biged Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 OK, I tooled up on soft baits, but now I need some hard baits. I want to start out like I did on the soft baits. That was buy a few at a time and see what works. But here the question, I would like to try a couple of the 3:16 baits, but their not available right now. So what is the next best choice?

Fish-Styk Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Slammers and Triple Trouts would be a good and proven alternative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chuckin-swimb8's Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 I just picked up a matt lures hard gill ss and its pretty sweet. only had a chance to fish it for an hour or so, didnt catch anything but the action of the bait is awesome and really is a slooow sink. can wake it if you want even, great when twitched also, 180's, darts ect.. great bait to use till a FS gill pops up..

Maxwell S. Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 What about Reaction Strike? Well you know that theory we pass around, "Go big or go home." Well, you kinda have to drop a small sum of your life for a bait; that is, after the disease completely consumes you. - I mean I think almost all can remember the days when they started out swimbaiting with commercialized swimbaits: Spros, Strike Kings, REACTION STRIKES, ect. But like any consumer of a product, especially in the world of swimbaiting, you start buying bigger and better gear. To where the prior brands become, more or less, inferior in ones eyes. - I was going to post this up: viewtopic.php?f=28&t=2904 But darn you Luke!

deep Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 I wouldn't waste to much time with the bait pimps that send private info!!! I'm assuming that was directed at me? Typed out a long response, and then figured that I was PM-ing him, instead of posting. FYI, these were the baits mentioned in the PM: baby wake, wake jr, slammers, AC minnows, BBZ, Rago tool, Triple trout (floating and sinking), Matt's hardgill and hardbass, 8" FS trout, nezumma rat. All the baits I have had personal experience with. @biged, feel free to copy-paste the entire thing if the big man needs more assurance that I wasn't talking ill of his baits or peddling knock-offs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
