Must Have Lures.....

[cybermuskie]

I picked up a Phantom today! It was kinda strange though...There was one that said it was made by Phantom Lures and next to it was one by Odessy(sp)Lures. I help the up next to each other and the were exactly the same. Is that the same company, or did Phantom get bought out? It had pretty cool action.

Also found a Hellhound. That has some really interesting action! It's really all over the place. I liked it! I am thinking it may not be real good going through sparse cabbage. What have you guys found?

Now if I can find some fish. I am sure it will be crowded again this weekend.

So good luck to all!

Todd Cleveland is the maker of the original Phantom, the odessy Phantoms are a copy and don't run anywhere near as well as Todd's. Todd also makes the Viper.

Well I bought the orignal Phantom, cuz I really don't like anything Odessy makes. But the were almost exact right down tothe paint. To many copycats in the fishing world IMO.

Do you just not like the baits, or do you have beefs with the company?

I like odyssey because they have some real quality baits. Two of my favorite are the scitter critter and their bucktails. The bucktails have the reversed skirt to make them more irresistable and the scitter critter's action is awesome.

I cant believe only one person mentioned a Suick. You gotta have some big wood in the boat. Other than that...you cant go wrong with a Jackpot or a Bulldawg, especially on the metro area lakes....the ski's love 'em

Whats a Suick? jk. I don't own one, and don't feel the need to, of course thats subject to change.

Hey Tbone....ill take you out sometime and well throw nothing but big wood and i can promise you that at the end of the day, you will be purchasing your own arsenal of Suicks....Good Luck out on the Water

No I don't have a beef with the comapny, I had just gotten a couple of the "Pigs" when they first came out, and I have yet to see a fish with one on, so I stopped throwing them. So thats the only reason I shy away from their stuff.

Suick, oh yeah

Went out to bald Eagle friday morn and caught two, both on suicks. Great bait and so many colors, gotta have them all

I hate the odessey pigs also, I just can't get it to run right. It seems to go all over the place when I'm using it. That ones coming out of the box. My phantom on the other hand works great. Its has awesome action and its super easy to use.
