In this episode of the Lure Fishing Podcast over a year on from when we chatted on the very first episode i was delighted to catch up with Michael Kelly founder of Evo Bass Lures.

I was very excited to talk to Michael about the new lure he has developed called the Dagger. A very unique swimbait - shad type lure. Knowing Michael and his knowledge and attention to detail in his lure development I know this lure is going to be something special.

We also look back on the success of the Lance and Sabre Evo lures and get an insight into how Michael developed the dagger. A really fascinating insight into Michaels world of lure making and we chat about the bass fishing of course, enjoy.
