Walmart Lure Extravaganza 2024


fishing user avatarairborne_angler reply : 

Went to local Walmart last night and found an end cap with some blue cardboard bins chocked full of new lures. All the lures were Lurenet.com baits (Bomber, Rebel, Heddon,YUM,Cotton Cordell, Arbogast and Lazy Ike.) I'm sure I'm missing some brands.

All baits were marked $1.50 each. For those of you who bargain hunt for tackle this is an awesome deal...be on the lookout!!!


fishing user avatarBlues19 reply : 

I saw that too. I think my favorite thing I got there was a small white rebel Wee-R squarebill.  I got a few to customize with some sharpie


fishing user avatarLip 'em! reply : 

I found this as well! Bought several spooks an pop-Rs!


fishing user avatarjbird9009 reply : 

i was digging through this bin today. but my hands were already full with some other lures

 

the bomber spinner baits looked cheap, anybody have experience with them

 

the lazy ike was somethin i had never seen before either, anybody throw these?


fishing user avatarcraww reply : 

The lazy Ike's a great bait. I usually let my 7 year old use one and he does well on it.


fishing user avatarairborne_angler reply : 

I don't know what all YUM baits were offered originally in this deal, but my WalMart only really has the mighty bug remaining. The Hsrd baits, well dang thetes a huge assortment, and for the price...you can't go wrong.


fishing user avatarDarren. reply : 

Hmmm. I passed by a similar bin at my Walmart the other day. Quick glance and I didn't see some that you mentioned. Perhaps next glance should be extended...


fishing user avatarkeith71 reply : 

I filled my boys box up with these,some good stuff in there .


fishing user avatarclayton86 reply : 

I was at mine today no such deals like that. I did score a box of trilene 100% fluorocarbon for $5.00.


fishing user avatarfadetoblack21 reply : 

I got about 6 zara spooks for $1.50 each today. Also picked through the $2.95 bin and scored 6 Xcalibur xcs 100 cranks.


fishing user avatarBlues19 reply : 

I went to two walmarts and i had to search one of them. They had Yum Money Hounds and Money Frogs and Mighty Craws too. Thats what I ended up getting most of, but I like the nice little Rebel Square bills


fishing user avatarThe Young Gun reply : 

In N. WI I was in Wally World today and didn't see even any of the plastics mentioned on sale.. Got some gammy 3/0 EWG hooks a 5pk for 2.50 though. And other misc hooks..


fishing user avatarJake P reply : 

Mine might have been the mother load.

 

  Yum Money Hounds and frogs,Roughly 100 Rebel squarebills. 100 Pop-r's. Tons of TINY Cotton Cordell cranks and various rooster tails, weights, some weird senko type stick baits, Yum Wooly bugs.

 

What did I walk away with? 5 Chart/white 3/8 oz War Eagle Spinnerbaits. 1.50 each. Never fished War eagle but I know many of you like them. Too good to pass up given the reputation even though I have too many spinnerbaits already.

 

Everything in all 3 bins were 1.50.


fishing user avatarSirSnookalot reply : 

When I see those bombers I gobble them up, I believe the MSRP is $2.99.  I have caught countless numbers of bass and snook on them, just as many as xraps.  The hooks are not the best, when they need replacement I only use a 4x treble, any brand as long as it's 4x. Some of my bombers are so banged up I don't even know what color they originally were, the fish don't seem to mind they don't look new anymore.  I do miss the Renegade brand lures the Walmart used to sell.


fishing user avatarGOOCHY reply : 

I got a bunch of Cotton Cordell and Bombers the other night.  There were still some real nice ones in there.


fishing user avatarBk4 reply : 

I got two heddon zara puppy.


fishing user avatarJellyMan reply : 

Im gonna run out right now. Hopefully my local store has some goodies. At $1.50 a pop, I plan on making a nice haul. I will fill all the empty spots on my boxes, ready for the year.


fishing user avatarAvalonjohn44 reply : 

I grabbed a bunch of the Yum Mighty Bugs and a weird shaped lizard call the Salleemander - it looked interesting. 

I passed up the Money Frog and Money hounds, they just looked too silly for me.  I used to have some baits similar to the money hound and they did not work at all. 

I also got a few Hula Poppers too. For a buck fifty, you almost can't go wrong. Will head out again later for round two...


fishing user avatarJake P reply : 

Just went to another walmart and found 6 packs of yum Houdini Shad 1.50 each.


fishing user avatarBrettD reply : 

Went to my walmart today and they had the bait bonaza going and it was 2.50 a lure I picked up 4 zara spook jr's,2 bomber jerk baits and a couple creek chub topwaters.


fishing user avatarJellyMan reply : 

Just got back from my Wally with some clearance items. 2 jerk baits, 2 top water jerk baits, 2 poppers, and 3 crank baits. All the YUM products were nothing of interest to me. I would rather buy my producing baits and keep all the "excess" out of my life.

 

Oh and not on sale, I got a KVD Sexy Frog, new Berkley multi tool, and a Berkley digital scale. 

 

Pretty good for $48 bucks!


fishing user avatarAGOSS reply : 

I got some Bomber Square bills!!


fishing user avatarFelix77 reply : 

Snagged some very hard to find Yum Salamanders in a Bream color.  Fun to fish for bargains.   :eyebrows:

Make sure you send in the rebate for a pretty awesome discount.

I just checked it out.. I had no idea there was a rebate going! Shcucks. I have a final showing and inspection on my home in the morning and all the trash is out on the curb. 

 

Bogus. Ah well.


fishing user avatarbassinKS reply : 

My walmart has this right now too. They also have a little clearance section of random baits, lures and hooks. I scored some 4/0 and 5/0 Trokar TK130 Flipping hooks for $4.50 regular $6.99, I have been needing some flipping hooks and have wanted to try the Trokar brand so I picked them up almost wiped them clean lol.


fishing user avatarjoeyfishes reply : 

I got a pack of yum craws, some Strike King worms, and two of the same crankbait for only a couple bucks.

I just picked up a couple from the dollar bin at Walmart and used one so far. How are they supposed run? The one I used ran a little then turned over and repeated. It was weird and I don't know if that's normal since this is my first time using them.


fishing user avatarcraww reply : 

They should just wiggle side to side and kind of flutter at the same time on a straight retrieve...I've had a few of those heddon Baits get a little out of tune,the line ties can get turned a little too far too the left or right. Id check that first, maybe tighten it another full crank or superglue if need be.


fishing user avatardas028 reply : 

Bought a bomber spinner out of one of those boxes. Threw it out a few times got nothing. never really gave it a chance though I will when the mood strikes.

 

Only gripe is the color....its a chartruse (sp?)


fishing user avatardas028 reply : 

On a related topic...I did buy one of those cheap spinner they have hanging up without a package for $1. I took the skirt off and have been experimenting with rubber trailers rigged on the hook. So far, I've tried a mini fluke witch I didnt like. I also tried a 4.5 inch suggo, buy only threw it out a few times. It looked good though...If i was a bass I would of hit it!!! haha

 

I think after work I'm gonna bring a handfull of plastics and only that lure and try things out. I'll let you guys know if anything works.

Well that's what I figured getting them out of the dollar bin at Walmart. They should actually be paying me a dollar to take them. I'll try to fix them. Thanks 


fishing user avatarBassfink86 reply : 

the walmart by me has three of these bins and i look through them every time i go there and i end up walking out with at least five more things, but the prices aren't as low as they should be for what is considered a "bargain bin", the thing that throws me though is that a lot of the baits say saltwater on them, but looking at them there really isnt any difference except with the soft plastics that are obviously for saltwater


fishing user avatarMichiganFishing1997 reply : 

I took advantage of it today.


fishing user avatarSudburyBasser reply : 

Darn, you cats are lucky. Nothing like these deals up here at our local Wal-Marts where I am...not that I could justify adding any more tackle to the collection...he says after buying four lures not one hour ago at a local outfitter.


fishing user avatarnew2BC4bass reply : 

Two Walmarts near me almost never have a sale unless something is damaged.  Others have $30 off Bucoo rods, not mine.  Others are having a big sale on reels, not mine.  Others have a big discount on selected lures, not mine.  I do better at Dick's.  At least there I can find the occasion hard bait and soft bait on sale.  They have a LH Citica for $99.99....that is what is in the display.  Didn't ask if RH Citicas were included in the sale.

 

I get much better prices at Ollies (for lures and line), but selection is limited.
