!

My friends in Bama (Donnie & Glen):

I know by now, after all of the business I have sent you, both of you
guys are millionaires, probably basking on the sunny beaches of the
Bahamas!
Just wanted to drop you a line (no pun intended) to say thanks for
your friendship and for introducing me to your Spotsticker products.
The Spotsticker put me in 4th place (Co-angler division) in the
Everstart Eastern tournament at Lake Martin in February 2003 and is credited
for my 15th place finish (back seat competition) at the BAMA BFL on Martin
in March 2003. In fact, I think I might have converted my boating partner at
the Martin BFL to the Spotsticker. Just as we classify some baits by
shape or presentation method ("stick-baits", "crankbaits", "jerk-baits",
etc.), my partner initially wanted (jokingly) to classify the Spotsticker as
a "sissy" bait. Two limits (and a few culls) later, I think he was ready to
start calling it a MR. Sissy bait and before the day was over, I believe,
(secretly anyway), he was calling it a confidence bait!
I will be field testing your new Spotsticker Spinnerbaits (SSB) at
Eufaula and at Santee-Cooper over the next couple of weeks. If the SSBs are
as productive as the Spotsticker Jig, don't worry about shipping my next
order - I'll send a tandem dump to pick it up!
Good fishing, Good health and God Bless our troops who are laying
their lives on the line to protect and preserve the freedoms we enjoy in
this great country in which we live!
Donnie,
It’s been a year since I last fished Lake Martin. However I still had a
good supply of your Spotsticker jigs in both 3/0 and 4/0 sizes. My club
(Pensacola Hawg Hunters), held a tournament there the weekend of March 22,
2003. With a BFL event going out of Wind Creek, I decided to fish in the
lower areas of the lake. I had only fished there once before. However I
found fish in the coves and on docks. I was the only one in our club to
weigh in limits on both days of our tournament. I also won it. Every fish
I caught on Saturday was on the Spotsticker and several of my fish on
Sunday came on the "sticker". Several other members were using the
Spotsticker and they caught good fish also. My partner didn’t want to try
one and opted to fish T-rigs. He only had 2 fish on Sat. Just wanted to
let you know that the Spotsticker came through again for me. Thanks for
the info you share in your posts. It is really helpful to those of us who
don’t have much experience in those waters.

Before I left for AL from NC I talked to Glenn
Hammer and Donnie Sims about there Spotsticker jigheads. I ordered 50 and
Donnie sent them to me. As I was ordering them over the phone I had my
credit card out getting ready to give Donnie my credit card number. The only
thing he wanted was my address. He didn't ask for any money. He told me to
send him a check when I got the jigheads. You don't see this much in the
world we live in. I used the jigheads at Martin and caught 98% of my fish on
them. I was fishing points, drops and brushpiles in 20' to 25' of water and
combining the jighead with a Zoom Green Pumpkin fineese worm. I also got the
opportunity to meet Glen and Donnie at the tournament. I was very impressed
with there jighead, but even more impressed with Glenn and Donnie. They are
top notch people. If you are heading to Lake Martin get you some Spotsticker
Jigheads and go have some fun! God Bless and Good Fishing,
