After Much Casting, I Must Say, The Price You Pay Is Not = To The Lure You Get Many Times

^^ nailed it. It's not about the price. It's about catching fish.

If your buying jdm tackle, it's because your an enthusiast, you enjoy the craftsmanship and look of them. I own too many of them myself, and I really enjoy fishing some of the more unique ones. The Roumba, waddle bat, buzzjet, pompadour, silent killer, pop max...there are many jdm baits that are very useful and have no counterpart made by pradco or anyone else.

swimbaits and glide baits is where its worth it to spend more money in my opinion. Everything else can be found in great quality, action, finish, detail, etc. for a decent price

I have a Popmax and it's a good bait. My favorite popper is the Xcaliber Zell pop, the smaller size. Generally it's easier for me to spend a little more on a topwater or shallow running bait because I know there's a better chance I can get it back if it gets hung up. 

X2 that popper gets destroyed unlike any other topwater bait I've used
