Question on Bait

Post by TravisRush » Sun Nov 11, 2007 5:35 pm

I recently went down to Arizona for baseball and my dad and I visited the Bass Pro Shop down there. They were putting on this exhibit where a guy fishes in the little trout pond/stream they have built into it, and he was using this lure that was shaped like a trout and about 6 inches in length. It was able to move freely in the water and had two or three hooks in it. I want to try one out but forget the name. Can someone help?

Rapala or some other jerkbait/swimbait most likely...

Yep sounds like a swim bait to me. Was it a hard or soft bodied type of bait?

Go to Bass Pro Shop web site. They probably have it featured somewhere on it.
Look for Wannafish A Lure on FaceBook

He said, “Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.” When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish.

Swimbait sounds familiar. it was semi-soft bodied. Any input?

Castaic or Huddleston swimbait? I would hazard a guess at Castaic.

''Hard-bodied, jointed swimbaits are the hot lures for 2008''[/b]
says Field&Stream Tru-Tungsten, Lucky Craft, and Castaic
where the top three. The Lucky Craft lure has real fish skin
epoxy-coated body how cool is that. They only cost about
20-60$ each. Ouch! They sure look real
