yes the shop across from Sure Shot - is Big Mike's Baits. His cell number is 770 608 1480. Really nice guy.

I bought some foam poppers etc from him last month before a float trip down the Tallapoosa. I didn't catch much, I discovered that I had to do a lot of paddling and not much fishing. But Mike is a really nice guy that deserves our support.

I tried a Clouser at a school of spots last week, to no avail. I was throwing a pretty big one, from my 9 weight, it was all I had in the truck when I saw them.

I have read about the Cowen Something Else and Near Nuff, hopefully I can find somewhere to buy them. He doesn't have them on his site.

This was about the time of year when I went with David Hare last year, he says it's when the the stripes get shallow enough for a fly. Please post if you have some success!
