the lure is a jointed rapala size 13 (biggest size) in muddler color.

looks like this:

muddler is a color that isnt even supposed to be available in the US, but my local dicks sporting goods sells a bunch of muddler colored rapalas (at regular price), but they dont sell this one! >

my friend in canada said that his local tackleshop was getting a new shipment of muddler raps, and he said he would send me one, but turns out theyre not.

so does anyone know where i can get one of these? theyre like 15 bucks on ebay, and im def. not paying that. i will pay a reasonable rapala price (3-7 bucks) for one, but no way im paying 15 bucks!

Here's a J-11.

If you really want it, you'll have to pay the price.

This color is very easy to find over here but they cost around $21.50

Sure, if you buy 100 or so.

LOL!

im sure they would sell great in my area though. many other people would buy them.

Hey Dave,

I'll check out the Dick's that's close to me this evening to see if they carry that color. I'll let you know either way.

ok thanks!

Hey Dave,

Did you Google the lure to see what is out there?

Are there any speciality tackle shops in your area that carry the Rapala brand and who may be able to secure one for you?

This could be your big summer project so get going!!!! ;D

Hey Dave,

Just got back from Dick's a little while ago. Sorry! No luck here in Hagerstown.  

Dave,

I would swing by Fred's in Waldorf next to the Verizon store and see if they might be able to order it.  That would be your best bet in this area as I doubt a retail chain would even entertain the idea.  Good luck on your quest.

Joe

I'll be swinging by the greentop in richmond va i'll see if they have it!

no luck at greentop =(

I will check at my local Dicks this weekend too. If they have it I will pick you up a couple.

thanks for all the help guys. i might try freds. there is also a store in lexington park called the tackel box, they sell mainly saltwater stuff but they might be able to order some.
