I am first and foremost a fan/alumni/former athlete of McNeese. McNeese is by far where my heart is. I'm just sick and tired of the people like him who are lsu "fans" because they live in LA. They refer to lsu as "us" and "we" when they have never stepped foot on the campus. The same people do not support McNeese just because they live in Lake Charles. Isn't that the same principle? I even see lake charles natives that are McNeese alumni that run around in their mike the tiger start up gear. I wear McNeese clothes because I went to school there. People like him wear lsu clothes because they went to academy. It was just my low blow to him. For those of you who actually are lsu alumni, have a children that are, etc., my apologies ( to both of you)!

PS
I don't know what lsu losses you are referring to. They have never lost a game. They only get screwed by the officials from time to time. Sorry for getting off topic with this thread. Now I'm officially down to his level.

Have you guys tried the Endura Shrimp. It's made right here in Louisiana and not in China. Take a look at them on EnduraLures.com.http://www,enduralures.com

More pics from facebook page.

Looks like that weighted hook should be coming out the top (back) for the lure to run true.

Only shrimp lure I use.....they last forever and hook is strong.

My vudu's melted in the tackle box before I got to catch a fish on them, chalk it up to neglect I guess.

And the hooks are terrible. They look sweet in the water and they catch fish period but I straightened the hook on a 2lb trout.

I don't understand why someone would send shrimp to the taxidermist - but he did a really nice job.

Yep... You would think for $4 each the hooks would be a little stronger

With all do respect, all you do is bust everybody's ball$ and talk about how you and your equipment are the greatest around. You literally have an OPINION on every subject on this site (really, search posts by W). you are single handedly ruining this sight for me. Sad thing is, according to the pics you post, you appear to be a really good fisherman. The poor guy just asked a question, and not your personal story. Sorry W, just had to vent.
PS
ROLL TIDE!!

Agreed. I fished live shrimp last weekend in grand isle while my girlfriend fished the TKO. I caught fish and so did she. The nice thing about the artificial is the ability to cast hard and not have to go to the livewell..

If you want scent just spray the TKO or put them in an empty Gulp bag before you hit the water.

They look good though

I agree. The address on their site says Williams boulevard and that's only a 5 minute drive from where I live. I emailed them asking if I could stop by and pick a pack up to try.

Montauk, does anyone in the Lafayette area handle them? Thanks

[SuperDave]

Ok I heard back from the maker and he said I couldn't come by and pick up a pack because of scammers. I said no problem ill order online.

Sucks because I'm fishing tomorrow and Monday..

You give him money, he gives you baits. What kind of scamming could possibly go on?
