It's been a long time since we ran this topic, and with all the new members and several months to try new things, Mother Nature wants to have some lure reviews. This will be great information for all of our visitors :-*

List a lure or bait and then give us your honest opinion of it, good or bad. But you have to give your reasons why you liked it or didn't like it for your post to qualify.

Hints: Cranks, Spinner Baits, Plastics, Prepared baits (catfish baits), Top Water baits, any lure or bait

Examples:
(like) I love Strike Works Jigs, they come in three different styles to fit all my fishing needs and the skirt color selection is awesome!
(dislike) I didn't care for the Zoom Horny Toad because my hook up ration to strikes is horrible.


Please don't outright bash any products, list prices, locations to purchase, or website addresses.  and as always the more posts you make the better your chances of winning :-* so only list one lure or bait at a time to increase your odds   ;)
