Millenium Lure Rattlin Shad wreaks havok on Bemidji walleye!!


GullGuide

Recommended Posts

Hey all,
I'm not trying to pimp these lures on ya, but spent the weekend pulling cranks on Lake Bemidji. The Millenium Lure Rattlin Shad in the Look Alike Red Ear Perch and Shad pattern was absolutely deadly! We long lined them about 150 feet back along the weedline and held on. The fish just slammed these baits!
If you get a chance, try them out, you won't be dissapointed.

Intersting choice of lures Gullguide. I can't say I have given the Rattling Shad a big workout for walleye. What made you go with a lipless crank for walleye. The weeds? Lots of fun I bet.ScottS

We just decided to try something new and the Rattlin Shad was the first thing that came to mind. It was the smallest size.
Also, it ran about as deep as a #5 Shadrap which we also used. The weeds did not factor into our decision at all since we were running the outside edge.

You were in the area and didn't let me know?? I'm hurt, maybe next time. It would be fun to meet sometime.

Take care!

You can see the Rattlin Shads in the Crank section at:

For the few that have been using them, they have been ultra-hot lures this spring/summer. They're especially good on Rivers, but work very nice on the Lakes as well.

Not too mention they cast as well as they troll.

      I have heard it's because of the drought. I know in my area ( meeker co.) the sloughs that they trap minnows in have dried up.

      Excuse my ignorance, but was is driving the bait prices? Usually the shortage is due to a late ice-out from the swamps and streams. This year should have been much better.

      I should probably learn to use the 6+ containers of lures I have collecting dust in my tackle box. We got on a decent crappie bite the last couple of evenings and I broke out some plastics.  I caught some crappies on them ,just need to build my confidence in using them! I did notice they didn't seem to hold on to them as long as minnows!

      Great news, thank Skunked  
    • jim curlee
      Minnows are 50 cents each, and leeches are $50 a pound.
    • SkunkedAgain
      Absolutely. I get full bars all-along the drive from Cook to The Landing, and out into Head O Lakes bay. I can't say that I've stared much at my phone signal anywhere else besides on my way to Black Bay. We still don't get much for service there because there are a lot of steep slopes with tall trees in the way. That was expected though. The tower is definitely providing better service to the area in general IMO.
    • PSU
      Any updates on this new tower? Has it helped AT and T customers throughout the lake get better service?
    • Jetsky
      Thanks for the heads up. Cigar.
    • monstermoose78
      The price will blow your mind if they get some

      Went in to Lucky 7 to get some crappie minnows today. All they had were crappie minnows and fatheads. She said to call in advance for the opener, couldn't say for sure if they'd have rainbows, shiners, etc for opener!
