    My bad... Retailed for 125. 145 after shipping, (made one too many purchases that month, got the price mixed up with something else) with that being said bump Punker goes for $125 since I now look like an "Not Allowed" Price drop on nez-$75 OR 120 for both rats

    This is a realistic wraps collab with Jeremy, both guys worked on the bait (Jeremy’s paint, and The wrap, well you know... ) to produce probably the best bass pattern done by hand on a bait I’ve ever seen in person. Paid 170 after shipping off the BD website, if you’re that skeptical I’d be happy to screenshot my receipt off PayPal. Anyway @Abobass ... considering I’m probably the one guy out of the few that got one and plans to sell theirs in objectively new condition, I’d like to believe 185 after shipping is pretty fair.

    Here’s some baits that need to go. Prefer cash, but will consider fair trade offers. 949 878 1208 for questions. 6in. Wood Lunker Punker x Realistic Wraps collab bass- like new, (tossed once) comes with box- $185 shipped. Dockrat Lipped Rat- cool bait, the knock is subtle, just not my style. as for condition: like new,just a couple hook points.. (shown in pictures)-$75 shipped Nezuma XL Standard- no introduction needed, just never gets into my rotation anymore, condition is fairly used, but still many miles to go. can throw a trick worm back on if requested. $90 shipped

    I have a few baits that don’t really get use, but they are definitely useful baits. Make me some offers cash or trade. left to right: Dockrat Lipped Rat-(smoke purple grey)-tossed a few times, like new 8” Lunker Punker (trout) -lightly fished, has a small chip on the nose XL Standard Nezuma (tan/cocoa)- decent use..small chip on the ear, some wear around the joints, and light hook rash 6”G2 Lunker Punker (bass) -light use, some hook points will bump with prices later but would like to hear some offers. Pm or Text 9498781208 if you’d like to see close up pics of condition of inquired baits.

    I fish an 8'3 maverick (usually I'm throwing rats, Triple Trouts, Punkers, any weedless baits that call for a 10/0-12/0, occasionally ill throw a glide) , and I absolutely love it. I'm fairly new to big baits, only been chucking them for for about half a year, but I've put a lot of fish on that rod fishing a 4 oz rat. (I'm fishing mostly in a float tube, and let me tell you, theres an art to landing fish on the tube with an 8'3 rod and a 3+oz bait hanging out of their mouth. lol) Had a lot of those fish spit the rat right at the tube at first, until I found a couple bent trebles (stock hooks, rookie mistake) after a night that I crushed em on it, probably had around 12 bites that night... changed the hooks to ST 56s, and now it is dialed. All in all, the rod fishes hard baits really nicely, but I try to stay away from small diameter hooks, and my hook to land ratio has increased quite noticeably since doing so. Can't speak much on the soft bait game for this rod, specifically the stuff fished on the bottom like huds, as my rod only has one soft bait fish under its belt ..(6.75 WRS mid column) It did handle it no problem though, had to swing the fish over a dock railing that was 6ft above the water, the fish was only like 4 lbs but I felt like I couldve swung a 10 over that railing. Hope this helps

    Is that triple trout a stubby?

    I don't own one yet (been on the fence), but it could be a good tool to have especially if youre running a new lake and doing a lot of searching for fish, the glide mode seems smooth and wide enough from what Ive seen to make it happen once you run into fish... the bigger surface area makes it able to glide better in contrast to the Tiny Klash

    I had the same issue fishing a rat around the same size as that strong bass. Im not too familiar with the 806 dobyns (never held/fished one) but If I were you, I would try using a bigger hook (for that setup, Id recommend a 2x hook) but I personally dont like how the ST 41s (or whatever theyre called) point inward. For me, my rat is wide and bulky, so I tried the ST 56's and I love em. Im fishing a 4 oz rat with an 8'3 rod on 25lb big game;when i get bit, I crack em and grind. it feels so dialed with those heavy hooks. Hardly ever lose fish on that rat anymore, and when I do its always a small one on a long cast, cus i wont be able to keep tension. Every good fish is absolutely pinned. Im not saying to use ST 56's, but more so find what hooks work on your gear, and also keep in mind how the hooks will affect the sink rate of your bait and possibly how it runs in the water. Once you have everything dialed, you should be able to grind most your fish to the boat without any issues. I'm no expert on this subject but its something I've recently been giving thought and from personal experience, this thought process has given me a bit of an advantage on those fish. Hope this helps
