    I'm big on the Mambo and loaded Red Fin (small one).
    I'm in too Monty. I will try with bombers you can use the manbos and redfins. I will still be looking for dead things to take pics of when out there plugging. Hope you will be doing the same.

    Definitely looking for dead stuff, its become a habit to check out objects to see if they are dead, ya never know what is out there.

    How time flies! Its a sad day when bombers and redfins are no longer the NJ staples or go to plugs.

    Theres always two bombers in my bag and its one of these colors: chicken scratch for day and night and yellow over white sometimes gets replaced on dark nights with black.

    Can't leave the car without a smokey joe Redfin in both 5" and 7".

    The bomber was still king just a few years ago; if they redesigned it to cast further it would be king again IMO.

    The main reason SP took over from bomber is bombers cast like **** and no one really likes the 3 sets of trebles. In the 3 shops I repair rods for you can't give bombers away. If your old enough to remember Bomber replaced the Hellcat and Redfin. Hell the cell phone replaced the CB on the fishing scene. Also Mambo's will fall by the way side because people won't pay $20 for them. At $9.95 the SP rules and out casts anything and catches. The SP also holds in strong current where a Bomber ,Redfin or Mambo can't go. Also the new Bakers are outstanding and keep up with the SP with a profile more like the big C10 Redfin. Nothing is for ever only thing guaranteed in life is change..

    Pay attention to what history has taught us or be prepared to relive it again
