Lindy Dancin Tubes / Strike King Slab Hammer

[The Lip RIPPERS]

Have any of you tried these tubes? They look the same to me, color and size. I tried to order the Dancin tubes online and they stated "Some colors not yet available".
I did however buy some Strike Kings at BPS in OKC, tried them the day Stink and I fished Blocker and caught some crappie on them over brush, then switched to a Beavertail and caught bigger crappie. I have read all these reviews how one of the multi-colors are visible to them,....any feedback from anyone else please. Also does anyone know where the new color Beavertails can be had?

I am well stocked on two different colors of the Lindys. I believe they are called Roller Derby and Black aurora. I bought a bunch because after 16 hours of fishing them along with several other baits, they seemed to be the top producer. One thing I noticed about them was that they seemed to last a lot better than any other tube jig I had fished in the past.

The last thing I knew, you could buy them at Academy Sports. They had them in two different places, one was on a jig head, and the other was in a blister pack loose.

I haven't tried the Slab Hammer.

What are the new beavertail colors? I'd like to see them in glow colors.

What I'm anxiously awaiting is the new Lindy Whatsit.

Academy is way cheaper too than walmart and BPS. How fast are you retreiving them or are you using them like the others and jigging them in one place?

Buck; I fish them all techniques, and they work for me.
Smokie; Whats a "Whatsit"?

[SmokyOkie]

Its a new bait from Lindy that Todd Huckabee designed. The best way I can describe it is that the main body is shped kinda like a miniature beer can and is solid, It has a row of legs down either side, and the tail is kinda like a split slab slayer. And, the fish seem to love them.

I understand that they should be available at Academy Sports in a couple weeks.

Smoky didnt we get some of those baits at the meeting..if so I have tried 2 different colors that I recievd and they work well on a roadrunner, seemed to get a few more bites than a bobby garland or bass assissan on this type jig, But fishing it on a jig seemed I got more bites on the super tube from mid south tackle. If this isnt the bait we recieved it sure hits your describtion to a T..I have recieved a box full of these baits from a friend of a friend of Todds and have used several different colors of them and have caught fish on most colors..

I'll stop by Todd's if I can catch him there and see what's up. Last I talked to him he did mention Pradco called in all the pro staffers and asked them to design some new baits. We laughed because there's only so much you can change or modify on any given bait because it really affects the action and how it looks in the water. So this new bait does sound like a totally "new" design.

No, not anything like what we got in the gift bag, and unlike anything I have ever seen. all I can say is that Todd must be kinda like me, got an overactive brain. LOL I don't know as they really work any better than anything else out there, I just think they are cool. and for sure, they are the most sturdy soft plastic I have ever seen.

Ok Smoky..from the describtion you gave and the box of baits I recieved from a friend of a friend thought those were it..now you have my curiosity up would like to check some out..cant have enough baits u no..

[SmokyOkie]

I'm anxious to get a few. The colors are just plain wild as well, at least the prototypes were. I suppose I'll have to buy another box to keep them in as well.

I'll let you know when I find them.
