MOsmallies Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 I've been searching eBay without luck, so I thought I would check here. I'm looking for a crankbait that is no longer made... Bait: Storm Lightnin Shads Model: DL (small body, deep diving bill) Colors: Shad-221 (Purple back, blueish/green side, white belly)... or any other shad type colors. I found several on eBay, but they were the AL or DAL models that have a much larger body size. This is a killer little bait for me in the fall when fishing a certain fishery that has a diverse array of species. I can catch 8-10 different species in one day on this bait. Here are pictures of the exact size and color I'm looking for. The first picture compares it to the AL model that I accidentally ordered on eBay last week. I'm looking for the unpackaged one. This is my last one and it's caught me a ton of fish over the past two years but I'm worried my luck won't last me a 3rd season. Anyone have any of these they'd be willing to sell? If so, respond to this and we can work out a price. Thanks, Paul MOsmallies
Guest Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 I had a box full of those from the 90's. Never caught a fish on them, but that was my fault. Unfortunatley, then fell victim to the extreme heat of a storage shed.
Flysmallie Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 I think my dad might have one or two. I'll snoop around and see if he wants to get rid of any he might have. Â Â
MOsmallies Posted July 12, 2013 Author Posted July 12, 2013 That's unfortunate Trophy... I never really did well on it til I threw it in the fall on a certain MO/IL body of water. Flysmallie - Thanks for checking and let me know what your old man says.
rps Posted July 12, 2013 Posted July 12, 2013 Try one of the flat warts. http://www.basspro.com/STORM-Deep-Rattlin-Flat-Wart-Crankbaits/product/10225288/
MOsmallies Posted July 12, 2013 Author Posted July 12, 2013 I'll have to give those a shot as well. thanks for the suggestion RPS
kjackson Posted July 13, 2013 Posted July 13, 2013 I am pretty sure I have the larger size in that color and the black back; I'll have to check and see if I also have the smaller.
Quillback Posted July 14, 2013 Posted July 14, 2013 Never seen those before, I'll have to keep an eye out for them.
MOsmallies Posted July 15, 2013 Author Posted July 15, 2013 Kjackson... Thanks for looking. Let me know if you have any of the smaller size with the deep diving bill and your willing to sell them.
kjackson Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 Will do. Just got back from ICAST and am now facing deadlines. However, I'll do some checking during a break later today.
