Almost unfair

[Jaderose]

A Havoc Pit Boss on an Owner Ultrahead Finesse Ball Head worked around brush piles, stumps and laydowns is about as close to cheating as you can get.  It was all I threw yesterday other than a frog and had an insane day.  I'll be a sad camper when I finally run out out of the Havoc's.  I will never understand why Berkley felt the need to do away with them.

Ive still got a pack of green pumpkin/purple and like one or two black blue flake and I love them but dont use them much because I don't want to run out!!

Berkley discontinued their Havoc line, but the Pit Boss is still available.

 

Funny you should mention Pit Boss. When it was first introduced, I thought it looked laughable.

Yet, the Pit Boss has become one of my favorite trailers.

I totally agree, the Pit Boss has since become one of my favorite trailers.

Admittedly, I have not tried them but have not heard good things.  Luckily, PB's are one of those things that I have just absentmindedly bought through the years when they have been stupid cheap at wally world.  Unfortunately the color that has been slaying for me (Watermelon/Orange Fleck) is one I am running low on.  I will try the Powerbait ones when I run out and I hope the opinions I've heard are wrong

I really miss the Havoc line of baits. Such good baits at a great price

Check your local Walmart. Mine had probably a dozen bags of them on clearance for 1.65 a bag .

I like the Havoc pit boss, but as I run out of them, I'm finding that the Missile Baits D bomb works just as well and is the same price as the new pit boss.

I can't hardly get a bite on a D Bomb ?‍♂️

 

This is the next best thing I've found to a Pit Boss with the similar profile and action.

I've looked at those enough, I'm surprised I haven't pulled the trigger.  I need to

Finally was able to get the havocs going this year on the maple river.  I was using a craw fatty.  Are they going to keep the craw fatty in the regular Berkley line up?  If not I will have to fine a bigger craw than a chigger craw.
