Large White Suckers
« on: Feb 14, 2008, 01:35 PM »
We stocked these for a little bit.  8-12" white suckers.  But they are expensive.  How many of you guys use white suckers for pike?  Trying to decide if we should get more.

How expensive is expensive and how do they hold up?

I swear by these these things! I'm to the point where I'm special ordering them to fish Champlain because of the new bait regulations up there. But they are expensive. One can expect good 10 inchers to go about 2.50 a piece on a good day.

They seem to hold up, except for this one guy who breaks their back before putting them on the hook.  He says it works.  They can go anywhere from $2.50 to 4.50 apiece.  I think it's a lot and hate to stock up on too many but people here know better than me.
