wiredhatred Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 Whats the most expensive lure you have ever lost? Ive noticed since ive recently started swimbaiting that some lures are outragiously priced! 250-350 dollars for a trout?!?!? Just last sunday at Lake McClure I lost a 20 dollar bass harraser and cringed (as well as almost 30 dollars worth of tackle ). If the weather was a little warmer I would have swam after it haha. Boy I tell you, I felt such a rush on that first cast watching it fly threw the air. Just the thought of the possibility of hooking and catching a huge bass was almost too much and made my heart pump like crazy. I finally caught my first swim bait bass (2 pounds) yesterday on a hand poured 4 inch swimbait. Chartreuse with fine gold flake belly, smoke with fine red and black fleck for the top. I was trying to immatate the cosmic debris color of the big hammer tails. Also had an 8 inch fish try to eat it as well as a 4 inch fish bitting at the tail. Largemouths have eyes way bigger then their stomachs, and sometimes bigger then themselves . Gotta love em!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
