Last 2 times I went they were out so I asked the manager what's up and she said they're not really something they sell (corporate) and that when she does get a shipment they only send here 25 or so and they're gone fast. (she also commented on how dumb it was).

This doesn't make sense. Why would they not sell a bait that is used to catch local species?

Corporations gonna corporate

Equally effective as a spoon or spinner and I don't feel like I'm dragging my whole tackle box through the water. Plus they're not weedless.

I never had problems with them, but I just don't do it that often. I missed so many on spoons.

En route, blades...

I like "the secret" spoons from academy because they had a built in nickel (or something better) swivel. Walmarks has the same brand but has a crappy plated one that corrodes fast.

That's because they have the stupidest managers. They don't keep up the correct inventory levels so they never get shipped what they really need.

It amazes me when im at a big national store down here and I see lures for pike or walleye. They usually have about an inch of dust on them. Gee, wonder why they're not selling?

Yet ours has almost nothing you would use for specs. I'm going to have to stop on the way down when I go next month.
