Livingston Electronic Bait Sound?

Featured Replies

Has anyone seen these? Supposedly they emmit an electronic bait fish sound to attract fish. Is this just a gimmick comparable to "mighty bite" or does it actually work. I can't bring myself to believe it would actually work. I Bought one to see what it was about and I've never heard any baitfish make these noises lol. Anyone have any experience with them? Let's hear your take on it!

I have a few of them, do they work?  well, I have tied one on when nothing else was working and caught fish, but I have also used them with no results. The sound they make is like the sounds Hydro waves make, its intended to make the sound of bass feeding on baitfish, not baitfish themselves. 

I have two.  Tried one day after not getting fish and whammo-fish on.  One after another.  Next time out nothing.  I have the original models, the new models with three sounds, I have not tried.    I would like to try this in a controlled environment to see.  

I've gotten mixed results too.

The electronic sound is very faint. They have rattles too which totally drown out the electronic sound. It BS

I like the color of the "dream master classic" . I'm going to order it and throw it at night this year. That color works for me at night. We shall see how it produces. Looks good anyway.

These work.. I have a few, and it seems that every time I'm having a bad day.. I throw it on and get bit. And if they were a gimmick, I don't think Randy Howell would endorse it so highly, and also win the Bassmaster Classics on Guntersville..!

I've got one and have also had mixed results. The eyes on the crankbait also light up and glow red every few seconds. I'm not sure if they produce great or not. I've caught some decent smallmouth on it when I used it. I might need to do some more experimenting with them.

It's still debatable that he actually won it on that bait. He was using a Rapala DT6 for the majority of the tourney, and if I remember correctly he only switched AFTER he had his limit for the final day. Granted he caught some kickers to cull some of those out, but we also don't know that he wouldn't have caught what he did if he had kept using the DT6 or switched over to another crankbait with a different profile. 

I would probably try one if it had replaceable batteries.
