Name this bait 2024


fishing user avatarRiver Rat316 reply : 

The name I had in mind for this particular bait was already taken (as usual) and I am not the most creative guy with names or colors so I am giving BR members a chance to name the bait, and win 5 free bags of the bait in any color they wish (colors from my chart or the dropshot bait page) The bait is 3.75" and is a shad bodied DS bait with a cross tail design, just for a little info on the bait.

"Knock It Off!"  LOL.

Seriously, "Smallie Crack" would work.


fishing user avatarripinthem reply : 

LOL! The name is in your discription. I thought you were serious for a few seconds.


fishing user avatarJ Francho reply : 

Wow!  Guys, he's looking to name a bait he's selling, not the color, not what the original name is......LOL.


fishing user avatarRiver Rat316 reply : 

Name the bait design, not the colors... Im sorry for not being more clear about that.


fishing user avatarJ Francho reply : 

"Knock it Off" is my final answer.

I really don't want this bait publicized, and its a copy, so it works!

;D

Nice pours, BTW.

Finny (as in finesse) drop


fishing user avatarairborne_angler reply : 

I think I have a winner:

POP N DROP

The name comes from my my primary occupation in the ARMY. I was a Combat Engineer. One that goes out and clears minefields.

One of the tools we had was called a "POP and DROP"

It comprised of a block of C-4 Plastic Explosives,a length of Timed fuse with a blasting cap crimped on one end and an initiation device on the other.

We would find the land mine,remove the pop and drop from our Demolitions bag,Lay the C-4 explosive next to the land mine,pull the M-80 Fuse ignitor and leave the area.

The Time fuse was measured by doing a test burn as we set up our equipment,so we knew exactly how much time we could expect prior to detonation.

The Fuse would burn for however long we measured it,and then when it reached the blasting cap,the ignition would set off the blasting cap and then the C-4 plastic Explosive.

End result was we either fully destroyed the landmine,or at least pushed it out of the way to allow an avenue of approach for follow on forces(Infantry,Tanks Supply ect)

Take a look at this video and youll see what this is all about:(Make sure your speakers are turned WAAAY up!!

Wait for it....

fishing user avatarSDoolittle reply : 

Did they ever name a winner?


fishing user avatarRiver Rat316 reply : 

Bird Dog is the winner. Aurora Shad is the name of the bait. I liked alot of the names, but I thought this name fit pretty well with our company. I also liked money shot, but thought maybe Reaction Innovations would get mad since they have the market cornered on porn names...lol

Bird Dog let me know what color you want your Aurora shads in and I will get them out asap, and for everyone else interested in the bait, they will be making their debut at the spring sale Starting this Friday the 18th!
