Anyone know where I can get a "Secret lure?" 2025

airborne_angler reply :

Was at the lake yesterday and there was a guy on a one man pontton. He hooked into a dink and released it. I asked him in a non threatening,non confrontational manner,"What did ya catch it on?"

His arrogant response "Secret Lure." Anyone know where I can get one? Sounds like they work really well!!

Later I ran into 2 guys in a Bass Tracker at the back of the lake and they asked how the fishing was.

I told them I had caught a few dinks on a dropshot. The one guy told me they ran across a guy in a pontoon(same guy) that caught a 6# on a dropshot earlier. This guy loaned the pontoon guy his scale and they weighed it,The pontoon guy said the scale was wrong,The fish was at least and 8#'er.

Can you believe approgance of some people?

File it under "no good deed goes unpunished".

Secret lures can be found in the discount bins of most tackle stores.

First you must spend more time on the mountain. When you are ready, the secret lure will come to you.

Bull Hurley reply :

Sounds like you were allready using the secret lure.

I decorate the trees with my secret lures.

Ya know I thought that was VERY ironic!! I was already using the "Secret Technique." Now I just gotta figure out the Lure he was using.

I could seriously care less what he was using,I was just rubbed wrong with this guys arrogance.

Thats where my secret/favorite topwater lure came from, about 4 years ago, from a bargain bin, got three of them, for $2.00 each, caught ton of fish on them,eventually lost them. went a year or more without being able to find any more, thne at the same store (I'd been back to the store several times since then too), I find them again, under a different manu. packaging (definitely the same lure though) again in the bargain bin, I got 5 this time, and will guard them more closely!

***Notice, I didn't say what it was, or where I got it*** Everyone needs to find their own little secrets

Maybe he meant one of those? : ;D

airborne_angler reply :

I guess im just a different kind of guy. If Im fishing with ***,and see someone using Senkos,I always offer up a few of my baits for the person to try and compare(If I have enough to spare) *** are priced accordingly,so its not like im giving away a fortune in baits.I also try to remember to slip them Brents business card,so maybe they can purchase more if they like the baits.

I also try to help others in rigging, and presentation,in hopes that I can shed some light on the success im having,or to at least teach someone something they didnt know. On the same token,maybe that person can teach me something. Its all about comraderie and resourcing. I always try to plug Bassresource.com as well.

Some people dont even know what certain baits and techniques are,they look at you funny when you mention Senko or Dropshot.

With me,theres no "Secret Lure"

RhodyBass reply :

There's always one in every crowd :-?i don't let guys like that ruin my day.I have seen guys go so far as to cover up the lure when i pass by ;D

airborne_angler reply :

I didnt let it ruin my day,but man I start to lose all hope in mankind when I meet people like that.

The guys in the Tracker,on the other hand one was throwing a popper(you could hear it) and the other guy caught something. I asked this guy what he caught the fish on,the other guy chimed in,"Pumpkinseed Baby Brush hog"

Did i suddenly dig through my stuff,to find my stash of Brush hogs...NOPE

I was already killing em on a Dropshot. I did end up throwing a small popper later,only because the surface was erupting with breaking fish.

wavewalker reply :

lol. rotf. dont tell

mrlitetackle reply :

some people are just like that......

dont care for them too much myself.....

i prefer to be a bit more friendly with people i encounter to say the least.

Dont lose all hope! Cool folks gotta outnumber the jerks.

Blue Streak reply :

Some day that jerk will be on the water asking someone what they caught them on and I bet he gets a kinder answer than he gave you. Maybe then he will figure it out.

Maxximus Redneckus reply :

The secret lure is a manns jelly worm grape 8 inches

airborne_angler reply :

Shhh its supposed to be a secret!!!

So if I see the guy again and ask him what hes using,and he replies"Secret Lure" Should I ask him where I got his Manns Jelly Worms?

Bet that will trip him up!!

Maxximus Redneckus reply :

Yup airborne but he may shoot ya since u know now

Tucson reply :

A couple of points that seem to apply:

There is no Magic Lure

Don't assume that other fishermen know more than you do.

tnbassfisher reply :

I just don't understand why some people do this. They think that by telling you what lure they are using, that you are going to catch every fish in the lake, and leave them with none.

Because we all know that they is only five or six nice bass in each lake. :

I guess it's an opportunity to be mean-spirited.

grimlin reply :

I do this sometimes.

I usually say "plastic lure" and leave it as that.I show them what I'm using sometimes,but that's as far as i go.

Most folks around here do not practice C & R.

SirSnookalot reply :

I care as much about secret lures as I do secret spots. Quite often when I'm in the field and I'm catching a few I may give the lure away or get a new one I have in my car, I do it all the time. I do the same with some of my prime fishing spots, I love watching other people catch fish too.

Yep, and just cuz I am using what your using doesn't mean I will catch fish either. The way your working it,speed,depth, location,casting angle,line size,and rod type may or may not play a part.

That said I don't mind sharing anything. I have confidence in what I am doing.Do you?

freakyfish reply :

Theirs really no secret lure.Because they change day to day hour by hour.The real question should be how deep are they biteing that will give you a starting point.
