Nice. Those appear to be just about mint. Pre Rap Warts for whatever reason are starting to decline in value. I check in on Ebay from time to time for good deals on them and am noticing they aren't going for what they were 2 months ago or before then. Not sure why that is....maybe the market is being flooded as people have found out grandpa's old lures have value or if new options (aka SPRO Rock Crawler, etc) have taken up a market share and people are getting away from the Pre Rap Warts. For whatever reason prices are dropping on them.

Usually there is an increase in spring, but there seem to be more baits available. Might be that a lot of folks bought up before the holidays, trying to get a jump on spring. Prices were crazy in December.

Also no really big tmts (Elite, Open, FLW Major) coming to Table Rock or Bull this spring. Unless I missed one...

Nice warts Alex! I think the old v37's are still a great bait on the Rock. I've been selling a few warts this winter, yes the prices have came down a bit. I think the word got out on what they would sell for on Ebay and lots of folks jumped on the band wagon. It's all about supply and demand.

That color doesn't work on Table Rock.

Or Broken Bow, or Tenkiller, or Bull Shoals. I think maybe you got took. As a favor I'll pay $5 each, but you have to pay the shipping.

I've caught fish on that gold thing but better when the water is stained. It may be me but I catch way more fish in the v37 in the clear water than the v38. I prefer the natural colors like v62 and 63 over the 38 as well.

Your absolute right about color, what ever you feel is the best will be the best. One of our local Elite anglers told me last year when the wart bite was going strong again. That there has been more money won on the 38 than every other color combined, not even close.

In that late 90's top 150 here Mark at the Tackle Store sold thousands of warts in that week. Yes I said thousands. Beck seemed to think it was close to 5000. Most all were V38.

It started being my favorite on Lake O and Kind of followed me.
