I'm still cracking up from reading your velcro idea . . . and I'm not making fun of it. (I only wish I had the time and skills to catch trophies like most of the guys on this board.)

I can't get the image of a bass stuck on a velcro backed bait outta my head. It would be murder on the calico bass with all those rows of little teeth. Think of all the torn up thumbs lipping them. Might have to put some down the back of some big swimbaits. It'd be a great scent holding material too . . .
