sully420 Posted July 25, 2017 Posted July 25, 2017 What is the bait in your box that has gained legendary status to you? It's the bait you go to, it's the bait that always hooks up, it's the bait but you'll never replace. Quote
Super User Catt Posted July 25, 2017 Super User Posted July 25, 2017 Gene Larew 7 ½ Salty Ring Worm Cinnamon Pepper Neon/June Bug Laminated (Camouflage). Sadly Gene Larew quit making them but Ann's Tackle in Jasper, Tx has some that are just as productive. I've caught a couple dozen double D's across 5 states on it & won 17 tournaments with em. 7 Quote
sully420 Posted July 25, 2017 Author Posted July 25, 2017 This is mine it's a Booyah pad Crasher I've got my PB on this bait and countless other giant Bass. It's my go-to frog I haven't missed a hook set on it in i can't remember how long and I don't think I'll ever lose it. 5 Quote
Super User scaleface Posted July 25, 2017 Super User Posted July 25, 2017 I have one hanging in a tree . Had several buzzbaits that the blade wore out on . As far as a bait that " always hooks up " Never seen one . 1 Quote

Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted July 27, 2017 Global Moderator Posted July 27, 2017 I've taken so many pictures of this bait that look like this, it's hard not to throw it some day.s 4 Quote
Super User scaleface Posted July 27, 2017 Super User Posted July 27, 2017 This vintage Rogers Big Jim is the most successful crankbait I ever used. Sadly I lost this one in a tree but was lucky enough to have an identical one . I picked the two up at an antique store . They dont have a lot action , no rattle but they "hunt" . One day the bass were taking it so deeply that I was spending more time unhooking fish than fishing . I switched to another brand and caught more bass because they were caught on the back hook and easily removed . 7 Quote
Avalonjohn44 Posted July 27, 2017 Posted July 27, 2017 This LC RC 1.5 is my Legendary Bait. I have hundreds of bass on this bait. I've gone swimming after hanging this bait up. Once waded in up to my waist in the Shenendoah at Thanksgiving weekend to retrieve it. 8 Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted July 27, 2017 Super User Posted July 27, 2017 I have a few. First two are legit - That last one's pretty much just comic relief. A-Jay 4 Quote

Super User Bankbeater Posted July 27, 2017 Super User Posted July 27, 2017 I have two Storm sub-warts in hot tiger color that I use when the bite gets very, very slow. I bought them about 13, or 14 years ago, and one is always in the tackle bag when I go out. 1 Quote

Super User Gundog Posted July 28, 2017 Super User Posted July 28, 2017 Arkie crawlin' grub and jig head. If my computer hadn't self-destructed, I'd show you about 20 pics just from this year of the bass I've caught on that bait. Its a killer. 2 Quote

BaitMonkey1984 Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 This thing tex rigged with an un pegged weight will catch me lots of fish all year long. Deep or shallow. Open water or flipping. Funny thing is that the regular chigger craw that simply doesn't have the middle two extra appendages is a dud around here. Crazy that my homelike bass will kill this bait but not one so similar. 2 Quote
BuzzHudson19c Posted July 28, 2017 Posted July 28, 2017 I still own a flip phone so uploading pics is tough. Just imagine a once black buzzbait, most of the paint chipped off exposing bare lead, the skirt hanging on by a thread, and main wire bent and re bent in a line that you could call "kinda straight." 1 Quote

Super User QUAKEnSHAKE Posted July 28, 2017 Super User Posted July 28, 2017 Kinami Palm Tree watermelon chartreuse discontinued. Was able to source around 100 packs before they were all gone. And MEND-IT has made it possible to prolong the use of these as well as other costly plastics(Keitech Swing Impact Fat paddle tails.) so Ill mention that as a legendary product to use 3 Quote
