Does anyone have info about the Castle River out of Petersburg? We are going up in August to fish for silvers. Any advice would be helpful, specifically any good spin or fly gear for silvers, any good boat rental outfit and halibut charters out of Petersburg. Thanks.

Resource11, bring Pixee Spoons in pink, chartreuse, and blue (mostly pink), and Vibrax Spinners in the same color range. You'll tear 'em up the 3rd week of August.

The only place I have seen them is at www.wholesalesports.com. They dont have a large selection of colors, and cant order online. Have to request a catalog and do it the old fashion way.

was thinking maybe i could get 'em cheaper somewhere else. if not, could pick some up when we get there instead of paying their prices, plus the postage.

That'll help, plus knowing that Luhr Jensen makes em will help tracking them down.

Look like winners to me.
I've had better luck with a lighter pink and that same chartreuse in the Pixee's and the Blue Fox spinners. I have seen those same blades on pop gear by Luhr Jensen.
Thanks for the pics Grizz.

BTF, check this link. You can see pictures of the ones they carry, like I said, pretty limited in color, and none cheaper.

Grizz, thanks. Ill try to get some prior to going up, but if all else fails, Im sure I could get some in Petersburg. I wonder if a guy could build some on a similar spinner and attach a hoochie?

Thanks for the link. Pretty typical of LJ, they set their prices higher to discourage buying directly from them...prefer you go to their retail customers. Building your own would be the ticket if you could get the components.
