All fishermen have hopes of catching big fish, and catching lots of ‘em. They read all the fishing magazines and spend hours on the water searching for a hot spot. Let me break it down into its simplest form. To catch a big fish, you must get the big fish to bite your lure. Fish bite because they are hungry and because they view your lure as the next meal. A lures effectiveness is gauged by the amount of successful strikes it triggers. There is the magic word, TRIGGERS. Not only does the lure have to look life like but it must trigger a largemouth or muskie to strike. The Banjo Minnow can help transform you into a fish catching machine.

The famous infomercial fishing sensation is back in action for 2009. The Banjo Minnow has a few numbers behind it and is now the Banjo Minnow 006. The body of the soft plastic jerk bait has been engineered to mimic the action of a dying minnow. This erratic and spastic action is the magic TRIGGER that makes big fish bite. It is basically ringing the dinner bell and signalling all the fish in the area that an injured fish is out in the open and ready to be eaten.

Fishing the Banjo Minnow 006 is as simple as it gets. Just cast it out and twitch the rod tip while reeling in. You can slow the retrieve and fish the bait through the entire water column. It is also a great idea to mix up the speed and twitching action. This adds to the action and the realism of a dying minnow. An injured minnow will dart and dive quickly as it heads towards cover. During this time it will expend a tremendous amount of energy and need to rest. A short pause is all the incentive the big bluefish needed to strike. The Banjo Minnow 006 recreates this action with unbelievable realism.

For the remainder of June anglers have a great opportunity to try this incredible system. Wayne Hockmeyer, the inventor of the Banjo Minnow, is offering a 110 piece kit plus and instructional video. The Kit is over flowing with proven fish catching sizes and colors. Everything you need to get out start catching more fish. The offer is only available through June so you do have to act now!

The secret of the Banjo Minnow is in the action. Predator fish like bass, trout, walleye, bluefish, speckled trout, red drum, spanish mackeral, snook, smallmouth, pike, muskie, flounder….well I think you get the idea. These fish are programmed to act upon opportunities and never pass up an easy meal. The Banjo Minnow triggers this attack mechanism and helps you catch more fish than you could ever imagine.

Flounder Rigs

Flounder are an extremely popular game fish.  Countless numbers of anglers in boats and on surf try there hand at flounder fishing each year.  The inlets, surf, and piers of North Carolina all hold good numbers of flounder.  Doormats are the perfect ambush feeders.  They are designed with the best camouflage to blend in with the ocean bottom.  Big flatties also adapted further by having both eyes on one side of its body.  This allows them to find a suitable spot and lay in wait on the bottom for a meal to swim by.  A suitable spot would be an area near current that would provide a steady supply of food.  This could be a slough off of the beach or an eddy behind a pier piling.  The flounder will nestle itself into the sand and out of the current while watching for a small finger mullet or menhaden to be swept by in the current.
