There’s an old schoolyard saying: “You can pick your friends. You can pick your nose. But you can’t pick your friend’s nose.”
Like all things in life, there’s a fishing corollary to that concept: “You can share your tackle and you can catch a lunker. But can’t share a Texas Share Lunker.”
Or something like that.
Texan Lloyd Walker, owner of XCite Baits, may have paid attention a little too well in kindergarten. He’s got this “play well with others” concept down pat. Fishing on his birthday at Lake OH Ivie with pro-staffer Wes Pullig, Walker offered Pullig a chance to try out his new rod and reel. At the end of his line was a football jig with a prototype craw affixed to the hook.
