Bass Bugs Hooked Anglers Across Texas Waters
Two West Texas anglers, veteran W. T. Denson of Roscoe and Bernard Stracener of Sweetwater, chase bass with Bass Bugs lure designed by Charley Stracener. The oddly effective metal lure with hair has drawn crowds from Sweetwater to Abilene, with catches including a 63 pound total by Denson and a 10 cast effort that produced a five to eight pound bass. Stracener explains the lure sinks to the bottom and is jerked up to trigger strikes, a tactic that yields big fish even when a bite is not immediate.
