Time to let these go, they didn't get the time they deserved and won't in the near future so here we are. Mag-X is a custom pattern I used to beat em up on, I believe its called purple magic. Thrown a few times, couple nicks in it from being in the box with other hooks. Shoot me an offer. Grey mist trout 7" X-Minnow, thrown once. $85tytd Hitch X-minnow thrown once $70tyd I glued the harnesses into both of the x-minnows for extended durability.

Making some life changes and offloading some baits I won't be using much moving forward. This bait has caught a ton of good fish for me and want to hand it over to the next guy who will continue to get it bit. Covered in teeth marks but swims just as sexy as ever. Will not sell to collectors or flippers. If you think you've got use for it shoot me a message and we'll come up with a price. Only trade would be for a 9" hph Thanks SU

90% of dudes you'll see are following what they learned from 90% of the swimbait related internet content, a lot of the info out there is the same old stuff, a lot of is outdated, not saying it wont work, but if you're trying to set yourself apart try to be doing the complete opposite of that advice. Retrieve your baits at the highest speeds possible, fish areas that aren't visible from the surface, try baits with more flash, throw shad/carp patterns when everyone else is chucking trout, fish in the thick stuff, fish your hard baits down deep, etc.... Big fish are exceptionally in tune with their surroundings so you are correct, they have seen it all and they're incredibly wary, but remember that when they've seen it all, that doesn't mean they have seen it all fished properly or fished at certain depths. Those fish have seen 20 different 250s by the time noon hits, but of those 20 deps I'd be willing to bet all 20 were fished in the same 10ft column of water, and all 20 were probably fished at the same or similar cadence. Throwing things like a magnum spoon can also be effective for trout killers, it mimics the size and flash of a stocker well enough that even the most wary of fish might slip up and choke it down. Learn to play on their instincts and get weird with it, you'd be surprised what can work on pressured fish when you play outside the box a bit. Good luck beat em up.
