Just got these Bandit Rack-It squarebills!  Looking forward to whackin' a few with them.  Fall crankbaiting is here!

I have a feeling this little guy realized he'd made a serious "Mistake" ?

Seriously though, if you're a river fisherman or fish a lot of dirty water and don't have some Mistake colored Bandits, it's you making the mistake!

Very nice! I wasn’t crazy about the colors but seeing them in the picture I see three that I’m adding to my collection.

If you're going off the pictures on TW, those pictures make the colors look really bad for some reason. They look much better in person, just like the dependable Bandit colors that have been catching fish for some many years.

How do these differ from the classic 100/200 series?  Looking them up, I see it dives deeper than a 100, but less than a 200. They're heavier...are they bigger in the body, too?

 

There was an old bandit squarebill that was discontinued a few years ago. I still have a few-- they were about the size of a 2.5.  Are these new ones like those?

These may be replacing the flat maxx bandit used to have out.

It has a resemblance to the original Rebel Wee R which was a great bait.  They should really effective.  No Tennessee Shad or Rootbeer ?

They're bigger than the 100, run a little deeper, but not as deep as a 200. The rattles are a bit louder too.

 

I'd have to put them side to side but I don't think they're quite a big as a 2.5, more like a 2.0. The Rackits are not the same as the old Bandit squarebills though, much better baits imo.

Very nice catches. I am not sure of the quality these baits will have considering the track record of the company that owns them know. I feel like they have ruined every brand they bought. Once they buy out a company I usually quit buying their baits.

I seen you catch theses on your YouTube channel I think? You also got a five pounder on a jig? I think not sure but I’m pretty sure.

Yes, the top 6 were from one day and the bottom 3 from another, both in different videos I posted.

Time will tell but I'm not a very good crankbait fisherman by any means and I was able to catch fish on them, so take that for what it's worth.
