11/7 - Sometimes it's a "less tears" situation thats needed

I LOVE ME A YOZURI PLUG. TOP OF THE LINE QUALITY ALL THE WAY. BUT THERE IS TIMES WHEN WE DONT NEED ALL THE JAZZ, BECAUSE LOSS IS ENIVITABLE....BLUEFISH, OYSTERBEDS, BOULDERS.....ALL TAKE THEIR TOLL ON A WALLET.
CHARTER CUSTOMERS WHO MAYBE A BIT STILL IN THE ROOKIE STAGE, MAKE OFF CASTS, HANG A PILING, ALL KINDS OF STUFF HAPPENS..SO, HOW DOES A SMART FISHERMAN COMBAT ALL THIS AND NOT "CRYING LIKE A LITTLE GIRL" , WHEN THE LOSS OF A SUPER QUALITY YOZURI PLUGS LIFE IS AT STAKE????

Welcome in the China effect. Buy the same lure effectively, bulk and for the same price get 5 lures for the price of one.
Just proved in my last video that a cheapy Chinese diving plug even while filing with water catches fish over and over again.
Here is a comparison of a Yozuri Sushimi Jerk bait at $12.00 MSRP, and a (5) for $14.00 Ebay Chinese Jerk bait.
Sure there's a difference, sure there's a difference in "tank tested", and not tank tested. Quality control, paint and rattles.
But the fact is the cheap Chinese lure has the exact same demensions and will still catch a Trout, all the same. And if it comes with no rattles, thats a good thing!! Many times rattles aren't good. The fish are actually liking a silent approach much better. "I've had it happen".
Here's each side by side..one is $12 plus, one is $2.50

JERK BAITS:  Same size











$12.00 + MSRP (plus tax)












Not a complete "knock-off" but a very close resemblance, and same lure action overall.
$2.50 Ebay China lure cost. (No tax, free shipping)
