Megabass Gatta-X Parahatch

Looks like the Cicadas here in VA

Just a little bit too expensive for me but I'm sure some one has or will buy it since it's only 55.00 .

I'm not normally one to complain about the price of a lure and I own a number of megabass lures but $55 for a supped up Jitterbug/Crazy Crawler mix is a bit much for me.  I'm sure the bait works but I don't see myself picking one up.

I'd the rather buy the siglett (Idk how to spell it) by megabass, it's still expensive, 20+ bucks but still has the lifelike profile of a cicada but without the 55 dollar price tag  

a little rich for my blood

Wow, that thing is hideous looking!   probably catches fish though

they can be purchased for substantially less.

Ichiban sells them for $38.50.  Still a bit steep though.

no secret, American Legacy has them for about $46.00 buy it now with a "best offer" option on an auction website, a couple other merchants in the $36.00 range.

When they were first introduced, I paid about $22.00 just to check it out.  That was about 3 years ago or so.  Have to remember, there is also a collector's market for the bait as well.

I 've got several Parahatch and Turbuleance Gatta Xs .... never fished them, they were so hard to find at one time that I 've kept them as collector 's items.
