TxHawgs Posted February 20, 2016 Posted February 20, 2016 Is there a difference between the discontinued LC RC 1.5 2.5 ect and the current 1.5 2.5 ect? I see the RC ones are selling for 30 a pc. and more on ebay. Guess they are discontinued colors. Quote
Super User Jrob78 Posted February 20, 2016 Super User Posted February 20, 2016 I've always assumed they were the same. I have a ton of both and haven't noticed a difference in performance. I definitely wouldn't pay $30 a piece for RC's. They closed them out for like $6 IIRC. Quote
Super User tomustang Posted February 20, 2016 Super User Posted February 20, 2016 After clunn was dropped they discounted the baits. For some reason panic ensued and raised prices and became a cult item much like original wiggle warts, I can't tell the difference in them and most importantly the fish don't either. Quote
Super User iabass8 Posted February 20, 2016 Super User Posted February 20, 2016 I can't tell the difference and also have/use both interchangeably. However, according to Hooligan who hadnt been around in way too long, there is supposedly a difference in the weighting and a hair difference in shape. Regardless, the rto and drs 1.5 are dynamite(really like the RTO 2.0 as well). Would never pay the price for a RC 1.5 when i cant tell a difference vs the ones today. Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted February 20, 2016 Super User Posted February 20, 2016 The LC 1.5 & 2.5 are no doubt productive baits. Are they worthy of some of the high auction site prices they are commanding ? If have a "rare" bait in a primary objective then perhaps so. There's a certain SK sponsored Pro who's done pretty good with the $5 version of those baits too though. Just saying. A-Jay Quote
TxHawgs Posted February 20, 2016 Author Posted February 20, 2016 I looked into it more, the LC RC baits on ebay that is. And they get those prices for them because the are discontinued colors and baits obviously. A lot of the copper colors that RC himself likes more than other colors. Quote
Super User Team9nine Posted February 20, 2016 Super User Posted February 20, 2016 Not certain why they are short of just being something discontinued, but after reading this post, I thought I'd throw a pair of my NIB RC1.5s on Ebay just to see what would happen. At $41 for the pair and still 2 days to go. Think I'll throw a couple more up there for sale at that price point Thanks for the heads up TxHawgs - LOL. -T9 1 Quote
