I was thinking about opening a tackle store that sells discontinued lures and other fishing products when I retire.

Then I remembered that retail sucks.

But it was a fun idea while it lasted.  :P

I only have 2 left of the Excalibur Fat Free Fry in the Advantage series, I believe it's their shad color. It has a white belley, clear sides, black back and a reflective piece of metal on the inside. This bait is an absolute fish catching machine in clear water. If any one would like to sell.... :P

Coppernose Bluegill Fat Free Shad, well all the old Fat Free Shad patterns.  

Blue Fox Big Bass Spinnerbait

Rapala Husky Minnow

It would be nice if there was a way for manufacturers to tell us they were discontinuing something before they did.   It's one of the reasons I'm such a slave to the bait monkey.  You never know when your favoritr bait or color will be discontinued.

I'm pretty sure you can get hand poured 15inch water dogs(like a lizard)

or is that too big for you? ;D  ;D

I like to fish with stuff that is too main stream, I mean one of my favorites Gambler 10inch june bug ribbon tail is never gonna be discontinued :)

I got a few left but love the autograph series from years back the k v d jerk bait and the zell Roland spook was the bomb for me in the spring

I've got some other 13" lizards too but the 12's are WAYYYY bulkier. probably weigh close to 2 ozs by themselves

Why not make a mold and pour some more?   :)

I think I have all the lures in the first 5 responses.  ;D

My one wish is the Herb's Dilly - in the smaller size (3/8 I believe).

This is my buddies favorite lure, he has me scouring the Earth in search of more.

Some of the lures mentioned I have seen for sale recently? Specifically the Berkley power slug 6" and the black w/blue tail 4" power worm. Looks like we all need to dig out the discountinued baits we no longer use for some trading.

TrippyJai, Texas Bass Tackle website has the Berkely Power Slugs it looks like they have been reintroduced. I've never used them tell me what you like about them?

1 lure I really miss is the bagley's small fry perch.... dang I only have 1 left and skeered to lose it......

Another topwater lure that is so funky looking but nails big bass is the Powerpack topwater lure.......

both can be bought on ebay but extra pricey...... like $10-15 for perch and around $10 for powerpack....... :P

My favorite spinnerbait was made by a company called Bulldog. I got it about 14 years ago. It was a single spin colorado in a strange color; gold, copper, gray color. It was a catchin machine until i lost it to a snag. never have found another even close.  :'(

Gene Larew Hook Tail worm when they were poured versus injected like they are today.  They were softer than Yamamoto's.  Color: Tomato

1970's Bagley baits (bring back that old price, too!)

Strike King Timberspin.

Anyone have any they want to unload?

  • Super User

Strike King Grass King -The best broken cover spinnerbait for big bass ever made (or that I ever tied on LOL). I even wrote them about re-issuing it, and they replied that they had no plans of doing so anytime soon. I have 4 left.

I also have a couple Timber-Spins, but sorry CWB, I'm keepin' 'em.
