badfish03 Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Anyone have any opinions or information on the Smithwick Suspending Pro Rogue 5 1/2" 9/16 oz. Are they fish getters or just production trash on the market? Found a guy on ebay who has a bunch of blanks of these and was thinking about getting a few to paint and try out. But I have no experience with the Smithwick brand other than their topwaters. TIA Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeeter Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 I have some. They have produced for me as a jerk bait. Skeeter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Nothing wrong with rogues from my experience. Really one of the better jerks for the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basskat Posted March 9, 2005 Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 The Rogue is one of the better jerkbaits. It is one of our main "go to" baits for winter/early spring. How many does he have? I'd be interested in a dozen or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badfish03 Posted March 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2005 Last I saw he had 122 but I am waiting to find out if he gives a price break on multiple buys. Right now he has them set up with shipping included in the price per each one. Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basskat Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 If you can get a price break let me know, I'll split some with you. (Unless you want all of them) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 Robert - I would also be interested in picking up some if they're available. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtrs5kprs Posted March 10, 2005 Report Share Posted March 10, 2005 Great winter/spring bait. The big rogue throws, fishes, and catches better than the standard 4 & 1/2" rogue. Think it is a little trickier to paint and finish. OBTW...you can buy the same bait for $1.89/ea straight from the PRADCO website (www.lurenet.com I believe) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

badfish03 Posted March 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 That makes me sick The Wally worlds around here never get cheaper than a couple bucks before they are all gone. They also dont push cranks as much as soft plastics. Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basskat Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 The Wal-Mart's areound here really suck when it comes to fishing supplies. They have very few crankbaits and the ones they have are off the wall junk. Thank goodness we have a Bass Pro now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
