Howell angler comes up with right baits in Detroit area fish
Stricker held up a thin, off-white strip of rubbery material about six inches long and shaped like the belly strip and tail of a skinny fish. It was the Strick 9 A-Salt plastic jerk bait by Schubert Lures, the latest creation in his unending effort to fool bass into forgoing their natural diet of crayfish and minnows in favor of an artificial lure, however outlandish.
Stricker, 53, is president of Stricker Paint Products in Novi, but only out of necessity. His passion is fishing in professional bass tournaments, and he has been good enough not only to win some major and minor events but build a reputation as a bass authority. His endorsement sells lures.
