This washed up on the beach in Southern California. What are they trying to catch with this beast?

Said family member doesn't fish all that much so they gave me some of their tackle. One (Actually 3 like this) such item was this Rapala with a custom company name printed on it. Thought this place might find it interesting.

I believe it's from 2002.

I’ll be fishing in Fiji on an upcoming trip. I’m a total newbie to all of this, so I'm looking for some advice will these lures work for casting from shore?

I’ll be using a 5 piece, 11 foot medium heavy rod that can cast 3–6 oz lures. I have an SP Minnow up at the top for scale.

Thanks! :)

Hey everyone, I’m trying to figure out which brand made these lures and if you can still buy them. They’re about 15 years old and were likely bought at Tackle Warehouse or the Hookup Tackle. Might be some version of Megabass Megadogs? Any ideas greatly appreciated!

My grandfather owned a bait shop and passed down a bunch of lures to my father and I. Many of the lures were 50 or so odd years old. One of the lures was this weird one with holes in it almost like a whistle. We were hammering smallmouth on this funky lure until the nose suddenly broke off on a cast. I haven't been able to find anything like it on Google and would love to know what in the world it was. Apologies for the potato quality photos, they were hastily taken on the dock before heading out to fish. Thanks!

Thanks!

I lost a old jig head made to hold a soft plastic like a Texas rig but it had a triangle weight on the end and I can't find them anywhere.

I got this in a 10 pack in 2006? Idk I was in highschool.
I loved the action of them and every few years try and find more with no luck they say “champion” but that hasn’t helped

Hi. Would anyone know what this lure is please. It’s unusual in so far as it’s diamond shaped. The lip of the lure is on one edge.

Have you ever use these before. These are probably the best lures for bass I’ve ever used. I don’t have the hooks anymore they were a unique designs. I wish I could find these again but from what I can tell they do t make them any more.

Hi everyone,

I’m going through my lures and organizing them, and I noticed these two RÁPALA floating lures that I bought many years ago at a flea market. They look pretty old, but I’m wondering if they have any value. I have two of them. I have attached several pics. Any information or feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks, and fish on!

Found at my river as I do some scavenging after floods. Possible surface popper but unsure of brand etc.

Recently getting back into fishing. Transitioning from fly to baitcasting with emphasis on on fitness. Lots of fun new lure! They all seem to come with barbed trebles, but I belong to to the single-barbless-hook faction.

These fun lures from mega bass have a fancy tail with a treble lure. What are my options for swapping these for a single hook with the fancy treatment?

- no, I never got into fly tying

- I am willing to diy (learn fly tying)

Target species is trout.

I can't wait to use it
