Fishing Tackle Question?
Someone gave me and old tackle box that was full of soft plastic(melted) Lures, along with several standard lures such as rooster tails, poppers and crank baits. I have seen all of the lures before with the exception of one and I was wondering if anyone knew when they had been made or if they are still available. The lure in question is a soft plastic which has somehow come out of the box unscathed, even the hooks in it are in A+ condition. The lure though is about 5-6 inches long and is in the shape and coloration of a catfish complete with whiskers. Does anyone have any info on these lures, also what would they be designed to catch?
I can’t catch a bass in a pond but I can see them all over the place?
I have tried jigs, Spinnerbaits, Rooster tails, Worms, Live bait, and everything else in my tackle box. There is no cover on land around the pond, Just a tree or two. There aren’t many places to hide in the water. A fallen tree, and that’s about it. The water is brown and murky. I can catch some bream but the big bass just jump out of the water when I am fishing at a different part. But I always seem to see them jump. Sheer lunkers they are. But always not on my hook.
What lures are in your tackle box?
I only have a small 2 tray tackle box but this is what is in it.
(Top tray.)
Rebel Pop-R, Tiny Rat-L-Trap, two 1/8oz. rooster tails, Strike king mini spinnerbait, 1/8 oz. kastmaster, Rapala Original Minnow, 1/4 oz. Beetle Spin, Two 1/16 oz. jig-heads, one 1/4 oz. silver jig-head, bait-holder hooks(carp and catfish.), panfish hooks, plastic worm hooks, removable split-shot sinkers, and non-removable split-shot sinkers.
(Bottom tray)
2 weighted torpedo shaped bobbers, 2 mini-soft crayfish, 2 sassy shads, two 3″ curly tailed grubs in white w/ red tail, 1/4 oz. gitzit small fry spinner, 2 round weighted bobbers, some 2″ grubs in white, yellow, black w/ chartreuse tail, and light chartreuse w/ white flake, some 1″ grubs in chartreuse, milktreuse, and green, some pre-rigged 1/16 oz. chartreuse w/ yellow flake grubs, purple crappie jig, and a green crappie jig.

That’s my whole tackle box. So, anyone have any ideas on what else i could put in it, that would catch bass or bluegill? And some types of tackle for carp?
