Storm Lures New Bait
« on: Nov 18, 2003, 02:49 PM »
I stumbled across a new bait at my local Gander Mountain the other day, it is a soft plastic vertical jigging lure with from what I understand an action very similar to that of a jigging rapala. I should clarify, this bait is new to me. Does anyone have any experience or data behind this new bait? Storm has produced some wicked good soft plastic baits, this one looks like it has potential. This could open a whole new avenue of plastic baits for winter fishing.

The vertical jigging version is new. We tried the other storms on lake trout. They did not sit in the water right.

I bought some of the new ones in the perch color. They look like they shoud be good on walleyes through the ice.

BTW, Storm and Rapala are I believe owned by the same company.

You are correct they are owned by the same entity along with BlueFox.

These seem like they might work well for Walleye. Do you need to tip them with anything? Maggot? Minnow?

I would probably put the head of a minnow on the treble hook and see how that affected the action.

I just bought an assortment of these at Cabelas sat. They look great, I hope they work well. I would think the fish would hang onto them a little longer because they are soft.
There is nothing in the world I'd rather do than ice fish!
