Thought on 10" Floating Triple Trout

Post by primus » Wed Oct 05, 2011 5:29 am

Thought about picking one up this winter, can't see any reason why it wouldn't work. That said it would be reassuring to hear about others who had success with this bait before I pull the trigger. Or should I use just the slow sink ?

I would strongly recommend the Southern Trout Eaters video as they cover this bait pretty well.

Triple Trouts also have good resale potential (both in value and demand).

I wish that were the case. I recently bought a 10" tt for $55 from a retailer, sold a 8" for $40(the guy I sold it to later became a good fiend of mine) and I have bought a custom painted 10" fast sink for below retail . So retail on TTs is as high as you can go. Even my nib bluegill was very cheap.

Yet a baby wake from 3:16 can go for over $100 ......
just food for thought :-k

I think the re-sale demand is definitely there but there is no shortage of TT baits so the price for a used one has to be good enough to forgo a new one.
