Super User Munkin Posted March 6, 2015 Super User Posted March 6, 2015 The rattles are different and the old ones were built under pressure and are supposed to be a lot more durable. I personaly think they are like pre raps and are a lot of hype. Both catch fish but some of the old ones sell for crazy money. I'm looking for a Pro Blue to add to my collection. The last one I bid on sold for $225. I have one in my retirement portfolio it is a 2001 or 2002? It is in my stash of collectable baits that includes a 110 in Deadly Black and a Ichiban Balsa Pro minnow. Allen Quote

Super User gardnerjigman Posted March 6, 2015 Super User Posted March 6, 2015 All Pre-Rapala. I've got 3 more on the way. I want the top one right side. (where they are put in twos.) Lol Quote
Super User fishballer06 Posted March 6, 2015 Super User Posted March 6, 2015 That's a wee sized perch. I've got 4 of them in the standard size (see middle). Interesting to see the different shades of those 4. Quote

primetime Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 Heres a display of mine. I have some older lures around. love the vintage stuff, nice bagleys and great condition, do you fish it still? I get scared using my older stuff, especially the original molds of bagley's balsa, new one's not in same league. Quote
primetime Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 All Pre-Rapala. I've got 3 more on the way. Those things fetch a few hundred dollars if Minn and not Finland, not sure why some are more, I am not good enough with cranks to know the difference between older warts and newer ones, but if they are like the older whopper stopper and bagley's then I get it for sure...Same with older rogues. How deep do warts run, 4-8???? If so not sure why I don't throw them, or is it 17' then I know why I never open them. Thanks. Awesome collection, vintage is the best, can'r replace em. Quote

I get scared using my older stuff, especially the original molds of bagley's balsa, new one's not in same league. I wont use the bagleys. I wouldnt think twice about using those Natural Ikes . Its just that I never caught much off the Ikes. Theres a Rebel natural bass in there too, that I like . 1 Quote
Super User Choporoz Posted March 7, 2015 Super User Posted March 7, 2015 A few from my grandfather that I've got on display....there's a few more around here somewhere...guess I need to get a bigger cabinet. 2 Quote
Bruce424 Posted March 7, 2015 Posted March 7, 2015 Not many rare ones in this box but I have a few more boxes besides the ones in the pic. I'll try to get some pics up soon. That's a pretty cool box. Quote
DTack Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 Not many rare ones in this box but I have a few more boxes besides the ones in the pic. I'll try to get some pics up soon. May I ask what color the 3rd from the bottom is on the left side? Might be pro blue but it looks very light? Thanks in advance. Great box of baits to get bit on! Quote

primetime Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 People use treble guards? Fish take the paint of all the lures anyway, I jam as much into a box as I can and I could care less about scratching. I hate tangles, but I have rubber bands on some, but usually I only clean them end of year or few times, but I only use 5% of what I carry anyhow, keep them aside and the rest is just in case..... My best lures don't have paint left except for the times I use my sharpie on the water, I use my sharpie on new lures, need some chartreuse on my new silver and blue rattle trap, boom, need black at night after losing my Sammy? I decided to take the yellow one that is probably rare and a collector item since I have never thrown it and it is when first came out, but now it is all black from my sharpie...Works great, well, half black, yellow, and white undercoating now.

Crank Bait Nut Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 Well Primetime , To Answer Your Question , I Could Care Less About My Baits Getting Scratched Up As I Fish Them , I Use Treble Guards , Because I Hate Tangles and It Fits My Way To Organize My Baits. Mike Quote
powerduster Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 I caught hundreds of fish with this lure. I use it in lakes, rivers, ocean. It's called fakebait made by Maria Japan and is quite difficult to find. 2 Quote
Super User scaleface Posted March 11, 2015 Super User Posted March 11, 2015 Now thats a gnawed up lure . ^ ^ Quote
