    Jerkbaitin worth keeping or sell?

    I jerkbaitin fish in winter and have a box full of them. Megabass gets the call more times than not. I have som rogues husky jerks thunder sticks lc pointers pointer knockoffs that rarely get used at all. I love the 110s and am tying the Rc stx too. Should I hang on to the Rogers and pointers or get what I can for them to buy baits I will throw?

    could always send them off and have them painted in patterns you like better

    hang on to them or you will regret it. I found the RC are good but you must cahnge out the split rings as they are very weak. We caught fish today in 38 degree water on jerks. Sure is fun!

    Rogues still work. I fish newer baits most of the time but there was a spell last year for a couple days my partner and i caught most of our fish on Rogues. I had the same dilemma and was glad i didnt sell them, besides ya won't get much for them

    D,
    Been thinking the exact same deal, just bought a larger box to house mine. I've been changing out old hooks tonight and looking some of my custom painted clown and blue clown rogues from the mid 90's. Then my first pointer I ever bought haven't thrown it in two years. Just as a note took a kid two weeks ago and tied him on an 10+year clown rogue, he didn't land it but he had the best fish of the day on while his dad and I threw 110's and RC's. They still work its all about confidence.

    But im with u, when I open that box I grab an ito first.

    I am a custom painter and I can tell you from experience I have several boxes of standard jerkbaits bomber suspending,rogues,x raps,husky jerks,even some of the megabass and lucky craft baits I thought that looked good in the store I have repainted I like chartreuse shad variations clown variations and detailed shad variations I have even painted them in my favorite megabass and lucky craft colors I also have had a rogue and a husky jerk wax my @$$ several times from the back of the boat so I keep some of their stock colors in my arsenal as well
