Subject: bobbie baits?


I was wondering... How do those bobbie baits run? do they run side to side like mantas?

From my experience you have to work them faster than a suick. They are dive and rise bait with a big tail wiggle as you pull them. Much more bouyant as BruceKY says. If you are familiar with Sidewinder T-Bone lures, bobbie baits are very similar. T-bones are much better made in my opinion.

You can work them as a dive and rise and also a glider type bait...very versatile lure.

Bobbie bait is one of old jerkbait in 1950's little after Suick. Biggest musky on Bobbie that I think is 51 lbs! 42 lbs on Bobbie from Boom Lake near Rhinelander. All serious musky hunters should have one in boat.

Another good tool for your box. Nice jerk baits like a Suick. I do like my Suicks a little better though for the action and my perception of the durability even thoguh I have not had a problem with the Bobbie baits.

I like Suicks better for backing up out of weeds; I like Bobbies better in the figure-8. Both are excellent. I have a lot more fun casting either of these than I do DCGs...
