Default Show off your "warriors"

I want to see everyones nasty baits, the ones that have been around that block and caught more than their share of fish. I call them my warriors. Here's a few of my warriors.
1.Strike King King Shad

2.A couple 78 pointers

3. Another 78 pointer and a 97 slender pointer.

4. A couple of my favorites. A one eyed Zell pop and a Xcalibur XR50.

Most of my Warriors have been taken POW by lake/river bottoms. All considered MIA.

x3...except most of mine end up as pike "food". It's rare for any hard bait of mine to last an entire season due to the number of toothy critters in the lake I fish. Maybe that's why I end up using a senko/zoomie so much of the time.

I don't know if the picture will show up, but these two are some of my favorites: A rayburn red cotton cordell super spot, and a storm shallow wiggle wart. The super spot has actually hooked a few tarpon in florida. It was retired and replaced with an identical one. The storm is still in service.

My baby, the Yo Zuri Crank'N Dive SD Ayu (Nicknamed the Yo Zooker) that was given to me by our ole buddy Zooker. It probably caught me over 50% of my fish last year:

Like the others, most of mine have been "involuntarily retired". I do have a couple of 30+yo lipless baits that produce well but look like 40 miles of bad road. Have to dig them out and take a picture of them.
