CODE ALERT! SENKO SHINER COLOR CODE 905 IS NOW 326

Gary Yamamoto Custom Baits headquarters in Page, Arizona is
nestled in the Navajo Indian Nation, home of the World War
II codetalkers. So we take our codetalk seriously here. In
an ongoing effort to bewilder the angling competition, we've
switched the Senko Shiner color code from 905 to 326. Unless
you are one of our WEEKLY NEWS codetalkers, your competition
will think 905 no longer exists. Only you will know it's
code-named 326.

The word Senko means "Flash" and that's just what 326 does.
A transparent body, gold and silver scale-like sparkles and
sparse black spots complete the illusion of life. You'll
want to keep 326 in your bait bucket instead of your tackle
box.

Please memorize this new code. This message will
self-destruct in a five fish limit.

COME ON BABY, LIGHT MY FIRE

You know that it would be untrue. You know that I would be a
liar. If I was to say to you, "You couldn't get any Fire Tiger."

It wasn't the '60s, but the late 90s when not without
regret, I bartered the boys in the Gary Yamamoto research
lab my rare collection of Doors memorabilia in exchange for
brewing me some bootleg fire tigers. Kind of sold my soul
for some fire tigers you could say. It was the perfect plan.
No one would have ever known. Only problem was they ran an
extra pot of fire tiger for themselves, and caught fish to
beat the band with it. That was my first mistake.

In the May/June 2002 issue of the Inside Line magazine, I
slipped again when I made fire tiger a field test special
for Inside Line magazine readers only. What was I thinking?

The field test went all too well. Fire tiger was approved to
became a full-time production item, color code 327 in the 5"
and 4" Senko. Desperately I made another pact with the rock
fans in the research lab (cost me all my Cream and Blind
Faith albums this time). We wouldn't tell a blind soul about
327 if they didn't ask. That worked temporarily but...

The time to hesitate is through. No time to wallow in the
mire. Call 800-645-2248 or visit www.baits.com to get your
Fire Tiger Senkos.

SAMPLE SENKOS WIN TEXAS ASSOC. OF BASS CLUBS CHAMPIONSHIP

"Most other boats had pulled up their trolling motor to beat
it back in time in the rough water. However my partner and I
decided to go for broke and fish just a little longer," says
Steve "Doc" Ingrams.

"I decided to try one last spot on Lake Amistad. I had used
all my sample pack of Senkos and most of my partner's...
only two Senkos left. We had no way of knowing at the time
that our club was trailing first place by less than a pound.
I pitched in a Senko and was rewarded with a solid weigher,
our fifth bass of the day. We made the boat ready and put
the hammer down for the long ride back. Luckily, we arrived
in time. That last Senko fish won us the 2003 Texas Association of Bass
Clubs State Championship for our club!"

BRUCE GALINAT LANDS RALLY@ GUNTERSVILLE BIG BASS ON SENKO

Although "rally" is a general term, the word has a very
specific usage when it comes to fishing and the Internet.
You see, a rally in fishing web site terminology means a
get-together for fisherpersons from across the nation. The
really neat thing about the Internet is no matter where you
reside, you are just one quick mouse-click away from your
fellow anglers nationwide, indeed worldwide.

Guntersville, please visit:
