Got it in the mail yesterday. Should be fun to try, have 4 days with Jaunita's in 10 days. Will let you know how it goes.
As always, the best lures catch more fisherman than fish

Cannot understand why you Girls have to have all those Fancy Lures to catch Cabrilla, Yellowtail, Dorado etc. Just a Piece of Squid, or a Salas 8 oz
and I caught all the Fish I ever needed plus some for the local folks!!
George I think the fishing Stores have discovered a good Customer. Special Lures!!!! You got to be kidding!

Skeet, join the 21st Century....No loner the 70's in Loreto or elsewhere.
In the 50's I caught 2 striped bass at a time on one plug, regularly. ot today, even with a piece of squid....
And no, "I ain't kidding". Great Lure.
And, by the way, I've changed the color of my tutu, it's now a hot pink...
Yeah, I'm quite the lady!
Always a pleasure hearing your "long ago" wit. Capt George

No Jerry...I got some at Squid Co in SD. You can get the best deals on these from Cabela's or Squid-Co, SD near Midway and Barnett. Hook, Line, and
Sinker or Fishermen's Landing in Shelter Island are other good places when passing through town to Baja. Salmon fishing was so-so early on at Windy,
but went north for other types. After I had left, I heard about a lot of seal problems offshore and in the estuary.

Good in the NW, too, Capt. George...
Very popular for many years on kings, cohos (silvers), and others. This photo shows a coho caught on a typical hootchie-rig from the San Juans off
Sekiu, Wash. Lots of Baja fisherman strike hits from dorado and other surface feeders on these producers.

As a commercial salmon fisher (troller) out Neah Bay, WA. I used to have hundreds of hoochies of just about every color or combination of colors on
board my boat. You never knew what colors would be hot on a given day, so I bought by the case.
We combined the hootchie with a flasher and a shock cord and clipped them on our wires. Anywhere from 15 to 25 setups on each wire and four wires, two
off each side.
On a good day we'd have a salmon on every hook, on a bad day we'd have a dog shark on every hook or a whole wire of salmon heads. No bodies, just
salmon heads.
