I'm wondering if they're worth $15. I love the Megabass 110's but at $25 each I can't afford to get all of the colors I want. The Xcalibers look good but I need to hear some results before I click all of my lure money away. Thanks, fellas.

They are a great bait. I've had tons of success on both models(the standard one and the deeper one). Just be careful with them as they are delicate. I have had the bill break off of 4 or 5 of them. Pradco said I could mail them in and they would replace the bait, so I am going to do that and see how it works out. The reward is much greater than the risk on these baits for sure though.

Thanks for the info, guys. Ronnie, do you like the H2o better? I don't live anywhere near an Academy store, but it would be worth the drive if they catch fish.

When I'm looking for a hard jerkbait the Xt3 is the first one that I'm gonna pick up. There was a guy up here selling them for $7 and I told him they were underpriced. I cleared the peg of the colors that I liked.
