Looking for Basstrix Paddle Tail Tubes?

Right now the Basstrix Paddle Tail Tube is the hottest thing around and hardly anyone can get their hands on any, I have heard they are going for $20 a pack on eBay right now. If you have not seen them, this is what they look like. Some online retailers carry them, but nearly all of them are backordered and are not taking new orders. I posted some of this info on my Tackle Blog, but this just seemend like too hot of a topic to just post in one place We were in need of a good ol’ fashion product review to break up the coverage of all my tourney write ups.

I have not used them myself, but have heard tons about them and they sound like the real deal. Recently I have come across a few other baits that look pretty similar and are much easier to get your hands on as well maybe a bit cheaper. Not too different then the original chatterbait, when they were impossible to get, many companies duplicated and in some cases came out with superior baits, so here is your chance to possibly be ahead of the curve and find maybe something better

First off, is the Money Lures Money Minnow, when I first saw it, I thought it was a BassTrix minnow. I am planning on ordering some of these for my trip to Clarks Hill Check out the description and images below.

Money Lures Money Minnow The money minnow are custom hand made swimbaits, using a 5 step process. Excellent colors, excellent finish. 5″ long, 4 baits per pack.

Next on the list, Poor Boy’s Baits Silly Rabbit

Introducing Poor Boy’s ‘new age’ swim bait – The Silly Rabbit. Work it like a fluke using the light weighted hook (included) or swim like a fish using the heavier weighted hook (included). You will be impressed with its fish catching action!!!

Looks alot like the Bass Trix & Money Minnow.

Last but not least……. Looks a bit different, but is also the cheapest and most affordable and made by a company that makes great baits in general……..

Reaction Innovations Skinny Dipper Series New from RI, these shad style swimbaits feature the beaver style rib pattern on the back, and has a slit in the belly for the hook. The single paddle tail is 3/4″ wide, which creates lots of action, water splashing and noise as you retrieve this bait.
