5fishlimit Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 What lure(s) have you bought over the winter time that you're most excited to throw once your area thaws out? For me it's the following: - Megastrike Strike Back spinnerbait - Rage Toad - Dahlberg Diving Frog 1 Quote

mnbassman23 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Northstar Custom Baits- Black Series, Flip and Swims, and Knockout jigs. Norman D22's Also some things on my radar to pick up are the berkley havoc Sick Fsh and Beat Shad. I'm thinking the beat shad on the back of a flip and swim is going to produce some biggins this year Quote

Super User Bankbeater Posted January 25, 2013 Super User Posted January 25, 2013 I've been busy at work and home so the only thing I have bought is a spool of line, and some 1/8 oz. jigs. Tomorrow I am planning a run to a couple of little bait shops to see what they are carrying. Quote
fowlskies Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Good topic for us northern guys that are getting cabin fever. I can't wait to try out some new spinnerbaits I bought. I have been using War Eagles the past couple years, this winter I picked up a new War Eagle, a Terminator T-1 and a Stanley Vibrashaft. When it comes time I'm gonna put the three to the test and see what brand I like the best, I might have to post a thread on my review of the three. I'm also thinking of buying a Strike King and Booyah spinnerbait to do a full on test with some of the most popular brands on the market. I also picked up two new Real Image hard swimbaits from Cabelas that look awesome and I am bursting at the seams to see how they work. That and I also picked up some Berkley flatback shad soft swimbaits that Doug Stange is always pitching on In-Fisherman. It'll be interesting to see how these work also. Those are the new baits I'm excited to try but I am also going to try a new to me technique this year. I'm pretty pumped to get out there and put a good effort into learning the dropshot. Quote
CPBassFishing Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Jigs, Jigs, and more jigs. im starting on making my own and i love using jigs, they are just so versatile. if i get into it enough i might start a jig/soft plastic company. i have a few sweet designs i need to get some molding clay and plaster of paris to make molds for. also the big bite baits warmouth. they should absolutely SLAUGHTER to cruising fish in the ponds i fish. in the summer these 18-25" fish just cruise around the shoreline and they are so easy to catch on live bluegills. i know thats not very sportsmanlike so im not doing that anymore. anyways, back to the warmouths. weightless on a 3/0 EWG hooks. twitch to the surface like a dying bluegill trying to escape, let it slowly sink. WHAM! Quote

SudburyBasser Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Way too many lures to list though I'm most excited for the Vision 110s I picked up and the tonne (or ton for you Yanks) of plastic I somehow bought without even noticing. Also went crazy with the lipless cranks a few weeks ago. Did I also mention the crankbaits? Yeah, bought a bunch of those too. Oh yeah, and the spinnerbaits and jigs. Cripes, I had to buy a new bigger tackle bag just to hold all of it. Also bought my first baitcaster and will be picking up a rod for it next week so there's that as well. Quote
