WCFT New Products Launch 2023 - OPEN DISCUSSION

[WestCFishingTackle]

Our trip to Port Eliza Lodge was another memorable one and thanks to Jeff at Westcoast Fishing Tackle we added the twist of having our guides participate in a one day derby of sorts. All Chinook caught on the Little Phat-E No Bananas version (barbs flattened of course), that each guide was provided, was in the running and a number of fish were weighed in for the win on Day 2 of our trip.

The winning fish was caught late in the day and weighed in at 22 lbs.

The winning guide received a nice little cash prize as well as this gift pack from @WestCFishingTackle!

Ah man, was so happy to be a part of this annual event. The guys looked awesome in the co-branded hats! It was tough fishing with the wind and the full moon tides, so I'm pretty impressed you guys go into some quality fish! Good job and Brian, I know it's a thankless job organizing everything, so a BIG shout out to you for making it all happen! Cheers, Jeff

on the past week i have purchased three jigging rods, one as a gift. slow pitch jigging is so much fun and i hooked and released about a 15 yesterday and that little rod ( 6’3 MH ) handled it like nothing. i currently have it paired with an Abu 6501 and while it works just fine it’s a little heavy. any suggestions?

I've seen the guys also use the

Avet JX 4.6 G2 Reel sold at Harbour Chandler​

It's super light weight and action, but packs a good punch for line retrieve. We also use bait caster style reels too which go nicely on them the carbon fiber reels are super light.

Good luck and let me know how you make out. Cheers, Jeff

Hi All,

Looking at developing a new colour for the TURD HOOCHIES. These have been on fire all season on both sides of the Island. ANY and all thoughts on a 4th colour would be MOST Welcomed.

Thanks,

Jeff

I would love to see a pattern that looks like a market squid. Off white/ opaque with brown spots

I've done well with other company's bright white with pale brown spots and yellow halos.
Clear UV beige with just a bit of brown spackle maybe.

White/clear uv body with the brown and yellow dots that run just on one side

Because a no bananas spoon really looks like a fish. Lol.

Contacted Jeff and ask for a custom spoon to experiment with. Jeff did the spoons up and at my door by the end of the week.
Tried them out and they are out fishing the other spoons 3 to 1.
Thanks Jeff.

Jeff is awesome and truly passionate angler. He made some spoons for me imitating my favourite hoochie and made some extras for his custom lure marketplace. Haven’t fished them myself yet but they work.

Fished all year with mostly WCFT spoons of all colors. They are by far the best quality and most durable I have been able to buy in a long time.

Just picked up some little phat-e spoons at the Grandview Canadian Tires last week. Will report back with how they perform alongside Gibbs, Coyote, and Amundson spoons. If the weather plays nice, that is
