Went down and seen Chuck personally on a saturday to try and figure out what I needed to take my trolling to the next level. Sorry to say, I could not get all I wanted.
Discussed my options to best serve my needs, and settled on a three spreader bar set that comes with three matching and three different colored stingers, two daisy chains and a pin rigged islander.
With the different spreader bar stingers you wind up with eighteen color combination options, which some days may be all that it takes to catch,,,, if you figure out the color combo they want.
All the squid bodies have flotation in them, except the trailing hook squid, which has an egg sinker.
For my spreader bars, I choose Rainbow, Green, and White with a hint of Pink.
For the two daisy chains, I went with Rainbow, (can't have to much rainbow),, and pink, as I already have a green and a black/purple.
From the time of talking to Chuck, and the items arriving on my door step was nine days. Now with these nine days, the items had to be made as everything is made to order giving the buyer true personalization of the gear.
To really top it all off, Chuck is one hell of a guy, who will go out of his way to make you happy, and pass some of his knowledge off onto you.
So anyways,,, here's the pics.

The hook end of the stinger's and chains. A short length of cable to help protect you from being bit off

I have a couple birds i can add for the daisy's if i want, and for the bars, they'll be run off the out riggers so I can just adjust them till they are splashing on the surface.

I gotcha....I'm a big believer in the noisy factor!

A successful Capt. Once told me " Cut Those Birds Off, You'll catch more fishing"
