DaKine,

The word is that the hardbaits will be coming back on the market. When? When Jerry has time to make more I guess. Keep an eye out this fall. A lot of his lures go to Japan which makes getting them in the US kinda tough. Pricing was $100 for the 12" previously. I don't know what it will be when they come out again.

Cody, I don't know much about browns but I'm packing a 12lb baitcasting rod, 2 7" Slammers, and the 7" Generic for my trip this week to Mammoth Lakes. I figure I'll just trolling motor down the banks and pretend I'm fishing for bass. Who knows, maybe I will get lucky. I know it's a bad time of year for browns but maybe one will be up cruising around for some reason or another. At least I'll be the only guy doing it :-)
