Default Rebasser you have created a monster

All I see anymore is tiki this and tiki that. Man I wish I had all the tiki lights around my house You have started a freakin FAD with it now. Well at least I don't see as many Senko posts now You gotta tell them that it's not the only bait to use though. It's amazing how some guys won't even use anything else now. They are missing out on a lot more fish, by not being more versatile I know it's a good bait, but it aint the do all be all of fishing baits.

Its because you are fishing . Someone forgot to tell the fish that the tiki sticks are the hottest thing since sliced bread.There are 2 types of presentations, a bottom presentation and a upper water colum presentation. Normally you can catch fish using either presentation, but again there are the times one or the other is all they want. I am not always right , but if they don't want a tiki stick, you better try a jig or tube bait. Rebbasser, when are they going to make a tiki tube bait ? P N J

No, it is definitely not the only bait to use. It sure catches fish, though .


Wonder if I can get paid in baits for all the good press I give them

They do! Matter of fact I ordered some last week and just got them. Hopefully I'll try them out this weekend. I ordered them from the link 454 put in. One thing I really like, and didn't know it until I got them, is they have a solid head to hold the hook better.

The last time I used tikis I caught 15 fish in 3 hours. No dinks either. But they are starting to slow down a little. I think they are just seeing the bait a little to much. Might give something new a try.......................

Yeah I noticed the slow down with tikis too. So on sunday I switched to a super fluke and casted and caught my first fish on a super fluke. *finally*

The power of flukin has broke loose. Maybe some of that power will head my way. Got some of those Zoom Horny Toads the other day and I am waiting for a chance to use them. I am sure they will be added to my arsenal..........

i think fish are becoming conditioned to senko style baits.i have hardly used them this season and have been catching on other baits.

It was the same ideals back in the 80's when I first started the
"back up" baits were the rage. I got one and looked at it like WTF? all it was ,
a Rebel brand craw that backed up if you quit reeling it.
Most swore by it, I was happy when the ohio river took mine and I never had to admit I never caught shyt on it LOL

I'll stick to any brand buzzbait, any good looking blade, a ton of plastics, and a jig.
they'll all be used long after I have gone to the big ol fishin hole in the sky!
