Anyone try the new laser lure?
Sep 30^th, 2008 at 12:50am

I'm very speculative on this laserlure. But I have been at Bass Pro Shops and seen what a laser pointer does do to fish. Quite interesting. Anyhow, has anyone tried it??????? I would like some feedback as to if I should try one or not. The lure seems kinda corny but hey, it might work. You can go see it at laserlure.com. No I am advertising for them. Just need some info. Thanks! Undecided

Im sure it would catch fish, but I don't think it would produce better then the name brand products that are put through testing, and have been catching fish for years.

Personally, when I see baitfish start blinking red every few seconds, I will be the first to buy one of these baits. But until then, I'll stick with my rapalas, lucky crafts, bombers, and so on.

I know I'm gonna get slammed, but they actually work. I've caught a decent number of fish on them, but my friend who gave me some to try, caught his new pb on the shallow diving laser crank. It was something like 10-4. He loves them, and he outfishes me with it. I don't know if it catches more, but it does catch.

Speed - I'll bring a few with me.

The thing I like about them is that once the light runs out, you have a lure with lucky craft qualities

My buddy showed me a video of Alton Jones out on Amistad SLAYING them with the deep diving laser crank. If I can find it, I'll post it.

I assumed they were a gimmick when I first saw them but then I saw a guy demonstrate one in a bass tank. He demonstrated a senko, a spinnerbait, and a shakey head and none of them interested any bass. Then he used a laser crankbait and it got a lot of attention from the bass. Now, it could very well have been the case that the fish were used to the other lures or that they were just keying in on crankbaits but it was still interesting and made me think twice about the whole laser lure concept.

Wrong. The batteries aren't "dumped" into the water. I'm sure that your outboard has never dumped any of it's "toxic waste" into the lakes you fish.

Captain Rhino - The batteries cannot be replaced, but I believe they last 100 hours in the water. They immediately stop blinking when they exit the water. The water completes the circuit to make the laser activate, and when the lure exits the lake, the circuit is broken. Once the battery is out, then you have a lure that is similar to lucky craft quality.

I get the point. But, how many cranks have you lost last year? Would you throw that many batteries in your home lake? WHat if more and more did? Why limit it to batteries? Most of what we lose while fishing is relatively benign. Batteries are not.
