If you like bandit lures
You'd better stock up now!!!!!!!!!!
Pradco has just bought Bandit Lures
They will be closing up the bandit plant and moving

That really sucks!
Yea it does
I checked a few places online
There has been a run on them
But hey
The old ones might one day be worth money
That's too bad. In the past Bandit has put out several colors and patterns, that put a lot of fish in my well. And kept money in my pocket.
Bandit 200's have been my bread n butter, Go to crank for years.
I have a Classic win on Belleville (Back in 2008) that I owe to a Bandit 200 in Rootbeer.
It is one of my strongest confidence baits!
I always felt Bandits were very much like Bomber 6A's. It makes sense that Pradco would buy them. Their lip was very Bomber like. I felt they even ran a lot like Bomber in the water. What they did have was some unique patterns. That will be what I miss. There were some patterns that you could not find on any other hard bait. If Pradco adapts those patterns to the Bombers then it will be a better bait than it originally was. Just my 3 cents from a guy that uses cranks as his "go to" bait.

It could make them better just as well as any other possibility. But we anglers can be a 'superstitious' lot, can't we. ;D
