One of my favorite jerk baits. Fish catchers.

I've been using Smithwick Floating Rattlin Rogues for Striped Bass in freshwater for years. VERY effective in the Spring (although it is a good idea to change out the hooks for stronger ones. I've had many of the manufacturer's hooks straightened). I use the Tiger Roan color, although not all tackle supply houses carry it. I found it at Discount Tackle, and to my delight it was 15% less expensive than everywhere else! On top of that, I ordered on 2/2 and my order was delivered on 2/4. Amazing, Oregon to Pennsylvania in 2 days. I ordered other stick baits too, and they were also less expensive than other sites. No doubt I will visit Discount Tackle again.

Good for saugeye

I've been fishing these rogues most of my life. I live in north Louisiana and back in the late 80's I had the privilege of meeting Mr. Jack Smithwick. He used to have his shop in Shreveport. Best year round bait, but really shows off in spring and early summer.

Smithwick rogues are a staple in bass fishing. And they catch fish!
