Hittmann Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 Does anybody use gambler I'm thinking of ordering some things due to the fact that they have bulk bags but don't want to order a bunch if quality isn't that good. Quote
zachb34 Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 Can't go wrong I use nearly everything they make I don't like the 10inch ribbon tale though it's not as thick and heavy as I would like it to be Quote
bassguytom Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 The Gambler ugly otter and baby otter are my go to creature baits. I like them so much I tried to make a POP mold this winter of them and I call it the unapeeling otter. I'll be ordering more of the originals I'm sure. Where can I buy these in bulk? Quote
5fishlimit Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 They make good stuff. The ugly otter is a really good creature bait. Quote
Tartan34 Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 I am a fan of the Cane Toad. The Cane Toad rocks! The Big EZ is also a big fish machine. 1 Quote

Where can I buy these in bulk? they sell 50 packs of some baits for 9.99 usually its overstock though. Thanks everybody will definitely be giving them some hard earned money here soon lol. Quote
Blues19 Posted March 25, 2014 Posted March 25, 2014 I really liked their Chatterbaits. I dont know if they still make them, but they were my favorite of the bladed jigs Quote
0119 Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 I prefer their Ace and Fat Ace to the senko. Ive been killing inshore saltwater species with their EZ Swimmer for the last 6 months and they slay'ed it during the bass spawn this year. I really like the ugly otter but havent gotten much on them, crwdads are rare around here. Quote
fishinthedacks Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 I've got some stuff in a box from TG it looks as good a quality as any. Got a jig and soft plastic craws that match the jig. I like it. Quote
Blues19 Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Anyone use the Bacon Rind? I think it got big after someone used it in the Classic, like 10 years ago. Its pretty much a Brush Hog with 1 tail Quote
Super User J Francho Posted March 27, 2014 Super User Posted March 27, 2014 Otters and baby otters are a staple in my plastics arsenal. Quote
SoMinnBass Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 +1 for ugly otter and baby otter. Fairly unique action for a creature bait. Quote
DaveT63 Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 As others have said, I love the ugly otter, and the ace works for me too! Quote
Super User CWB Posted March 27, 2014 Super User Posted March 27, 2014 Love them. EZ Swimmer is killer. Quote
Super User MCS Posted March 28, 2014 Super User Posted March 28, 2014 Bb crickets, 7 & 10 ribbon tails, EZs, paddle tail worm, burner worm, flappin shad. Baits come scented. Honestly quality stuff worth the money Quote
shallow thinker Posted March 28, 2014 Posted March 28, 2014 BB cricket is a smaller flipping bait. Works great around here in the winter. Any color works as long as it is black/blue Big EZ and EZ swimmers rock Ace, which you can buy in bulk on the Gambler website, is a go to bait and far cheaper than a Senko Gambler also runs entry free tournaments in the south east, You just have to use their baits. Good people there at Gambler and always generous with donations to local events. Quote
moguy1973 Posted March 28, 2014 Posted March 28, 2014 I use the Flappy Daddys as jig trailers and have caught a lot of fish with them. Every now and then Gambler will have a 45% off sale which makes it really a good price. Quote
Super User .ghoti. Posted March 28, 2014 Super User Posted March 28, 2014 Very good quality baits. The Bacon Rind used to be one of my go-to baits. It's been out of production for a while. Quote
Lip 'em! Posted March 28, 2014 Posted March 28, 2014 The only gambler lure I have ever used was the cane toad. I did a side-by-side-by-side test over a week last summer using the cane toad, ribbit frog, and rage toad. I liked the gambler frog better than the ribbit, but the rage toad drew more strikes than either of these Quote
Super User MCS Posted March 28, 2014 Super User Posted March 28, 2014 Very good quality baits. The Bacon Rind used to be one of my go-to baits. It's been out of production for a while. They just brought it back you can even get it in bulk. Gotta go to their "factory" website and order there. Quote
Super User .ghoti. Posted March 28, 2014 Super User Posted March 28, 2014 They just brought it back you can even get it in bulk. Gotta go to their "factory" website and order there. I didn't know that. Thanks for the tip.. Quote
Super User .ghoti. Posted March 28, 2014 Super User Posted March 28, 2014 Forgot to add; a new fav is their Ledge Worm. The 9" has been great on a jighead, and the 11" on a t-rig. Quote
Super User RoLo Posted March 28, 2014 Super User Posted March 28, 2014 When Bass Pro Shops opened up in Orlando their shelves were loaded with Gambler baits. Gambler is based right here in Florida, so that made me a tad skeptical. I suspected they were local knock-offs with a fat profit margin, but I was wrong.Gambler makes high-quality stuff, and their baits are made of tough plastic that doesn't fall apart after 1 bass. More importantly, you'll notice that most Gambler baits 'Float' (test them in your bathroom basin). The Gambler Big EZ is a hippo-hanger in Florida, right up there with live shiners. Another winner is the Gambler Cane Toad, which Chris Lane used to win a major Florida tournament. IMO, the Cane Toad is rivaled only by the Stanley Ribbit & Strike King Rage Toad.Roger Quote
