Daiwa Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 If you have not tried this lure, I would recomend you do! This lure is great for almost ALL species of fish, Today I caught a 32 1/2" Pike and have caught some bass on them, smallest being a 10". They are heavy, so there are long casts, but dont take much to reel in. Its a really nice lure. Quote
Super User firefightn15 Posted August 17, 2008 Super User Posted August 17, 2008 Been fishing them alot of years. And I agree, they are a good bait used as a jerk bait or steady retrieve. Quote
JShrock07 Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 What color do you prefer?? Where do I buy them? -Nitroman Quote
Super User firefightn15 Posted August 17, 2008 Super User Posted August 17, 2008 I'm not even sure Nitro. Mine are old. 25-30 yrs. The 2 that I fish most, when I do fish them are perch and frog. I also have a white one with a red hood. Would like a black one, but can't find and don't want to ruin any of these. Found them at Cabels's. Much shorter than the ones I have. 2 lengths, longest being 2 3/4". The ones I throw are 4" Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted August 17, 2008 Super User Posted August 17, 2008 My father used to use them before I started going to school. He used a metal casting rod, a direct drive casting reel, and black braided line. The colors he had were white with a red head and green frog. I am 65 years old now. Quote
Super User firefightn15 Posted August 17, 2008 Super User Posted August 17, 2008 Yeah, when I looked at them at Cabela's a few minutes ago the description said they have been around for more than 80 yrs. Quote
MNGeorge Posted August 17, 2008 Posted August 17, 2008 Try this link: They have 3 sizes, 3/8, 1/2 and 5/8 ounce. The webpage says nothing about length. Quote
Daiwa Posted August 17, 2008 Author Posted August 17, 2008 I think you can get them at Gander Mountain or Sportsmans Warehouse. I cant remember. Next time I am at one, I'll check for you guys. I caught my 32 1/2" Pike (sorry I keep mentioning it, but I am really proud of myself) on firetiger, the longer ones. Quote
