Is there one don’t get me wrong I love days like today when you’re done fishing and half the paint is gone you caught so many I mainly use red eye shad’s . But I would like some that this won’t happen with.

Dont think your gonna find any. I've had multiple brands of lipless baits and they will all lose their paint, whether it's from hook rash, alot of fish being caught or it banging against rocks.
Don't get the new 6th Sense! I caught 5 bass in our pond, nothing big and we have no rocks. Half the paint is gone on a brand new lure in 30 minutes. I got red eye shads that got 100 fish on them that only have scratched. My new lure is basically white now cause that's their primer apparently.
Sometimes a Rat L Trap works better when the finish wears off. Sort of a bone color can be good.

Chrome red eye shad's are the worst. Last 1 day at best.Originally Posted by born 2 fish

On any new chrome bait I purchase , I put a coat thin coat of Bob Smith epoxy on it.
I do not fish crankbaits often but I have quite a few jerk baits and top eaters that are missing a lot of paint and they still catch lots of fish. I think the missing paint makes for a more random and natural appearance.
The rattle traps in my box that has the least amount of paint has caught the most fish. I look at the missing paint as a badge of honor. Would think of repainting or "fixing" one of these.
Rattle baits, imo, don't need to expensive and the cheaper ones work well after changing to decent hooks. At least sharpen the inferior hooks.
Jackall tns have held up so far. Just a small amount of hook rash.
The only ones that I own that dont lose their paint are the ones that dont seem to catch any fish...
the old Excalibur ones ( think fat free shad era) have a tough coating
Depends what color you are looking for IMO. Like mentioned a foil type bait forget it. They seem to always lose paint. Solid colors you can get plenty of mileage out of.
