Yamamoto at Walmart

[NYWayfarer]

Blue packaging reminds me of the old Kinami baits they used to sell.

When Walmart discontinued those and marked them down to $1 a bag I hit 17 stores to stock up. Still have a stockpile of my favorite color and buy them whenever I find them at a show on sale.

Academy had those Kanami's for $.88, and I bought a ton.  Lost all my backstock when I got a divorce and the ex cleaned out my storage unit?.

The new $5 bags at wally world contain 7 worms.  

 

Good catch.  I have not seen the 7 count bags.  I don’t know if that’s exclusive to Walmart or offered in the new packaging.

I'd bet it's a walmart-only deal.

I've got one of those too. I lost all of my racing trophies, some tools and other miscellaneous stuff.

Next time you get a pack of z man toss them in the sink, my buddy said half float and half sink

Maybe he should try throwing them in the float next time....

 

 

Sorry.

Just checked my local Walmart and found one pack of baby bass 5" senkos for $0.98. Guess I missed the boat on this one.

My only Senko regret is that they  didn’t come out until 1996, which by that time I had left fishing behind as I focused on deer hunting. Had the Senko been around in the 80’s my life may have turned out differently! ?

Walked by the tackle isle while at walmart today, and noticed that they have the Googan stick worms right next to the Yamamoto's.  Both have 7 worms to a pack, with the Yam amoto's running $4.97 a pack, and the Googan's running $5.87 a pack.  So...Googan thinks their branding is worth $.90 more per pack?  Ludicrous....

I go to Yamamoto for exactly three colors. Academy started selling the most important one after this year's rebrand (orange pumpkin w/ grn&blk flake). I'll be curious to see if the H2OX ones bleed orange color like the yamamotos do lol. Unless the H2Os are just awful I don't see myself buying much yamamoto (other than shad shape worms) again anytime soon
