Hi,

 

Found out to my disappointment that a particular pattern was discontinued from the Smithwick Rogue Rattling Floating jerkbait - the Tiger Minnow. Almost unobtanium online. Anybody knows about some obscure/any sources to get it? So far there is one seller on eBay with a stock but they want about $20 delivered apiece.

 

Thanks in advance if you know.

USPS has increased their fees, just like everything else. Shipping a small flat rate box is over $10. If he’s shipping it that way, he’s asking $10 for the lure. You must not want it very badly

Email the seller and ask if they combine shipping - but you already said it's discontinued so if you aren't willing to pay 20 dollars for 1, you don't want it too badly and can probably make another color work.

 or just paint your own. 

These them? They might be suspenders though.

They might have just changed the color name - I found this on Lurenet - https://www.lurenet.com/smithwick-floating-rattlin-rogue

Funny how the names change. My stash are labeled tigr minnow. They were acquired from lurenet.com 

 

 

 

Thank you all!

The eBay link is good - got some!

And I do want them - badly or not I was buying a lot recently.

Got some in that alternative "Lerch" pattern - they look similar. Side by side fishing will show this season.
