They are not out yet but has any one seen the new Lucky Craft "real skin" pointers? What did you think? I personally thought they looked sweet but I am curious to how much they will cost. If you want to look they are on the lucky craft website under product news.

they are going to be $49.99 each

Wow!  I read about them several weeks ago, but had not heard their price point yet.  I'm a bonafide tackle junky, but I will not spend $50 on a bait.  I'm glad I don't live in California  

I'll spend $450 on a reel but no way in hell I will spend $50 for a lure.  

I'll spend $150 on a bait, but not a freakin Lucky Craft @ $50.

$50 dollars is way to steep, I'm sure there are people out there that will buy em, but its just too expensive even for some tournament anglers. I just recently got a luckycraft for my birthday and I'm not going to lie, it is one of the best lures  I've ever owned. I really do like them, but 15 is my limit.

I wonder how the action would be affected by a steel leader? Just wondering because thats what I would use if I ever paid $50 for a lure.

that is crazy- for a pointer?!?! :-/

Exactly!

Is $49.99 confirmed or just a rumor?

they have real fish skin around the outside of them molded to the lure, that they peel off of an actual fish.   You'll pay for them once everyone starts talking about how good they are.

$49.99 will buy a lot of live bait though.

This is the Slender Pointer version that i bought from Japan for about $25.

Is that "cuddlefish"? I was looking at them too.
