snag Posted June 28, 2007 Report Posted June 28, 2007 (edited) Here are some of the ones I bought. Some at Dollarama, some at other Dollar stores. I did not purchase and wouldn't trust any weaker looking lures (no pics!). Again, these are good lures and will help with your budget when kiddies and friends want to lose your lures. I also like to send these into dodgey looking water like one of those sacrificial lamb/red coated ensons from STAR TREK They all have beads and loud rattles (well not the spoons and spinners) I bought the exact same large topwater one below at BPS for $6. DOH! Yeah Baby!! YEAH!!!!!!! Edited June 28, 2007 by SNAG
urbanangler1990 Posted June 28, 2007 Report Posted June 28, 2007 hmm are u representative of DOLLERAMA? haha, sweet actually, i may have to pick up some for myself, sure beats spending 6 bux on a single lure, thnx
dsn Posted June 28, 2007 Report Posted June 28, 2007 (edited) I might see yah in your area tomorrow snag. I live only 15 mins away from a dollar store maybe I should check it out for lures. LOL dsn Edited June 28, 2007 by dsn
The Urban Fisherman Posted June 28, 2007 Report Posted June 28, 2007 Haha Dude, I took the green one with black spots up to the west arm last summer and smoked pike after pike with it. The pink one worked for pike and smallmouth on the Thames in London. The only problem is you HAVE to air them out after you use them or the hooks will rust out quick! Can't beat them for a buck though! Cheers Snag! UF
snag Posted June 28, 2007 Author Report Posted June 28, 2007 LOL HAHAHAHA I was trying to get Brian (Misfish) a new sponsor!!! Can you imagine what a Dollarama royalty cheque would look like!!!LOL

Dutch Posted June 28, 2007 Report Posted June 28, 2007 Dollarama Slamma at its finest....probably won't give you a lot of longevity, but the bang for the buck will more than make up for it.
The Urban Fisherman Posted June 28, 2007 Report Posted June 28, 2007 only when I caught pike....otherwise they were OK....they sure don't have the so called "bulletproof" finish of the x-rap, but they lasted me fine. When I was in College I forgot my tackle box on the porch of my fraternity house overnight and some deush ripped me off....being a starving student I could only afford the dollarama specials for a whole summer! haha the three inch pinky was my go-to lure that summer! also, one of the big orange one's I have doesn't really swim to well....swims like a fish that had a few to many beers!
Greencoachdog Posted July 12, 2008 Report Posted July 12, 2008 OMG!!! OMG!!! The Schnagger has surfaced again!!!
Canuck2fan Posted July 12, 2008 Report Posted July 12, 2008 also, one of the big orange one's I have doesn't really swim to well....swims like a fish that had a few to many beers! You mean they engineered a lure that immitates a wounded bait fish that triggers the killer instinct of a pike... and it only costs a buck!!!! I am sold LOL. Actually I gave my nephews a bunch of those dollar store lures and they did slay some panfish with em and they didn't have to get upset when half of them landed in trees and were left there 30ft above the water while they were learning how to cast.
bassfighter Posted July 12, 2008 Report Posted July 12, 2008 I tweak the Dollarams lure by drilling a hole and adding some sand to make them heavier, the hooks are so dull as well, and need to be sharpened. Their largest lure is good for musky as I caught one with it.
