Mattlures has introduced a new swimbait called the Jitterfish. This bate looks awesome. This bait reminds me of the classic jointed jitterbug, but with a realistic fish appearance and with big fish catching size and weight. The bait comes in at 2.5 ounces, is 8 inches long, and comes in 4 different colors. I bet the Pike will eat this thing up like an appetizer. I have ordered this bait and will put it through it's paces in the not to distant future. Check them out at the Mattlures Website.

Jackall lures has introduced a new swimbait that again caught my eye for a few reasons. It is called the Jackall swimming ninja G90. This bait is less than 4 inches long and weighs 3/4 oz. I am a fan of the smaller swimbaits because you can throw them all day long and not get tired. The feature that I like best is that this lure has the ability to stand straight up on the bottom to imitate a feeding bluegill. Bed fishing coming to mind? If this lure works as advertised it will be a good one to have in the arsenal. The retail price for this lure is $14.99. If you play your cards right and time it perfectly, you could probably score this one for 20% off during a sale. I am looking forward to getting my hands on one of these. Below are some pictures I found on the internet while trying to get some more information about this lure.
I have read that there is an additional eye at the bottom of this lure to add a trailer hook if needed or desired. I wonder if adding a hook will increase your hook-up ratio or hinder the performance? If your using this lure for bed fishing, that extra hook at the bottom will be a nightmare I imagine.
Let me know if you get your hands on one of these lures and what you think of it. If anyone finds a video of this lure in action, please let me know. This lure was introduced at ICAST 2010, and it has not even been posted on the Jackall lures website yet. |

Here is a cool picture taken by TinBoats member Waterboy. He was driving through a local park in the New Orleans, Louisiana area and came across a row of multi colored TinBoats just itching to get in the water! To see a bigger picture, click here.
