[Ricky T]

Mighty neighborly gesture.

well played Rocky

Okay, dug through my stuff this AM
I'm sending 6 Crawfish pattern Wiggle Warts, 2 Firetiger, and 2 Shad color.
Also sending 4 ShortWarts in Crawfish. Not worried about shipping cost, and I'm giving these to him.
Will put in mail Friday AM.
Now, I might need to find out what the rest of this stuff could be sold for.

Nice job Rocky.. Not sure if you should be commended or sent for a psyche eval. Those warts are always in high demand. The old ones track real well and are great cold water baits.

Rocky, Thanks, and again I can pay you for them. He will appreciate this, and hopefully he will use them to get a check at one of his tourny"s . His dream is to be a pro. bass fisherman.

Awesome gesture and good luck to him. I have 2 but they will never leave the case, too much sentimental value to me. I remember catching my first bass with one

My favorite would be 6th sense squarebills. Give them a try, they're made here in Texas and the quality is excellent.

No lure has sentimental value to me.
I finished 2nd in my first B.A.S.S. tournament on a homemade lure, but most of the money I won, and top finishes were with Bomber crankbaits.
After 31 years of guiding on Fork, with a few years of B.A.S.S. touring, and a couple Classics, I've realized that the lure is not the most important aspect of catching fish.
It's a hunk of lead and/or plastic.
I had a Pop-R that I had caught over 1,000 bass on, that I broke off, so I tied another on.

I get where you're coming from, it's not the fact that I caught my first fish on it, it's just the last thing I got from my grandpa when we were going through the storage shed before he passed.

Totally understandable.
Nobody in my family fished, so I didn't inherit lures.

Let me look and see if I still have some.

I have a Wiggle Wart story. Growing up fishing with my dad in the 70s & 80s. MY dad would make me walk the wind swept bank of any lake we fished and look for crank baits....
He found a purple Wiggle Wart that was chewed on but still floated. He caught a lot of fish on that exact lure and all his fishing buddies wanted that lure. it was highly guarded. we rarely coud find the purple color in the store. One time we found some in a small sporting goods store and bought everyone of them.

He loved Wiggle Warts and Mister Twister plastic worms.

He has been gone a long time now and brought back good times.....
