2011 ICAST | Rebel, Booyah and YUM with Hot New Baits

delicious
We stopped by and visited our friends at PRADCO to see what their brands Rebel, YUM and Booyah had to offer for the upcoming fishing seasons.
The first bait we liked was the Rebel Frog R. The hard bait is a topwater walking bait that has a very unique shape and much shorter and stockier build than we've seen on walking baits. It has a very unique sway when worked with short twitches. The finishes look amazing on the baits and the price point is very attractive at $3.99. It will be available in 4 patterns and it weighs 5/16 ounce.
The next bait was sort of a theme for this year's ICAST and it's the Booyah Pad Crasher hollow-bodied frog. This frog has a slightly narrower profile than it's predecessors and has more of a bassboat keel on it to help it walk better in open water. It's very soft and features a good strong hook. It also has a hole in the back that is strategically placed to remove water that the frog takes on with each twitch. Again it's priced right at $5.99.
The next two baits we looked at actually together were the YUM MightEE Power Finesse worm and the Pumpkin Ed head. This worm is a 10-inch long, thick-bodied, straight-tail worm that was designed to be fished on a larger than average Pumpkin Ed shaky head for the Power Shaky technique that has been adopted by anglers all across the south.
The worm will come in 12 colors at a price of $4.99 a pack and is infused with F2 scent.
The jigheads come in 3/16 to 5/8 ounce sizes and will retail for $3.99 for a pack of either black or brown heads.

What's up with all the new frogs? Do that many ppl fish with them that often? The best thing I've seen from iCast so far is the spin shot drop shot hooks from VMC.
