[bpm2000]

DanielT, do u have to swim that bait fast to get the tail kicking or can u slow roll it?

[T Dot]

T Dot, sorry it took me a while to reply. I have occassional fishing partners, but no one on a consistent basis. Always looking to head out with pretty much anyone though.

not sure if you received my email, so please try to send me one.

:king:

we are going out within the next week or so. im trying to figure out everyones schedule so we can get a game plan going.

email me when you get the chance.

you can reel them pretty slow and the tail still kicks, it's a good looking bait.

[danielt]

Yup and you want to reel it as slow as possible. The nice thing about them is if you do reel them in fast they dont tip over, they stay upright all the time.

Daniel, are you fishing the Castaic SBT series ??

[danielt]

yea. SBT 4"

Good luck finding them. I ordered some (4" SBT baby bass and trout) 2 weeks ago from Tacklewarehouse.com and they are on backorder tell Oct. I have to re-up because I got my last one hung up and lost it. When it comes to swimbaits you have to know that your going to loose them. If your not loosing tackle then your either not fishing or your fishing in the wrong spots.

I would but I like to lump my orders together for one big one. That way I don't pay shipping or pay very little. Tacklewarehouse and Basstackledepot are usually the sites that carry all of the stuff I like to throw. As far as a store, I haven't found one around my area that even carries anything close to a swimbait that I would consider buying. CK14, where is that 3 Rivers and how much did the swimbait cost? Also, does that store carry other swimbaits?

i have a buddy that works there. if he has a supplier, he can order it.

:king:

right now they have castaics, and nothing else that peeked my interest. they do have small basstrix minnows, but they are mainly used for dropshot.

www.3riversmarine.com is just east of kirkland, near costco. other than that, its probably best you order online.

one question to ya, have you ever had a bass totally unleash fury on your drag? if so how big was it. thanks

i think it cost like $5 or $6. i'm not sure if they had any other swimbaits, i know they have basstrix.

[bpm2000]

i dont suppose they have the paddletail tubes do they?

[CK14]

i don't remember

but if you call them and ask they will look for you.
