Do you know anything about a Yellow Magic +1
I bought two of them at a garage sale and have never seen one before. Im not sure what weight it is. It looks like a Y/M that has been stretched.

I don't think they make the +1 anymore. It is an awesome bait. What color did you get?

If there is a MAGIC topwater bait, THAT is the one. As Lani said, they are no longer made and HARD to come by. I just bougth one for $40.00 and missed out on 2 for $37.50 each. They are a YM on steriods. A friend of mine turned me onto them back in 2000. I called the importer and they had 15 left so I bought all 15 for $13.99 each. This is a BIG FISH bait and there is an elite pro that will pay $150 each in the original packaging, if you have it. If you do not want it, I will double the price you paid and have you send it to me. They are THAT good of a bait. You can do everything that the 1/4 oz. does, but with more spitting and walking action. They used to not be able to sell any, now you cannot find any, mostly from Japan on eBay. MOF, why don't you just send it to me and I will test it to see if it is a true +1 for you. LOL. Hope this helps.
Tight lines, keep safe and good luck.

Forgot to say, it is 3/8s oz.

you know, nothing wrong with seven men who met on the internet going for a swim together

They're very hard to find. Almost never see them on ebay anymore.

A friend I turned *(BWG) onto them about a month ago now has 4 he bought, all off eBay from Japan. But, the minimum he paid, I think was $25, but that is a STEAL on these baits.

What makes the Y/M so much better than the other pop-r style baits? What makes them worth the 10 extra dollars a piece? I use pop-r style baits often with good success and want to know why most on here prefer Y/M. Interesting topic I think.

As Thad has said, the +1 are special. They act different and spit a mile. I got mine from Japan but I got 4. I should be good for awhile. I will go after them if I lose one on the lake!!!!
Thanks for the tip, Thad
