different company lures

[domavius]

Hai, whats up?

I just wanted to ask about the following lures: Luckycraft, Salmo, Megabass, Jackall and Yo-Zuri

Can you give me any advice on these lures, since I looked throught their websites. Have anyone used these, what are the prices, where I can get them from (Mostly likely in Europe or buying it in America with international posting), do they last long (luckycraft being there paint coming off fast)?

Thanks

Most of the Japanese lures are expensive as too are the Luckycraft ones.
Try having a look around the Lurenet website. They list most of the American lure manufacturers. The prices are very good.
After you find something you like you can then look for it on eBay - sellers there charge much less for international shipping than regular online shops.

I just bought some Bomber A-Salt 146A lures - just waiting for them to arrive.....

The one common factor you listed on all of those lures is that they are VERY expensive. No doubt they are some of the sharpest looking lures you can get.

One of the best places to go is here -

the salmo skinner is a great crankbait for pike (apparently), as is the salmo slider, although this is a jerbait, and i don't know if you have ever fished a jerkbait before, they take a little while to get used to. Again, this is just from what i've read, and what people have told me, i don't own any salmo lures or any of the other brands you listed

Ye, the local tackle shop in my country sells them around 60-70 Litas ( which is 14-16£ / 22-26$ converted) for the Luckycraft and Megabass lures but i get 10-20% discounts because the guy knows me for a long time (IF i would buy them), jackall is a rarity in the store, salmo and rapala are plentyful in the store you can get flatrap/maxrap for about 30-40 litas (7-9£/11-15$) not including the discounts . Yo-zuri we dont have alot but a handful but cheap around the same price tag as rapala but slightly cheaper.

I've known lurenet for sometime now because i wanted to find out about the famous heddon zara spook and the well known bomber lures.

the website u gave me Fishooked is awesome

but i wanted to know have u noticed in any difference in using the lures, do fish react to them differently, is the paints/finished fragile, do they lose effectiveness after many strikes and takes, do you know anyone who uses them and give u any advice on them, etc?

ps. Lol u reply quickly Tom forgot to refresh the page, my countries fishing programme fish with salmo alot and i have fished with jerkbaits

thanks all for replying

I can't say that I have ever owned any, maybe there are others here that do, as most know my tackle box is 99.8% Rapalas ;D
