Anglers Marine 22nd Annual Bass-A-Thon brings out the Big
Baits! (continued)

Mattlures: Mattlures products are designed and created by Matt Servant, a
devoted freshwater and saltwater fisherman who has been catching trophy fish in
the highly pressured Southern California waters on his own handmade lures for
years. As well as being a lure maker, Matt is also an accomplished taxidermist
who incorporates the knowledge and experience of both trades to create extreme
detail and quality in the lures he develops.

Matt shows us the new production
version of his Hard Bluegill series
Earlier this season we previewed the upcoming hard Bluegill Series in
Alabama. The lures are now available and were being sold at the Bass-A-Thon for
50 dollars each. We had previously expected the lures to retail for much more
than this so we were pleasantly surprised.

For only 50 dollars each these
ultra realistic handmade baits are a steal
Each Mattlures Hard Bluegill series is 5 inches in
length and weighs in at roughly 1.95oz. There is currently both a floating and sinking
version and there are many patterns in the lineup, all of which make use of
Matt's unique design and attention to detail to create a truly lifelike
facsimile of rock bass, Crappie, Tilapia, Red Ear Sunfish, and various types of
Bluegill.

Check out the Crappie pattern
In addition to the new Bluegill swimbaits matt
also showed us the mass production version of his new swimbait rods which we
first saw last ICAST. There are two levels of rods, the 249 dollar rods feature
Fuji SiC guides and the 159 dollar rods will make use of Alconite guides. The
more expensive rods come with a lifetime warranty and the cheaper ones will come
with a 3 year warranty. They are available now in powers ranging from Medium all
the way to XXX-Heavy for those supersized swimbaits.

Matt also now has his swimbait
rods in full production
