BassFishingMachine Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 Just curious to see what your favorite Propbait is. Mine would have to be a Heddon Tiny Torpedo in baby bass. Quote
msmonroe Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 I have caught many fish off of Cotton Cordell's Crazy Shad (Chrome) and Heddon's Magnum Torpedo. Both are cheap but are effective, for me anyway. Now I watched my granddad catch tons of bass off of a Dalton Special he bought back in the 50's. After he passed I got all his fishing stuff, but I won't fish that Dalton Special. I'm too afraid to lose it. - Matt Quote
justfishin Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 The Torpedo line, Tiny, Baby, etc. and the Devils Horse. Quote
Super User T-rig Posted May 2, 2007 Super User Posted May 2, 2007 Megabass Scream-X and Lucky Craft Splash Tail Quote
Vyron Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 Megabass Scream-X and Lucky Craft Splash Tail Is there any lure u dont own ? LOL Quote
jdw174 Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 I have a 3/8oz chrome/black Devil's Horse that I wouldn't get rid of for anything. When there's a topwater bite but the wind is up, there's nothing like it. Quote
Super User Catt Posted May 2, 2007 Super User Posted May 2, 2007 Heddon's Tiny Torpedo in the clear color is killer on schooly bass Quote
wickyman Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 Heddon Torpedo in frog. I like them because I have a location that I can get a hold of them for 2 bucks and change! Quote
Lightninrod Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 LC Splash Tail Our unique ball-bearing double swisher propeller- "an industry first" -effectively reduces friction while making for a smoother, more rapid propeller rotaion. And thanks to the ball-bearing mechanism you can make the Splas-Tail swim over shorter pitch than any other swisher available today. Dan Quote
Gorgebassman Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 My favorite and the only prop bait I own is a nip a di di made by luhr jensen and I have caught alot of fish on it. Quote
Super User T-rig Posted May 2, 2007 Super User Posted May 2, 2007 Megabass Scream-X and Lucky Craft Splash Tail Is there any lure u dont own ? LOL Yes, too many! ;D ;D Quote
basspro48 Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 Devil's Horse in yellow/black back or a wounded spook in frog. Quote
Triton9 Posted May 2, 2007 Posted May 2, 2007 i would have to say a three-way tie between the Devil's Horse, LC Wake Tail, and the LC Splash Tail. Quote
skillet Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 Matt, I have a Dalton Special that I got a yard sale probably 20 yrs. ago. I just recently used clear polish to try and take care of cracks in the finish. I keep it in my tackle box and will use it (but not often) and if push comes to shove, I would go swimming for it ;D. I think it swings wider and farther than other walk-the-dog baits. At the same sale I bought a Devil's Horse that is almost 6" long (biggest I've ever seen), haven't used it for fear of scaring fish. Favorite would have to be Devil's Horse (not 6" one) and then smaller Spooks and Torpedos... As Ever, Skillet Quote
Avalonjohn44 Posted May 3, 2007 Posted May 3, 2007 Right now it's the Bagley Bang-o Spin Tail, but I'm saving my dollars to grab some of those Megabass scream X's. Once I get those, I'm thinking they'll be my favorite. Quote
Infidel. Posted May 4, 2007 Posted May 4, 2007 Black and Silver Rapala Skitter Prop by far. It doesn't cast as well as baits like the Splash Tail but it catches way more fish. Quote
ejtaylor822 Posted May 4, 2007 Posted May 4, 2007 Have had success with the mini torpedo black shiner. Just picked up a NIP-I-DIDDE yellow/black frog off of ebay that I am anxious/hoping to try out this weekend. Eddie Quote
Rattlinrogue Posted May 4, 2007 Posted May 4, 2007 I have two favorites.I like the Smithwick Devil's Horse and the Heddon Tiny Torpedo. Quote
Guest avid Posted May 4, 2007 Posted May 4, 2007 Want to hear my sad story? Tough Years ago, I had a heddon dying flutter, yellow/black. It was the bass catchenest lure I ever had. I'm serious. there was something about that lure that was dynamite. It got cut off by a big pickerel. I immediately bought another but it didn't work nearly as well. I got devils horses, more dying flutters, spash tail, and wake tail but no prop I have ever owned before or since was near as good as that lure. Oh, and yes, I did bend the props and do everything imaginable but I'm telling you it was that individual lure that had the mojo. Out of all the prop baits I have the best one for me right now is a baby torpedo in frog. I miss my dying flutter :'( :'( :'( Quote
