TheJoster Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I saw a crappie lure in action at the end of the ice season. I would like to pick it up for early water crappies. It is called a shrimpo. Does anybody know where I can find them. Fleet Farm - not. Local bait stores - not. Guys were catch crappies with shrimpos when nothing else was working.

Borch Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I know you can order them here at fishing MN. Check out the sponser list. Did you check gander Mountain? I know they had a bunch of them a few weeks ago. Butg I haven't checked lately. Also check out the Ratsos if you find them. They are very much like the shrimpos(same bodies) but a horizontal presentation. They have been my hot crappie lure for ice and open water fishing.

hip_hop_fisherman Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 I picked a bunch up at Scheel's in St Cloud. Don't know if they still have them. You can also order from Custom Jigs and Spins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ducksnbucks Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 I had great success with the shrimpo and the ratso this year. I am up in Bemidji and picked them up at Gander, and my dad got some at Gander in St.Cloud. One thing to make sure and have is extra tails. If you get into a hot day of fishing, the tails can be ripped off, and many times this year the tail made the difference between fish and no fish. I know they sell just the tails to, in packs of 10 or so. They aren't to expensive. Hope you find some, they are great lures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmoredrakes Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 I use Shrimpo's alot and I usually get mine at a Gander Mountain. Shrimpo's are also good during the spring because the fish are spawning and the Shrimpo work really well when the crappies are on the beds.
