5. Baits Not Being Talked About |
|
Make sure no fish escapes your reach with the deadly Jewel Baits Scope Spin! Designed to be the ultimate solution to the challenge of targeting wary suspended fish, the Scope Spin allows anglers to navigate nearly any section of the water column with a natural, horizontal approach. The full-ounce lead body not only helps anglers launch their spinner a country mile and have it plunge quickly but it also clearly shows up on all types of forward-facing sonars for an undeniable edge on the fish – and the competition.
The Jewel Baits Scope Spin shoots out of the packaging equipped with outstanding hardware to ensure effective, reliable operation every time you fire off a cast. In addition to the shad-shaped body that delivers a horizontal fall, it also anchors a custom-designed spiral willow blade that beckons to fish with a shower of light and vibration. The Scope Spin also relies on a durable wire arm and sticky sharp treble hooks to haul your trophy fish up from the depths and over the rails. Completed with baitfish-imitating color schemes and 3D eyes, the Jewel Baits Scope Spin helps put any fish you can see in range! Check out the full lineup here,

Lake Mead Access Reaches A Crucial Point |
|
Recreational anglers and boaters have expressed concern that some proposed changes to Lake Mead’s boat launch operations could effectively ban motorized vessels from the water.Recently, a detailed Lake Mead/National Park Service newsletter announced a “plan and environmental assessment for Lake Mead National Recreation Area to provide strategic direction for the future of motorized boat launching and related commercial services, and infrastructure needs at five (boat launch) locations.”
The newsletter lists the option of removing boat launch ramps at five lake locations — Hemenway Harbor, Echo Bay, Callville Bay, Temple Bar and South Cove — which has members of the fishing community concerned that the park service is planning to end involvement in boat launching. This could leave local businesses to foot the bill for maintaining ramps, which have become increasingly hard to keep open with falling water levels. Costs could rise significantly for any private boat ramp operators as the situation worsens. Learn more about the current hurdles facing Lake Mead here.
