Location: Madison WI | I just went to the bait store the other day and I saw some bucktails with blade sizes of # 8, 10 and 12's that had a brass piece on the collar that supposedly emitted sonic vibrations that attracted fish. Has anyone seen these or used them at all? |

Location: Grand Rapids MN | I haven't seen these larger sizes either but you caught my attention. I really like the Musky-buck and seem to go back to it quit often. Nice flash and on the tandems I add weight to the wire shaft so I can either burn them or get them down deeper. Not to forget about windy days I can just bomb these with that added weight. As for the bell, I don't know if it gives off any extra sound or if it helps with line twist but I like the overall set up and their are priced lower than most. |

When I read this post, I was ready to order the big blades immediately. I took a look at the Blue Fox website, and the largest blade they have is the #6.
Are you sure these are Blue Fox ? |

Location: Madison WI | Yep they are at my local bait shop in Madison Wi, which is wierd because we are always the last to get new baits, hell we don't even have havana jacks yet... I might just go buy some tomorrow and put them up on here. |

Mepps has a very interesting big double blade lure in the chute.
it's tough to be unique with bucktails, but they've managed to do something diffferent.
i'm hoping they're out at the shows this winter...

Location: Hayward, WI | Cool! They made them with flash and everything huh? I'm guessing they are pretty reasonably priced also? Might have to look into these.

Location: Madison WI | I threw mine out last night just messing around with it and it looked very sick in the water and the pull of the 12's wasn't that bad at all. |

Location: Madison WI | I wanted to make a correction to my original post as it has an error in it, Blue fox isn't making size 8's at least not that I saw they have #7's #10's and #12's |
