Teckel Kicknocker?

[Darth-Baiter]

i am going to Oklahoma again to fish for Stripers.  i just show up with a duffel bag and a travel rod.  i carry on my bag, so i cannot even bring a good bottle of whiskey or California wine(!).  my brother is picking me up at the Dallas airport, so i suppose i could stop and buy some steaks and booze, but the camp host is a megastar. he plans the menu and everything.  five steaks would ruin his plans.  

 

i was thinking of some simple gifts of gratitude.  i'll buy all the beer and ice no problemo.  

 

one gift would be a walking bait.  i think i want to try the Kicknocker.  not exactly the most cost effective top water, but whatever.  i missed the 15% sale at the Hookup Tackle, since they sold out.  i need FIVE.  hand them out to each camp guest as a momento to the fishing.  it is a topwater that i know the team wouldnt buy for themselves.  they go with Berkeley offerings.

 

thoughts?  they have a Teckel USA Kicknocker at TW.  is that the same thing?  (last year they only hit on BONE color)

Yes, Teckle USA is the same thing. Can never go wrong with bone, that's for sure. I got the White Walker color, but admittedly I got that color mostly because I thought it looked cool to me. I have the pup version.

These are all the same baits, they all use a similar or the same mold. I don't have all three so I can't speak for their hardware. One of them might have better hooks, etc.

thanks.

 

i'm going with the OG version.  that Xcite thing says they were dreamed up by some pro.  that thing was invented by a Japanese dude as far as i can read it.  Hitoro something.
