Crankbait identification request

Featured Replies

I found this crankbait hanging in a bush while duck hunting last fall.  This summer I found that smallmouth bass can't stop biting it.  In the event I break it off and lose it, I'd like to know what company made it and if it's still being manufactured.  I checked fairly recent catalogs and didn't find anything.  Would anybody know what company manufactured it? 

Thanks.

It's not a crankbait, it looks like Bagley Rattling Twitcher that pre dates LC Sammy, top water walking lure. Twitches in good condition are $20-$25.

I have a bunch of these, it is a Yo-Zuri Banana Boat. That color is the Japanese version made by Duel called the Fuze Banana Boat. These are killer topwater baits, similar to a Sammy but thinner with a different walking action. I use them for smallmouth when the water is calm and they will flat out catch fish. When they were being discontinued I bought 2 dozen to make sure I'd always have them and at $1.99 each how could I not buy that many?

Looks similar to a Sammy top water.

Yo-Zuri is my guess.

 

 

If you ever can't find these and want to try something different a Lucky Craft Sammy 100 has put many smallies in the boat for me
