I'm not trying to rush winter. I'm sure some semblance of winter is on the way. That means we are approaching the 2026 Ultimate Sport Show Tour - the three biggest fishing and outdoor sport shows in Michigan!

Yesterday at the Natural Resources Commission meeting in Lansing, science prevailed thanks to many, many persons who took the time to write in, and especially those who showed up to speak before the Commission on Commissioner Walters’ amendment to close bass fishing on the Inland Waterway and Black Lake from May 1 until the third Saturday in June.

Swimbaits for sale

Hello guys

Last year I got into swimbait fishing and I bought a few more than I really needed.  I want to sell three of the swimbaits (so I can buy more swimbaits, lol).  All three are Mattlures swimbaits.

The first is a Hard Gill, slow sinking in Female Bluegill color. The bait is 5 3/4" and 1.9oz.  This was used less than 5 times and has a few spots of wear. It comes with an extra tail and the original packaging. I am asking $40 (original $55)

The second is a Hard Bass, slow sinking in Light Largemouth Bass color.  This bait is 7 1/2" and 4.0oz.  This was used less than 5 times and a few spots of wear.  It comes with an extra tail and the original packaging. I am asking $40 (original $60)

The third is a Hard bass, slow sinking in WALLEYE color.  This is a custom color (they stock 5-7" walleye in my lake, so this bait is awesome for me, caught my second biggest bass in 2010 on this bait... 5lb 12oz).  This bait is 7 1/2" and 4.0oz.  I bought several of these and this one was never used. It comes with an extra tail and the original packaging. I am asking $50 (original $60)

If you aren't familiar with Mattlures, you can check out his website for more details on the lures.  Despite the size of the Hard Bass, I have caught pretty ambitious bass in the 2.0 - 2.5lb range on this size swimbait. I have the perch, walleye and LM bass color Hard Bass and all worked well for me in 2010.

Please PM if you are interested in any or all of these.  I would probably give a further discount if someone was interested in all three.  Shipping and/or personal delivery is available and will be discussed once I know someone is interested. 

Look forward to seeing if anyone is into Mattlures and wants any of these.

Thanks

No one at least want to tell me how pretty these baits are???    Ha.  Or that I am a little crazy for owning such big swimbaits in Michigan!  ;)  They are big and very pretty.  Notice the eye on the Walleye is colored to look like a real walleye.  Matt did an awesome job on the walleye bait.

Any muskie fisherman out there?  The Hard Bass swimbaits are built with Muskie grade hooks and split rings....  I had always thought the walleye pattern could be good on St. Clair for Muskies.  And the bass pattern too.  Never been muskie fishing, so maybe I am way off base. Ha.

Thought I might not get a lot of takers on these swimbaits in Michigan.  Worth a shot though.

Definitely let me know if anyone has quetsions about this stuff.

Thanks!

Sold two of the three.  Probably going to keep the third.

Thanks
