I started a soft plastics bait company this past august. So far it's doing good I have been getting a lot of positive feed back from the fishing community. I have gotten to the point that I am ready to branch out and pick up a few more store so I thought I would try my luck at hook 1 this weekend and fish a few days in the area. I received word that most people where fishing a warm water discharge for striper and doing well. So I made a batch of swimbaits that I have been playing around with to see how they would do. It turns out that fish really liked it and wasn't biting much of anything else. I hooked up with a guy named Chris Bryant that is on the hook 1 crew and on the feel free kayak fishing team. He got most of his fish on video including a 15 pound striper. I was able to catch a good number of fish nothing to big. My biggest was 24". I have a good time and was able to pick up a new store. Here is a link to the video enjoy and check out the baits on Facebook under voodoo baits and let me know what you think

Congrats on the new company, Feel free to advertise on here when ever you want. Do you have a website up and running yet?
Justin, if I remember correctly, you are from around Charleston? How is the the chemical spill going to affect the areas you fish?

Yes it is justin good memory i know I meet you at the meet and great but you couldn't make it to the river raid if I remember correctly myself. The water situation sucks from what I can tell it will be next week before I get water back. The fish won't be affected from what I have been told. I am gonna try to fish this weekend and try my prototype here in wv I hope to have the final product by next month and get it in store a week or two after. Thanks for letting me advertise on the forum. If I can do anything for u guys let me know I will be at the kbf open giving out baits if anybody is gonna make it and I will try to come back down and fish with you guys soon. If there will be a get together please let me know post it on my Facebook page and I will try to be more of a presents on this forum

might want to chat with Dwayne Lamb owner of captains quarters on SML. He carries a lot of local stuff and is the only actually bait shop on the water of SML. He's closed for the winter but next time i see him when he picks up one of my rods i will mention something to him if you want. He normally opens back up the first weekend of March.
