Walmart Lure Extravaganza

[bassinKS]

My walmart has this right now too. They also have a little clearance section of random baits, lures and hooks. I scored some 4/0 and 5/0 Trokar TK130 Flipping hooks for $4.50 regular $6.99, I have been needing some flipping hooks and have wanted to try the Trokar brand so I picked them up almost wiped them clean lol.

I got a pack of yum craws, some Strike King worms, and two of the same crankbait for only a couple bucks.

The lazy Ike's a great bait. I usually let my 7 year old use one and he does well on it.

I just picked up a couple from the dollar bin at Walmart and used one so far. How are they supposed run? The one I used ran a little then turned over and repeated. It was weird and I don't know if that's normal since this is my first time using them.

They should just wiggle side to side and kind of flutter at the same time on a straight retrieve...I've had a few of those heddon Baits get a little out of tune,the line ties can get turned a little too far too the left or right. Id check that first, maybe tighten it another full crank or superglue if need be.

Bought a bomber spinner out of one of those boxes. Threw it out a few times got nothing. never really gave it a chance though I will when the mood strikes.

 

Only gripe is the color....its a chartruse (sp?)

On a related topic...I did buy one of those cheap spinner they have hanging up without a package for $1. I took the skirt off and have been experimenting with rubber trailers rigged on the hook. So far, I've tried a mini fluke witch I didnt like. I also tried a 4.5 inch suggo, buy only threw it out a few times. It looked good though...If i was a bass I would of hit it!!! haha

 

I think after work I'm gonna bring a handfull of plastics and only that lure and try things out. I'll let you guys know if anything works.

Well that's what I figured getting them out of the dollar bin at Walmart. They should actually be paying me a dollar to take them. I'll try to fix them. Thanks

the walmart by me has three of these bins and i look through them every time i go there and i end up walking out with at least five more things, but the prices aren't as low as they should be for what is considered a "bargain bin", the thing that throws me though is that a lot of the baits say saltwater on them, but looking at them there really isnt any difference except with the soft plastics that are obviously for saltwater

I took advantage of it today.

Darn, you cats are lucky. Nothing like these deals up here at our local Wal-Marts where I am...not that I could justify adding any more tackle to the collection...he says after buying four lures not one hour ago at a local outfitter.

Two Walmarts near me almost never have a sale unless something is damaged.  Others have $30 off Bucoo rods, not mine.  Others are having a big sale on reels, not mine.  Others have a big discount on selected lures, not mine.  I do better at Dick's.  At least there I can find the occasion hard bait and soft bait on sale.  They have a LH Citica for $99.99....that is what is in the display.  Didn't ask if RH Citicas were included in the sale.

 

I get much better prices at Ollies (for lures and line), but selection is limited.
