Salmo Chubby Darters?

What's the deal with these?  I never had much luck with them but right now Fleet Farm in Brooklyn Park has two big boxes of them on clearance for $1.72ea.  They use to be $6-7 bucks a lure!

Sounds like another hyped up lure, lived it's life span.

I found them to be good call lures for walleyes and lake trout and know they were some peoples go to for lakers for awhile.  I just didn’t have as many hook ups with them as I’d hoped. Still got em, seldom work them anymore.  Seldom fish walleyes and lakers anymore either

They're dynamite search lures.

Was just at Cabala's, opp sorry (Bass Pro Shop) and they are still selling a very small amount of the UV only Darters at $7-8 a lure now. The place was packed but, I did buy a bag of mini donuts on the way out!

I will admit I dont catch a lot of fish on them but we can use 4 lines here and I will often throw on a darter to call in some fish and its does help bring in fish that I will pick up on another rod. I have a hard time sealing the deal on them with a darter. I have tried to tip with waxies and minnow heads etc with some success but its far from my go to lure.

They only work if you do a long lift/fall and repeat Chubbby Darttter ( drawn out)

That’s what I heard the person was doing for lake trout.  Dropped it to the bottom and reeled it to the top over and over.  Lakers love a chase. Seemed to be a great fit.

As with a lot of artificial baits they are better at luring in fishermen than fish lol.
