Favourite Discontinued Lure
Hey guys,
A back and fourth on facebook trying to identify a lure with steve, got me wondering what your favourite discontinued lure was.
Recently discontinued or an old classic, colour scheme in particular lures or the whole lure.
Chuck it in this thread (with an accompanying photo if possible) and we'll see what people miss.
I have a few but I'll let a few others weigh in before I pop them up.
Cheers Alex

Re: Favourite Discontinued Lure
Most of the ones I use are still available so that's a good thing.
Monster mikis would be one I'd love to see come back
There's a double clutch colour that got discontinued that was meant to be the bees knees. Can't remeber what is called now.

Re: Favourite Discontinued Lure
Well these lures have been discontinued since before I was born but the Floppy & Plucky lures are just classic I have a few and I'm just too scared to use them :oops:

Re: Favourite Discontinued Lure
Jeez, I just realized how old I must be, I fished a lot with Flopys, great casting, landed with a plop just like a frog, and had a variable bib, would run shallow & push a wake like a frog, or set deep and would dive steeply. I caught sooty grunter, jungle perch, juvenile mangrove jack & barramundi on them (the small ones). I reckon the big ones would be killers on Murray cod & bass. That was back in the 1960's & early 70's, late teens early 20's in NQ. My good years.
