Check it, for the new BOOYAH Covert Series / Christie family secrets — gotta click it and go to the BOOYAH site to see it work. Very cool plus it makes sense cuz every spinnerbait in that series is built for a specific set of conditions:

‘Nother great thing about this deal is it’s gluten-free….

Hahaha! Say that as a GF eater. Had to switch cuz my son for-sure can’t eat gluten — great way to lose the LBs and feel better too, believe it. Good excuse to eat more grilled protein too…. #traeger #biggreenegg

Few get through so gitcha lawn chair and yer favorite juice box, and just watch the parade go on by:

Check Tim L.’s tourney derp at Cowan Lake, OH — helped him get 3rd! Brown jig with a Strike King Rage Craw (gp):

Trevor R smacked him this eastern WA jut-jaw on a Dirty Jigs Tour Level Pitchin’ Jig (PB&J) with a Missile Twin Turbo Double Tail Grub (cinnamon purple). Said: I think the key is a long pause…the derps are a little slow to react.” HAHAHA love it!

Derps are in Guntersville! JD O got his first one ever on a Mann’s 20+ crank (grey shad) around old barge pilings:

They’re in Chickamauga, TN too! Matty M got it on a 1/4-oz Molix Kento Jig with a craw (both white). Said, “Cant tell you how excited I was to finally catch a derp….been wanting to catch one for the BassBlaster. Caught one during practice for the Bassmaster Open…I geeked out a little bit. Bubba was released and swam back to docks to chase more shad. Hope he tucked the bottom lip in so he wouldn’t get snagged on a dock crossbeam.” Hahaha!

Canadian fishin’ legend Bob Izumi got this Big Rideau, ON derp on a 5″ Berkley MaxScent General (gp party). Said: “Since you started posting derps I’ve been on the hunt for one…sort of like seeing a unicorn!” Dang straight! #derphunter

Jeff C was Neddin’ on Broken Bow, OK with a Z-Man Finesse TRD (“the deal” color) and said: “So pumped, my first DERP!” That’s what it’s all about yo!

This one’s so derpy kinda looks like a…trout? Hase R said: “Been wanting to snatch in one of these forever and finally did.” Word! On Table Rock, Bass Patrol Football Jig (PB&J) did the deed:

Little derp collage for ya:

> L: Josh P dropshotted this KS small-derp with a Strike King Half Shell (KVD Magic).

> Top R: Somewhere in WV Jerod H got this derp Jr on a 3/8-oz Accent River Special Spinnerbait (white/chart).

> Bottom R: Lee E got hist first derp at Lake of the Woods, MN/ON/MB on a homemade Plopper.

More n a few bass-heads sent this in from an Oneida Lake, NY FB page — do smallies swim full-speed into rocks?? Before you answer, look at the next one….

AR fishologist Jeremy R shocked and tagged this’n from Crooked Creek — shoulda gone on the wall man!

Whoa that’s a bunch. Still workin’ on the derp sticker for anyone who’s gotten their derp in a Blaster. Will update ya when it’s done….

1. Rig it sideways?

Maybe you do this already but not me:

For when the “busses” (Google translate for “bass” plural) are tough to catch: “…if you do this, it will fall like a circle….”

2. Decoy slide weight

How’d you like to use any hook you want for a weighted hook, and put the weight anywhere you want it? Like this — and there’s a way to attach a blade too:

TW has some Decoy stuff but not the slide weight yet.

3. Fish Arrow Flash Vib

Yep, “Vib.” Blade bait head for soft-plastics, though not sure if all soft-plastics will fit or stay put. Cool idea tho. More about it in this TW vid:

Here’s the pic Gerald Spohrer posted…

…but someone sent me this shot from “that trailer no one’s allowed to go in:”

Gerald’s face is a little messed up there, maybe cuz of whatever that machine is doing? Couple weird things:

1. G-Spo said he thinks he passed out while Boyd Duckett was asking him questions. He asked how long he was in there, Boyd said 5 minutes. Gerald’s watch said…37 minutes.

2. G-Spo had just had a dang good day and thinks he remembered they videoed the whole Q&A. He asked to see it, and everyone denied doing it.

3. Brandon Palaniuk asked Gerald why he got polyed. G-Spo said, “They always poly you if you do good one day.” Brandon’s like: “No they don’t….”

Not sure what’s goin’ on man, but sounds kinda like the time Trip Weldon polyed all those guys in AL just before his team trail started….

KIDDING HAHAHA! But…makes you wonder, don’t it?
