Hi Phil, Remember when I told you about using Pro-Cure and having my best day ever, in 25 years of hard-core piking, on some of the best pike waters in Saskatchewan. Well..... the planets aligned for me on June 5th when I finally had a day off from guiding at G&S Marina Outfitters on Last Mountain Lake. What an afternoon it was! We were in shallow water fishing Blue Fox in-line spinners for pike. I look Pro-Cure Minnow Super Gel and filled the hollow body of the spinner with gel and then smeared as much gel on the back-side of the spinner blade as I could. The result? 41 fish which is my personal best total of pike in one day after fishing Last Mountain Lake professionally for the last 4 years. 12 of those fish were over 38 inches and 9 were between 40 inches and 44 1/2 inches (40, 40, 41, 41 1/2, 42, 43, 44, 44, 44 1/2"). That is astounding by anyone's standards. I have fished and guided at Wollaston Lake Lodge, Saskatchewan which is a 5 star destination ranked in the top 5 monster pike destinations in North America and have never even heard of such a catch! The next day, my brother went to the same bay and the conditions had changed dramatically. The water temperature had dropped 11 degrees from the day before and the wind was howling out of the East with clouds and rain. Him and his friend, Mark Rathwell, persevered to catch 4 fish and what did they do to turn the tables in their favor and salvage the day with a 41" trophy for Mark (his first 20-pound-plus pike ever)? They lathered their pike-belly cut baits with Pro-Cure Trophy Walleye Bait Sauce that Jason has stashed in this tackle bag. Today, same conditions, terrible fishing, I am guiding in a boat with two anglers (Tim from Texas and his brother Josh from Iowa) and have two satellite boats in our party fishing around us. I use Pro-Cure in the Blue Fox spinners as I did when I was fishing with Graham and caught 3 out of the 5 fish caught by our party that day. Talk about tough! However, two of the three fish are Master Anglers, bookend 43" pike. The two biggest of the day for the whole lake area we were fishing and as I mentioned we were sharing the area with 7 other boats. So, here's to the Pro-Cure program on Last Mountain Lake. Tomorrow is another day (crappy weather) but I will sleep better knowing that sooner or later the fish have to eat and also knowing that with Pro-Cure on my lures any fish that we get our lures close to will know is there and with their mouths watering will hopefully strike and strike hard. Attached are pictures of Graham's 44 incher (flash photo), my 44 1/2 (ugly looking bearded guy), Mark's 41 incher, Tim's 43 incher and Josh's 43 incher. Jeff Matity

PHIL’S NOTE: Jeff Matity is on our pro staff, so we didn’t feel it was fair to enter his entry in our contest. However, there is so much great information for serious pike anglers we sure wanted to get his comments and photos posted.

Hi: I am good friends of Gary with Shasta Tackle, and last weekend I went to Huntington Lake above Fresno Calif. We used Gary’s sling blades with your garlic/night crawler gel and just nailed the rainbow trout, we had a blast. Thank you for such a great product.

Hello Pro-Cure, I’m sending these photos to you of the kokanee we caught at Flaming gorge. Both fish are not close to the new lake record, but they are still two magnificent kokanee. Both were caught using your Garlic Plus Super Gel.

After 4days of relatively unsuccessful fishing for springs on the Skeena river using natural roe I finally went to the Tackle Store and bought some Pro-Cure Egg Cure. On the 4th night we sprinkled some Redd Hot Double Stuff onto our roe and the next morning we caught 3 springs before 9 am, including this 30pounder. Pro-Cure saved the day!

Hey Guys, we were fishing out of Newport Oregon last week and we had all four of our halibut in less than an hour. Two were caught injecting herring with Butt Juice, and the others we caught injecting with the Garlic Plus oil. After limiting on halibut we trolled back to Newport and limited on Coho salmon. We were dunking our spoons in a mixture of your Chartreuse Glow bait oil and your pure anise. The Coho would not leave it alone.

I was bait fishing with a slip sinker and cut bait with Pro-cure Krill Super Gel on it when I caught this 19 pound lake trout. I was fishing Flathead lake in Montana.
