What discontinued baits do you refuse to put away...

[OkobojiEagle]

I still throw a Frenzy Popper and Storm Subwart even though they've been discontinued for years.  When I lose them I may shed a tear, but I won't replace them in my arsenal till they're gone.  What discontinued baits are you stubbornly still throwing?

Dalton special

Pico Pop

Rebel Popper forerunner of the PopR

I still fish with a Storm sub wart too. It comes out when the bite gets tough.

Duo Spinbait 60 and the original Sebile Soft Magic Swimmers in bluegill

Storm subwart user here too. I have 5 of them left. Scored one this past winter for 12 bucks on a local bidding website too.

 

I need to be careful where I use them though. Pike love them and since they are so small, even a mid size one can completely swallow it and snip me off.

Big O and a Mann's Twofer.  There were a couple of other Mann's discontinued baits that I've lost over the years that were so unique that I never did find anything to replace them.

   Rapala CRR-5 in Shad. Over all, it's the best squarebill I've ever seen, and I have a small stash of them.   ?                     jj

The 4.75" Yum Swurm (a soft jerkbait).  Works well for skipping under docks even with a decent amount of wind.

 

I just keep using mend-it on the ones I don't lose.

[Bluebasser86]

YUM Bad Momma 4.25". I guess it's discontinued, not listed on their website and impossible to find anywhere other than on the Bay. Not really sure why they cut them but I'll keep using them until they're gone I guess.

Great river smallie lure. ?

[Black Hawk Basser]

I still throw a couple different Frenzy Poppers, as well.

 

I'll be using various Berkley Havoc plastics for years, as I seriously stocked up on a few styles and colors a couple years ago.

post a pick I don't think I've ever heard of that.

[Happybeerbuzz]

Heddon Baby Lucky 13.  It is not the best casting lure, but it produces.  Plus, they were one of my fathers favorite lures.

I might be wrong but I think you can still get the components for the salty spider. I hope so. I’ll look see. 

[whitwolf]

A number of Rebel baits.

[PotatoLake]

I keep seeing the Keitech Crazy Flapper go on clearance at various retailers. That is my favorite pitching /  flipping bait. I’ll shed a tear if they go bye-bye.

Poe's Super Cedar 300 ?
