Good looking baits but it sounds like they pretty much just decided to combine one of Tacklebooty's monikers (Grunt Muskie Lures) with the dog for bulldawg.

Really? http://www.shackattacklures.com/acatalog/11__Curly_Sue_Custom_Color...

Same tail designs, same scale patterns, same dorsal fin, same top hook on the paddle tail bait... Look AWFULLY similar to me.

Maybe it's a prototype lure from Grunt Tackle/Tackle Industry that never came out? James will chime in on this!

I have not been on ebay in awhile but I did see these baits being auctioned there. it did say these will be mass produced eventually according to what I read on ebay.

Pretty sad how cut throat some people are. Andy makes some great baits and runs his business the right way. Hope nobody is buying stuff like this. Whoever is making these doesn't deserve a dime for it.

When searching on ebay, check the box to "Include title and description".

It's not cutthroat, it called capitalism...capitalizing on market trends...why do you think Booty is successful?

BTW---Is that a clip I see behind the dorsal to attach a gunner blade?---if so, not a bad idea!

As Rod Farva from "Super Troopers" would say, "My bad Cap." :D

As a side note, pretty good copy though. They got pretty much everything down to a T. Funny thing is there was never anything "wrong" with Andy's baits, but I suppose that's capitalism for ya. I'll continue buying "the real deal." Andy's a super guy and will always get my business.

I see he has one on there that looks something like an actual Dawg also. Something pretty drastic would have to happen for me to stop buying from Shack Attack and Tacklebooty...

Not mine but I have seen a few on eBay over the last 10 weeks. I had not seen them for about 4 weeks though. email Andy. I know he keeps up on anything close to his lure designs. I am guessing they will not have the internal harness Andy has in his. Andy's harness design really does make his lure rock solid!
