To All Mirrorlure Fishermen

To all Fishermen who like to fish with Mirrorlure baits:

Many who use Mirrorlures are familiar with the 'hot pink' one that we use when water clarity is not perfect. This bait seems to 'glow' in the water and works better than most Mirrorlures in stained water. GOOD News....I spoke with Anthony Puglia of Puglia's Sporting Goods on Veterans today. He is willing to order a 'special run' of the 'Hot Pink' Mirorlures in the 'Halographic 3-D' sides if he has enough interest. Anyone who has used the new 'S' series halographic scaled side Mirrorlures know how well they work. Mirrorlure is willing to manufacture a special run of the pink ones which would be 'S52MRHP' but they require Anthony to buy a minimum of 60 on a special run.

If you would have an interest in the Hot Pink slow sinker with rattle Mirrorlure in the halographic 3-D sides, PLEASE call Anthony or his staff at his store (504-837-0291) and give him your name, phone number and the number of the 'S52MRHP' halographic side hot pink Mirrorlures you would buy. If he has enough interest to justify an order of 60, he will place the order.

I have fished almost EXCLUSIVELY in January and February to date with the Mirrorlure S52MREC (electric chicken) color when water clarity was very good.....the specks just could NOT resist this bait. Puglia's is the only store I've found that has these. Give them a try also.

Call Anthony if you would be interested in purchasing the hot pink Mirrorlure with the '3-D' halographic sides...

Why not just order from bass pro shop or go to amazon.com and order from green canyon outfitters or the mirrolure website says they sell them....Or just keep on catching with the electric chicken if its just as good....

Bullcoon, because NOT ONE OF THE SITES you indicate carry this model - it is NOT currently manufactured. MirrorLure will perform a 'special run' to make the popular 52MRHP (hot pink) with halographic sides that look like 3D and Puglia's will place an order (minimum 60 purchase required) if there are enough fishermen interested in buying them. The new hot pink with halographic sides would be S52MRHP (the S prefix means halographic sides).

I am interested and will call him. i really dont fish that bait very often usually in fall. how do you work it in this late winter time. Do you let it sink then slowly walk the dog back to you several feet underwater? also i typically really like to fish this bait from the shoreline back to boat in small bays that get to 4 feet deep. i have not fished it in canals before. any advice is appreciated. thanks - See more at: http://www.louisianasportsman.com/lpca/index.php?section=reports&event=view&action=full_report&id=187432#sthash.d0KnzsIC.dpuf

I've fished with Mirrorlures for many years. Although they are made in floaters (Top/She Dogs), suspending and slow sinkers, I prefer the slow sinker for fishing specks in the fall. The number nomenclature for the slow sinker is '52MR a two letter code for the color. The 52MR means it is a slow sinker with a rattle (R). The slow sinker will sink 1 foot/second.

Those with the halographic sides (3D) carry the prefix 'S' which denoted the halographic sides. As an example, this is the bait I've used most this fall and winter: S52MREC. This is the halographic side slow sinker in 'Electric Chicken' color - hot pink top, chatreuse bottom and pearl scaled 3D sides.

I throw the bait as far as I can (usually 30+ yards), count to 3 to allow it to sink about 3 feet, then retrieve slowly, then 'twitch it once', followed by another short retrieve, follow by a double twitch. Repeat this technique over and over. The specks will almost ALWAYS hit the bait on the drop after a twitch.

E-mail me at way2gopete@yahoo.com if you have any other questions.

I spoke with Anthony Puglia at Puglias today about how many Mirrorlure fishermen had called to place their order for the 'Halographic' sided hot pink sinking Mirrorlure. He indicates he has a little over 15 orders. He needs quite a few more in order to place an order for a minimum of 60 baits.

If you are interested in buying this bait on a special order, PLEASE call Puglia's at 504-837-0291 and give Anthony your name, phone number and how many of the new S52MRHP Mirrorlure.
