Found my Menace Replacement Arsenal Assault Bug

This week before the plastic bite disappeared I used the Arsenal Assault bug quite a bit and really liked it. It got bit a lot more than the menace and I caught 26 fish on one, lost a second to a snag after 15 or so fish, and the third had a lot of fish on it too and is still rigged and ready in my box. I do wish they also offered it in a smaller size as well, it is not a small bait.

I know some will say they are different baits and shouldn't be compared, but for me I see them as a more economical option to the menace because they hold up longer and are close enough that I could use one or the other. I rig both on a slider head and probably fish my bait a lot longer than many would. I sometimes find that a well munched on bait sometimes produces better than a new bait out of the bag. The reaction innovation spicy beaver would be an option if they offered better colors.
