Classic baits you've never thrown...

[DitchPanda]

Is there a bait that's got a good long time reputation as a producer you've never thrown? If so why? For me its a wiggle wart. The reason is simple...I'm a bank fisherman so I don't have alot of use for a bait that dives that deep. Also I don't have much around me for sloping rock banks...more wood and weeds. Lastly I just started cranking seriously a few years ago and its a bait I haven't gotten around to.

I don't believe there are many baits I haven't thrown.  There are a few classic baits that I haven't caught many fish on.  Only caught one or two fish on a Creek Chub Darter and one on a Bass Oreno.  Never caught a fish on a Helin Flatfish or a Heddon Sonic.  So far I have not thrown a Whooper Plopper.  I have a Roland Martin Helicopter lure that I keep around for chuckles.

   Thank you for remembering Charlie Helin. Nowadays, most people call it the "Worden's Flatfish", but in no way does plastic replicate wood.            jj

Same for me. Or a Bomber Water Dog.

A Jitterbug like these, which haven’t played in the water since probably 1966-67. However, one day that I may change...

Never caught a fish on a hard jerkbait. Whether suspending, floating, or sinking. I have a Rapala Husky Jerk which I like, but havent caught anything on "Yet"

[Finessegenics]

Never thrown a slider head. No real reason why, just haven’t.

x2 on the Yamamoto.  I've thrown other stick worms but not the original.  I bought 2 packs on closeout like 3 years ago and they've never made it to the boat.

Wiggle Wart. Whopper Plopper. Zara Spook.

I found this when the water was low late last year. Never tried it yet but it was crusty before I cleaned it up last week. I will throw it this spring.
