Dripping Springs is only 4 hours away, plus you get to drive thru Val Halla. Just drive over to their head quarters and get what you want.

Is it just something for this weekend? I do have a rather large collection of GB baits. And did you try the folks over at Tackle Depot in Weatherford. Lisa used to stock quite a bit of their products.

This is either some sort of pro staffer requirement to drum up attention, or it is code for what to throw on lake X during the derby. Either way, I concur with your assement. Which color are the stores in your area out of?

I've made 15-20 orders over probably 8-9 years and haven't any trouble. On one order, I received the wrong color. I sent them an email asking if I needed to ship them back. They said not to worry about it, keep them for the mess up and sent what I had actually ordered.

The rattle snake is my go to crig bait. Especially in chartreuse. They eat it everywhere I remember helping Jerry in the design and prototype process of this bait. And couldnt believe just how many fish it caught. But you are correct Jarrett. It gets bit everywhere you throw it and has always been a c-rig staple in my boat as well.

This might be my fault. I have about 50 bags lol... The ones I cant find are the 3.75 Smaller Trophy Hunter colors. That color does well for me... and agree, can throw them anywhere. I probably throw them too much. Don't know how to fish anything else. lol
