we are 'the leading edge' HSO Creators Rick Posted October 13, 2002 we are 'the leading edge' HSO Creators Share Posted October 13, 2002 Hey widetrack,looks like you can call the Toll free number above to order your single color Angel Eye packages.Just a note, I heard from several very good LOW anglers that the Hammered Gold Angel Eye was a real hit on LOW last winter. Can anyone else confirm that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curt quesnell Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 I used the pink and white, and never reallymoved off of it. I heard the hammered goldwas very good tho. Imagine that, hammeredgold working on Lake of the Woods. (grin).To anyone who thinks the Angel Eye is toobig, think again. The Jr is great but theoriginial AE is fantastic for Walleyes.Widetrack, I'm glad your question FINALLYgot an answer. I knew you could buy anycolors you wanted at your favorite tacklestore but, I was unsure about buying bulkin specific colors.Curt Quesnell[This message has been edited by curt quesnell (edited 10-14-2002).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

widetrack Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 Hollyberry, RickThanks for the info on ordering single colors... Hammered gold on Lotw, day in day out will consistently produce fish year around.Personally I've found the larger AE produces nicer fish and perhaps keeps the pesky 6-8 inchers from bothering you... Although they still will to some extent. The hooks on the large AE also stand up a lot better than the smaller version.Great hook...I'll be ordering a few cards worth shortly.Thanks.

Scenic Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 Fiskynut:Sorry but probably will not happen this year. I may look at this for next year. Several other people have made that same comment. IF I do you have been chosen to field test them for me!Good LuckJeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KING Posted October 15, 2002 Share Posted October 15, 2002 I'm with Widetrack on this one.Since mid-winter last year the full size Angel Eye was my number one producer. Hammered gold and specifically the Hammered Gold with the red on it was by far the best of all the colors I used.I will agree on the fish size also, I seemed to be able to lure larger fish up off the bottom. I would dare say my average size fish caught has improved since using this lure. I have made many skeptic people fishing with me beleivers rather quickly.Like I have said before if they made a larger version I would probably use that. This is usally not much of a finesse lake. Ex. 1 1/2 oz sinker and 12lb test make most walleye fisherman shudder, not here though. It would also double as a great pike lure.Won't catch me fishing without one on.

Guest Posted October 17, 2002 Share Posted October 17, 2002 I just seen an artical featuring the Angel Eye Spoon in this monthsNorth American Fisherman.

chunkytrout Posted October 20, 2002 Share Posted October 20, 2002 OK OK OK, I'm sold but I want 'em for trout. Anybody use em on trout? You guys tip these angels or run them bare? You'll have my order soon Rick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
we are 'the leading edge' HSO Creators Rick Posted October 20, 2002 we are 'the leading edge' HSO Creators Share Posted October 20, 2002 Yes,Jeff of Scenic Tackle told me about the article, he was pleased to see it as well.Sounds like NAFC really loves the Angel Eye as well....Anyone else read the article in North American Fisherman of NAFC.

Scenic Posted October 20, 2002 Share Posted October 20, 2002 Chunkytrout,I know some guys are using the Angel Eye Jr’s for Rainbow and Brown trout while others are using the Angel Eye Regular series for Lake Trout both thru the ice and trolling. It is my understanding that they are casting the Jr’s or letting the current take them down stream with good results. I am not much of a trout fisherman but I did throw them in a trout pond at a sport show with excellent results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 20, 2002 Share Posted October 20, 2002 Well a Goldeye/Mooneye is not a trout, but they have a lot of the same habits and physical characteristics. I have been using the JR's over the past season on them fussy dam Mooneye and I have caught easily thousands on them. The gold and metallic/glow colors have been the best for me. What I found is you need to swap out the treble hook and replace it with a tiny wide gape Kahle hook for best hook up results on Mooneye and trout. The jaw of a trout and a Goldeye lends best to this style of hook. I also have good luck on crappie and perch with this style of hook. Especially if your tickling the mud in the deep winter and the fish get fussy. A tiny Gamakatsue colored circle hook on a FireLine or light 7 strand wire drop leader also works wonders below an Angel Eye JR, or the below the full sized model for bigger game fish. The Angel Eye is a very good drop and drag rig for perch stuck to the mud. I like stiffer line on the drop link for drop and dragging, as it will not mess up on the main line near as much, the fish do not seam to care. They kick out far enough to the side to get a long drag to entice a wary sumo perch into slurping of the pinched off minnow. (A Great tip for DL in ND folks! ) Yup-Yup, great lures, all year long! ------------------Backwater Eddy..><sUMo> Backwater Guiding"Ed on the RED"(701)-281-2300[email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 Jeff or Rick I purchased the AE Jrs last year but with the poor iceconditions on the east coast I never had the oppotunity to try them. Do you guys bait them at all with perch eyes or mousies during jigging or dead sticking? thanks in advance for the information Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim W Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 mako,I had great success tipping them with just the head of a fat/head. I am positive other minnow varieties will work as well!Great spoon and I better get on the ordering band wagon soon as well!!!Jim W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardhat Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 I just ordered a 12 pack of Angel eye jr's. I live in central PA and am going to us them on a lake that produces alot of perch and crappie. The fish in this lake like to shut off around noon and turn back on at dinner time. I hope these lures will produce all day long for me. I will let you guys know how they work here on the PA lakes. Thanks for all the great info. even though I am so far away.

Scenic Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 Mako,I normally tip the Angel Eye with either the head of a minnow or a whole minnow depending on the reaction of the fish I see on my locator. I always begin with just the head of a minnow but if I see fish come in and look but not take the lure I will put on a small minnow that is double hooked thru the back. I have at times also used wax worms or mousies. When using either I will place one on the hook to hang horizontal and two on the hook to hang vertical. Even a slight jigging motion or current causes the vertical baits to act as “flippers”. For dead sticking try hooking two of the barbs from the treble thru the back of your bait.Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fiskyknut Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 I like to bait mine with the front 1/3 or so of an Emerald Shiner. I then take and mash/pinch meat and guts from the remainder of the minnow into the splitrings and swivel that I attach it to, then I wipe my fingers off on the edges of the spoon, depositing the scales and gooo all over it! I also like a peice of florescent vinyl tubing on the shank of the hook, ala scyclops spoon.Fisky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bturck Posted November 1, 2002 Share Posted November 1, 2002 Boy is it time already to talk ice fishing? I guess so. I got into the angel eyes late last year and can honestly say they were great on LOW. Copper with red and plain copper, as well as white/blue caught lots of eyes and sauger. I would recommend them any day. Jeff call Stop Light Bait in St Cloud they indicated last year to me they would be interested. As far as anybody in St Cloud carrying them right now, I don't believe there is. Scott S would probably be able to answer that question for the initial poster on the page. it won't be long now, Bill Turck St Cloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scenic Posted November 5, 2002 Share Posted November 5, 2002 Yes it is that time again already. Hard to believe I know but I for one am looking for a great winter fishing season this year. Last winter just went way to fast and I did not even hardly get a chance to be on the ice. Not going to happen this year!!! Glad you did well on the Angel Eyes last season. We do have a couple new colors this year, Red Neon Glow, Glow/chartreuse and straight Glow. All colors requested and tried by fisherman last season. These are available in both the Angel Eye Jrs and the Angel Eye.Thanks for the contact info.Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 12, 2002 Share Posted November 12, 2002 I was at scheels and bought some angel-eye jrs to try them! They are cheaper to get them on the site you would save around $11.00 for 12 of them!!!!!! Id say get them here!!!!!! The site is cheaper.------------------FISHSTUNNER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curt quesnell Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 Great idea Rick,Anyone out there remember the scramble forAEs and the JRs last winter. It was a frenzy. A couple of bait stores near Lakeof the woods put out cardboard signs whenthey would get a few of Scenic Tackles finest in the door, they would sell outin minutes.Dont be afraid to buy a bunch of these atthis price. Share em with your buddys orhoard them all yourself. If the demanddrains the supply again this winter you wontbe left out in the cold.This winter you can stock up early and notworry later.Curt Quesnellps....'Christmas times a commin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
