Flukeman Posted January 30, 2013 Posted January 30, 2013 Picked a couple of these up today to try. I usually am pitching the older Yozuri Rattlin Vibes. Anyone use these Xcalibers? Can you let me know what you think of them? (well made, cheaply made, do they work etc) Thanks Quote
Super User jbsoonerfan Posted January 30, 2013 Super User Posted January 30, 2013 Love them. I really like the Rayburn Red. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted January 30, 2013 Global Moderator Posted January 30, 2013 Hands down my favorite lipless bait. Rayburn Red and Ghost are my favorite colors. I really like the one knocker version of them also. I do change the hooks out with short shank #3's on the front and back, the stock hooks are sharp but kind of flimsy. 1 Quote
Super User Chris at Tech Posted January 31, 2013 Super User Posted January 31, 2013 To me, they seem good at higher retrieve speeds. I have better luck with other rattling baits at slower speeds Quote
TheKingFisher Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 I really like the xcalibur lipless crankbaits, especially the One knockers. The chrome black and foxy momma colors are definite winners. Quote
shootermcbob Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 I like them as well. My favorite color is the citrus?? or citrus shad color. Did pretty well with this lure last year. Also, I think they are very made and the finish is as durable as other lipless cranks Quote
that possum Posted January 31, 2013 Posted January 31, 2013 I really like the xcalibur lipless crankbaits, especially the One knockers. The chrome black and foxy momma colors are definite winners. Same here. The chrome and the crawdad colored are my favorites. My only complaint is that the paint wears off em cause of so many fish tearing em up! Quote
Flukeman Posted January 31, 2013 Author Posted January 31, 2013 Thanks for the input guys, as soon as the ice melts I am going to give them a try. Quote
TNBassin' Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 Great lures, and I use them alot, but I've caught more fish and better quality fish on the SK Red Eye Shad. Quote
WhiteMike1018 Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 I've caught some good fish with this bait. Its a quality lure Quote
Topwaterspook Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 I use the 1 oz. in talapia color in Mexico. I like them. Quote
38 Super Fan Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 I've been impressed with all the Xcalibur lures I've used, they make good quality stuff. Quote
Crappiebasser Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 To me, they seem good at higher retrieve speeds. I have better luck with other rattling baits at slower speeds I use the one knockers and they are better than red eye shad when slow rolling IMO. Quote
