Yamamoto tubes

Post by zelmo » Mon Aug 29, 2016 7:42 am

A few years ago I got a deal at Cabela's on some Yamamoto tubes. They became one of my go to baits as they got more strikes than any of the other tubes I've tried. Now that I am running out of them I am trying to figure out what they are because they are marked 297 PRL/SMCHRT.

I know that currently 297 is Green Pumpkin with black flakes, but that is not what I have. Can someone help?

Do they still make these? A friend has been looking and thinks they're discontinued.

I don't know if they have been discontinued, or if they are only available in different markets.

You can order them direct from Yamamoto.

These? http://www.vics-outdoor.com/gary-yamamo ... 8-3-5.html
The smchart should mean small chartreuse flakes like the one in the pic.

I don't think I see pearl with small chartreuse flake, but perhaps one of the other colors would interest you...
