Pre-Rapala Wiggle Warts

[edyer]

When I first came down to Table Rock in 1980, I was told by a tackle shop owner, that all I needed was a V 37 (Brown Crawdad) and a V 38(Green Crawdad). He said that Stacey King had told him that. We caught a lot of fish on them on Table Rock, and I have caught a lot of fish up in Michigan on them also. Three years ago I got wind that the prices were going pretty high, so I sold most of the warts I owned. Some for as much as $60-$80. I just couldn't justify fishing a $80 bait. I also sold some for a couple of my friends and wrote them nice checks. They had offered me 30% of the profits and they were over-joyed with how much money they received. This past year I have been buying and selling some, and have kept more than enough to fish with. I have a little fun with dealing with the buying and selling, and have made some friends across the U.S. through selling them Warts. I do most of my buying and selling using Facebook because it is free. If you have any questions about Warts, I would be happy to try and answer them. My Facebook name is Ed Dyer if you want to friend me.  Sounds like the Rock Crawlers catch fish and I'm sure the New Warts do also, but I will be throwing the Pre-Rapala or the second generation Warts(They have great paint jobs and a tighter wiggle that some of my Michigan friends prefer.

That bait can't possibly hunt. It has no eyes.

Or does that make it hunt more, since it can't see where it's going?

Oh the questions...

I retrieved a old type wiggle wart from hung up in back of my dock the other day. Never seen one like that before and will take it yobtovmu friends shop and see if its rare ar not. .Whoever putvit back there certainly did bot give a hoot forcits value. he threw it over three cables to get it close to the walkway, where it cought on a limb. Silly thing to throw a crank over 3 cables and expect to get it back all the time.

Actually a wart will walk over a bundle of cables, and practically anything else, really good.  Don't let Ed shyster it off of ya ! ☺
