Homer Winter King Derby!

Every spring, the folks in Homer, Alaska sponsor their Winter King derby. This is a derby that brings fishermen from around the country, for one day, to target the King salmon that are feeding in the local waters.

For the past several years, we've had the privilege of sending a couple of boxes of our OG2s up as prizes for the giveaway that takes place on derby day. This year, we included a new glow version of the OG2. This lure is constructed from plastic filled with particles that absorb, and then emit, UV light. You can charge these lures directly with a UV light, or, you can place them in direct sunlight to absorb the ambient UV emitted by the sun.

Just saw the below on FB. (Hoping that one of these years, we can get up there to fish.)
