I don't know why companies discontinue making great baits. I really bothers me that they do this. The suspending jerkbait by XCalibur is the EXX4 (Edwin Evers Series). If you know how or where I can get the Blue Nib one and others, please let me know. Unfortunately, when I find them on ebay, they want $25 a piece. whew!
Hi Mike! Here in south LA, in January this year on three trips, I caught my limit three times even after throwing several back in a landlocked lake. I caught most of them on an XCalibur suspending jerkbait and a Yamoto Heart Tail swimbait. Unfortunately, neither is made anymore. I also caught a few Texas rigging a blue/black creature bait. Sheesh! In December of 2021, I caught a few limits on two trips in a brackish water bayou, using another discontinued bait, a XCalibur lipless crankbait (Black/CHROME) shad. Anyway, I went a few times this week and caught them at nightfall on the same XCalibur jerkbait again. I lost the jerkbait I had, but found one on ebay thankfully and put it right to work with good results.
