In heavily -weeded areas, it is absolutely necessary to use a Wtkealess lure to permit any type of fishing at all. A weed- less lure usually consists of one or two wire prongs at- tached to the front of the lure running Own to just above the point of the' hook Although weedless lures are by no Means foolproof, they work well 'in most instances. TIP OF THE WEEK When weeds „come in contact with the wire prong,, they usually slide along it- and off, leaving the hook free. "One of the all-time favorite weedless lures is the Johnson Silver. Minnow. This weedless' spoon has been an effective lure over. the years in areas abundant with weecjs and logs._ Should you be catight short without a weedless hook in your, tackle box, you can lin- provise by using a rubber band weed guard. Although this is not a new idea and is not as effective as a wire prong, it is better than nothing and may , make the difference between success and failure. Simply place the rubber band oirer the shank of the hook and run one end of it thiough the eye of the hook and pull it tight. ,Next, stretch the,exposed end of the rubber band and place it, over the barb of the hook. Your hook is , When using the rubber band weed guard, only hooks with large eye§ can be used as the rubber band is too large to pass' through the eye of small- er hooks. Often the tip wade of your rod will, become loose when on a fishing yip,. This_problerrk,cappriN remedied Ay. stick of the ferrule cem*ent with a match. Rub the ferrule Cemott over the exposed glass end of the rod and reTilace -the tip guide. Since the cement wilt harden almost . instantly, you'll be fishing agairt.in seconds.
