And then, for the fishermen in the crowd…

My name is Rick Lawrence the inventor of the Fish-N-Fool knot which is currently on the “Knot Wars” segment of the North American Fisherman TV show on the Versus network.( Ch. 151 on Dish network and Ch. 603 on Direct TV) My knot won the national contest to be crowned the best fishing knot they have ever tested on the show. It airs on Fridays at 7 & 10 AM as well as sun. at 8:30 AM each week. Next week my knot goes up against the miller knot. Every week my knot will go up against a new knot till they crown it as the Knot Wars champ. The shows are now repeating so I already know that my knot won.

I live in Vay, but consider Priest Riv. my home town. I am launching a new fishing lure business, called Fish-N-Fool lures, making mainly soft plastic bass lures that I call a Sink-N-Fool. Here is a few fish I got this last Monday on some of my lures, in the slew off the river. I got these hogs off a 6″ Green Shad Sink-N-Fool. After I took this picture I let all the fish go, so they are still there to catch another day. The 2 biggest ones were over 6 pounds.

I’m getting the production molds made right now and should be in production in about 2 to 3 weeks. As soon as I get the baits made and packaged, they will be available at Sandpoint Outfitters in Sandpoint, Black Sheep in CDA, and Fins & Feathers in CDA. I’m going to try to get Mac’s in P.R. and the Pend Oreille Valley Sportsman in Oldtown to sell them as well.

I have a few professional fisherman that use and promote my lures as well. Jim Grassi of Post Falls, a National Freshwater Hall of Fame fisherman is one, as well as Stan Fagerstrom of Sun lakes, AZ. the “Master Caster” and a Bass Fishing Hall of Fame fisherman.

I had never met either of these guys before a few month’s ago and both have gone out of their way to help promote my baits. Jim is an amazing guy who as been there and done it all. He knows all the big name fisherman and been on a board of directors with guys like Bill Dance and Hank parker. He has really been helpful getting my baits off the ground floor and is even using my lures in all of the seminars he does all over the country. Can’t thank him enough.

Hopefully, Rick will let us know when he’s in full production – so we can get out and buy these lures!
