  1. Who are the biggest knockoffs? Reaction Innovation? BBZ sure looks like a Rago bait? Baitsmith Magnum? How many baits look like a Hudd? According to Alan Cole everyone knocked him off. :lol::lol::lol:

     

     

    I think you mean Reaction Strike. Not Reaction Innovations.

  2. I was fishing the Bassmasters Central Open on the Atchafayala Basin out of Morgan City, LA a little over a year ago and had a 7 footer come after my shell cracker ... MAN those things love frogs and wake baits. Being in a tournament and not wanting to ruin a shell cracker with the new bluegill color I quickly had to reel it back on several occasions. Same thing chasing bass at New Orleans city park Seminole Lake and Toledo Bend.

  3. When I lived in Louisiana I was always more worried about the Water Moccasins than the Gators. Those bastards would pop up right infront of me all the time and just stare at me. Thats why I started using my broom stick and some 65lb braid to lob their heads off.

  4. Toothy snot rockets are fun to catch. I fish Vermillion (Tower MN) and Birch (Babbit MN) as much as I can in the summer. I will eventually be moving back to Cali because I just cant get big Florida strain largemouth bass out of my system. Super addicted.

  5. I remember the first few I bought. First was a big castaic hard head trout second a hard head bluegill a couple ms slammers then went through a bunch of Charlies then i got into big hanmers la sliders and fish traps I got the original 9 inch wood punker in rainbow trout numbered 9 while I was working at extreme angler in Oakley. After that it gets kind f blurry.

  6. Well said justin, Thats a nice way to say it... I tell you what who wants to do a build off.. ??? Maybe cheese and Arden can enter. they know so much about baits... How about a legit build off...??? See how many of these Greaterst Master lure designers are game??? STRAIT OUT CALLING OUT.... Even the guys that are part time and still live at home??? Who's game???

    Mickey.

     

    See you are still missing the point. I basically said the same thing that Justin said only I didnt give you the compliment of saying your baits are better. Yes you make sick baits. Absolutely your baits are masterfully crafted from the detail of the paint job to the way the bait swims. I'm not playing any favorites thats that. Also when did I say I design baits. I invest a lot of money into buying and fishing baits so I pay close attention to how a bait is made. Did I ever tell you or anyone I make baits or that I am a master bait builder? No. I still have no idea why you have this malice against me. Because I wont say Nate builds junk?

  7. Well I guess the following companies stole Nates hinges to name a couple:

    Strike King - (example: King Kong Shad)

    ABT - (example: WagTail)

     

    Then again by that logic every bait with a joint owe a man named John Kreisser a lot of money as he patented the first jointed body fishing lures in 1907 in Cincinnati, OH. Also, whoever improved that patent with the pin/eye (as opposed to the eye to eye joint) and every is knocking them off too.

    Why not?? If any bait maker is succesful to any degree, 10 baits is nothing!! Unless you only make baits to order then I see your point!!

     

    Its not just 10 baits. Its money in advertising here, baits there, giveaways here, contests there, tackle packs for this tourney and that. We are talking after a while the pennies add up and belts are pretty tight these days. Im not saying anyone can or cant cough up the baits, but fingers are often spread across many cookie jars so to say. As far as forums go last time I checked this forum has less than 100 members. Maybe less baits being required would lead to more bait makers getting onboard which is more important to me than getting freebies to play with and report back about. Dont get me wrong user reviews would be awesome and all. But when a bait maker is under fire I think it only fair they be able to speak up or maybe even solve the problem in a public way so we all see how each company operates.

  8. "Piano" WTF is right, you don't see it or you want to ignore it

     

    Don't be scared!! Why pm me and then delete it before I can read it?? Please give us feedback on the bait. Would actually love it if Nate participated on the board and gave back to all the anglers fishing his baits and answering questions about how awesome it is!!

     

    I'd like to see that too but I dont see many small bait makers giving up 10 baits a year just to have to fight with people that do lousy photoshop jobs to prove something that cant be proved behind a keyboard.

  10. The bait looks solid, I bet it will smoke a freestyle and cost a lot less.

     

    Sounds like what the owners of a known knock off company told me a couple years ago at the classic after seeing me wear a shirt from a good friends company.

     

    I will say that I dont think this is a knock off as it pretty much looks the same as the trout series he has been making for a while now.
