Anybody seen or heard about/from Mike?
His lures sure were great ... he gave a lot of expertise to making them

Something tells me he's still around...lurking in the shadows.
They were great lures during a great time of fishing DVL.
Here's the P-Shad and a custom Brown he made for me just before the Crowley openner.

Mike is the man. I have a custom made spoon he made for me on lake michigan, it kills the big browns. I too miss the old days. Man I am getting old

I still have & use some of Mikes lures also...
Mike has gotten so old and decrepit he cant fish anymore.
He hunts from the front seat of his truck (lazy butt ring).
Killing Coyotes is his Fav Hobie now??
He tried Square Dancing but his wheel chair was injuring to many other people!!!
Im sure he was heavily effected by all the paint fumes while making those lures years ago !!!

For his fans, here is a recent pick of "The man, the Myth, the legend".
Doing what he likes best....

I must say it is an Honor to see that people still think of me and my lures. I haven't made one in probably 5 years but I do miss making them. Maybe someday I will have the time and space to crank out a few. DVL_LOcal, thanks for the Pic man, I sold most from my personal collection so I don't see them very often.

Did you ever end up making the sacremento perch or tui chub color? Still think they would be killer colors to troll in the sierras

I knew his lures were awesome...but did he really shoot that poor coyote?
