BPS on line is sold out and the stores don't have them.

The scrounger has been removed all together from their online store for the second time now, I wonder what's up with that. This last time, they were listed for about 4 days with everything listed as back-ordered. Tells me they never had them and the listing was based upon speculation of receiving them at some point from Luck e Strike. I'm waiting to see someone that ordered them from BPS actually post that they actually received them.

At this rate, you may begin to find other scroungers before BPS has them in stock, lol.

Just got 1/4 and 1/2 "scrounger" from tackle warehouse.4.99 for 2 1/2 or 3 1/4.
Made in USA Luck E Strike. Nice Gammy hooks.

This is one reason the Scrounger heads are hard to find, simply because the baits where not being produced for several months. In the end we (the fishermen) are being punished, these are unbelivable baits when fished correctly. I know www.allstartackle.com still has a few of the 1/4oz. in stock and you can email me, because I have more then what is showing in stock.


Just to clarify:

This was a business deal that indeed went bad. Not between AAron Martens personally but, with AAron Martens Lures. There was hopes of a big step forward, just didn't pan out between them. I won't get into the specifics of everything and certainly don't wish to point any fingers but, since then, everything has since went tits up and yes, we (the fisherman) are suffering for it. If Luck E Strike somehow manages to get a version of the scrounger available at the BPS listed price, it has been waaaaaay cheapened. I will bet it wont have a super sharp gammi anymore let alone, the correct plastic bill to get the right action. All quality will be down the tubes imo. You get what you pay for!

I can bet an original version of the scrounger will be back before too long, just is a bummer since all the hype is right now. I know all you guys are looking for 1/4oz but, let me tell you that some of the biggest bass caught on this bait have come on the 1/8ths in high pressure CA lakes and the 3/16oz so, if you can find any. Some are better than none.


You can get the Luck "E" Strike Scroungers at Academy Stores. Aaron Martin does not on the rights to the Scrounger Head. The scrounger head was made by another company and they discontinued them a long time ago so Aaron Martin started making them again because he liked using them.
