Here's a way to have your very own (only one in the world) custom USB memory chip.

First of all, choose a lure and a USB chip that will fit inside the other. I used this popper after I smashed it against a stone bank and broke the back off of it. I also chose it because it was my best performing lure at that time (last summer).
Next, remove the outer case from the USB.
Next, take a stanley knife blade (that's what we call these blades in the UK  lo ). The lure has to be halved along the top and bottom to make it 2 pieces/halves. The way I did this was (if your lure chose is hard plastic) heat the knife blade with a ciggerette lighter to make it hot and then cut along the top and bottom. You could use a fine bladed saw, but this would remove too much plastic during cutting.
When you have your 2 halves try and fit the USB chip. It will not be right first time so some trimming and cutting will be required.
When you are happy with the trimming and the 2 pieces and the chip fit together well, then it's time for the fast drying super glue. Glue the 2 halves together using a smallest ammount of glue possible (you don't want it all over the place and all over the chip).
Once the glue has set, you can fill the gaps with additional super glue or some kind of filler. The touch up the paint or repaint your own custom color and your done.  8)

You should have gotten it patented before posting about it on here!! I am surprised Bass Pro Shops hasn't already thought of this and started selling them... I know I'd like to have one...

Little expensive for a bait, and what about the rear trebbles? Oh well, I guess if I can spend $20 on a Lucky Craft, and $40 on a swim bait, then whatever a memory stick cost can't be too bad.


JK  lo

Looks like a cool conversation peice in the office.
