I figured if so many of you liked them I should see what it was. those are apparently collectors items now from the Mepps website What happened to the Mepps® Lusox? While the Mepps® Lusox was a great lure and it caught a lot of fish, it never really caught on with the fishermen. So, several years ago it was discontinued. Your best bet to try to find one would be to haunt all the tackle stores you can. You may be lucky enough to run across one. America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

Lugnut trapper L Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 21,849 SEPA	Originally Posted by Randy Wieland I get the blanks from a company in China and paint myself. After 30+ years of tournaments and guiding, lipless/blade baits are the most versatile baits I found Those are some beauties there. Lipless cranks are one of my favorites too. Anything in gold seems to outperform other colors for me. They are versatile. Speed burning them over weeds, slow-rolling, but my favorite technique is bouncing them off rocks. Those beautiful paint jobs probably wouldn’t look as good after a few dozen rock hits. LOL Eh...wot?
