You have 75 bucks

[Joshawa]

I just want to see how differently everyone responds. Sorry if this has been done before but I could not find anything in search.

Heres the scenario: Your away from home on a fishing trip and your tackle is all gone, well you still have all your terminal tackle so you don't need to buy that. Lucky you your poles and line, etc. are still there.

You have 75 bucks to buy lures, what do you buy for fishing in any number of the different lakes you will be going to on your trip.

Restrictions, just lures, no terminal tackle. Please include colors and sizes as well.

~Thanks~

If your lures are at home (ie not lost) I would use this as an excuse to get some pricey swimbaits.  Throw in 4 or 5 bags of plastics to top it off (Senkos, Trick Worms, Buzz frogs, Twin tailed Grubs or Craws, Flukes, in a green, red or black except for the Flukes)

If you're lures are toast, I'd go with the above 4 or 5 bags of plastics,  a spook, a Black Jitterbug, Chartreuse Spinnerbait, Black Spinnerbait, a silver RatLtrap, Manns minus 1 in baby bass, a Mepps Black Fury (#3 or 4), a Silver Minnow (Rapala or other), a diver like a Rapala DT 6 or 10 in natural colors, and then a frog like a Spro.  After that you'd probably have enough for a Green/Brown jig and a Black/Blue jig to round it out.

[fishinfiend]

Zoom ol' monsters in watermelon and pumkinseed

Zoom MagII in watermelon and pumkinseed

senkos in watermelon

1/2 oz jig pumpkin seed

1/2 oz jig black blue

Zoom craw trailers

rage tail frogs green pumpkin/pearl

buzz bait in white/chart

zara spook jr G-FINISH BLUE SHAD

zara spook G-FINISH BLUE SHAD

Strike king sexy shad crank (4')

Strike king sexy shad crank (8')

Strike king sexy shad crank (12')

Strike king sexy shad crank (14')

That should just about cover it. I am not sure of the cost but the monkey never minds if you spend a little more, right ;D

If there is anything left, go get some snacks and frosty beverages.

[mudkart]

$75 huh.

1 Arbogast Hula Pooper in Perch. ----------------1x $4.99 = $4.99

I don't care who you are, that's funny. ;D

[wisturkeyhunter]

1 super spook- black shiner

Great top water and a fun bait to throw-$5

1 sebile magic swimmer 125- perch-$15

Great for the top or a few feet done

1 booyah moon talker 1/2 ounce-black and red$5

made for night time but a great spinner bait any time and at 1/2 ounce it can be fished a little deeper, also with the big single colorado can be used for waking the surface. Very versitile spinner

That leaves $50 for senkos and fat ikas or whatever other plastic catches my eye.

[Jimzee]

I would buy 4 no. 5 floating Rapalas and spend the rest of the money on gas. :-/

[Cyork]

Gitzit Pocket Pack (25 tubes in 5 colors, 10 heads)

Rapala X-rap size 8 gold

1/4 oz Rat-L-Trap Baby Bass

1/3 oz Mepps Aglia Firetiger

Watermelon Yum Dingers or Case Magic Sticks (4")

2 packs of fat ika- champagne

3 packs of berkley powerbait  tubes- smoke

1 pack of berkley powerbait worms- tequila sun

3 H&H spinnerbaits- white/chart.

Plus a 32oz Gatorade in lemonade flavor

That's close to $75... ;D

[senko_77]

If all my tackle was gone and I had $75, my main thing would be to keep it simple.  

I would get some Trick Sticks in the 5" size from *** in any Natural color like Watermelonseed or Watermelon/Purple Swirl

Then a straight tailed 7" worm like the Zoom Trick worm or the *** Finesse worm.  Again, in natural colors.  My favorite color is watermelon/green or watermelon/gold

Then I would pick up a few walk the dog type baits like the Super Spook Jr. or the Sammy 100

A few Picasso F6 spinnerbaits would be next in line.  I like Chart/White in any water clarity...for some reason, it always works for me, even in gin clear water

And lastly I would get swimbaits.  The Storm Kick N' Minnow is an excellent budget swimbait that is used by Bassresource's big fish maniac, Randall.  If your feeling like you wanna beat up your wallet a bit more, then get one of Spro's new BBZ-1 Shad or Tru-Tungsten's new Tru-Life Shad.

If there was any left over I would probably pick up a Propel in the Berry flavor, and a ton of those mini chocolate doughnuts.   God I love those things  ;D

Thanks for starting this thread.  There alot of fun.

I would buy some green pumpkin worms, junebug worms, black buzzbait, spro frog, chart & white spinnerbait, ans a couple of shallow running crank baits.

X2 but:

Add on some Watermellon Senkos and Black Power worms

[Joshawa]

Thanks for all the responses guys, this was exactly what I am looking for.

I am planning on expanding my arsenal a little more and wanted some ideas for some new lures that I haven't tried yet and you guys have given me some ideas. Also I didn't want to break the bank so I figured that a $75 dollar limit would keep things in check.

Keep 'em coming guys
