I can't repeat what he posted on another forum for obvious reasons, some of the verbiage was off topic and it was**** another forum...

It was real funny, I wonder how long you took to think those amusing bait colors up..

What part of "up North" are those baits produced??? LMAO.....

You did good, I'm sorry you hit the W.O.S. for 2-weeks. Think of it this way, you still got us... LOL...

Hey Man Come On. Those baits are in the early development and concept phase. That was no different than the smallie beavers, double wide beavers, big unit, and sweet beavers etc. already on the market. My name is Richard and my baits are gonna be called Yankeee 's Worms. What was your favorite color? I know that's what happens in mod land - those guys laugh and laugh at the stuff then decide to ban me.

I thought it was funny. What I didnt agree with is you getting banned over it. I dont think they realize how many guys they run away from their site because of stuff like that.
The TFF is made up of about 90% internet fisherman. Most of them dont even know up from down.
So, I'll be $%^& if they tell me what and how to do things!
I like the Dog D%^& Red color. I think you need a senko type bait called the "Doggy Lipstick"!

I talked to Jerry about it last night, he's not worried about anything..

Sinkey talks to him almost daily.. We can't divulge any information other than whats already been said.
Yes, some under handed dealing went down with some CAD drawings that mysteriously came up missing from a private file only "a" staff member could have possibly accessed.
And wouldn't you know it, that "X" staff member starts a bait company with his first exhibit bait being called a Tornado..
WOW !!! kinda odd, the resemblance to the Rattlesnake GB has is remarkable.. Imagine that.

Unfortunately, it is a part of the fishing business to have ideas stolen/ripped off. It is bad form and Hag will not last because of it. Karma has a way of biting back.

Yank, I did not get to see the thread you posted but from the looks of it here I bet it was great... :-)
Thank you Lord for my family and the waters I get to fish

HAHAHAHAHAHA....... Yankee this might be a turn in the right direction for you my man......

This kind of stuff happens all the time like the great wizard 'Picou' said....

-Senko........Tiki Stick
-California Swim Bait.......every other swim bait
-zoom trick worm.......every other trick worm
-Madman craw trub........Yum craw bug


Back in the early 2000's I fished for Mad Man lure out of Amarillo when I lived in West Texas. Darren cam out with the craw tube and it became one of the hottest things out. He was a smaller bait distributor with a good size shop in Amarillo. Yum got a hold of these and changed the slightest thing and was able to put Mad Man out of business..........

I hope Grande Bass pulls through and I think they will I believe they are big enough and most people believe in there product.

It just sucks that a people can change the slightest thing like adding a rattle pocket and think they have the latest and greatest thing out. It also sucks that because the ol HAG is promoting on a sight like the forum where he has a few followers trying to get on with a bait company that can't fish for @$%# moderating for him and turning this into a one sided battle.

I'm a true blue believer in Grande Bass and will go to bat any way I can......

Looks like Grande Bass may be guilty as well.:-)


Kinda looks like a Brush Hog and a Fork Creature mated and their offspring was a GB mutant, lol.



Zoom the original

Maybe Bro.... But really look at the dynamics of the bait. Positioning of the appendages and shapes are not the same. Don't get me started..LOL...

It looks like Bass Pro has a registered trademark on the title "Tornado" for a spinnerbait. I am not sure if they have a claim or not but I know of a crank bait company who got in trouble for using a trade marked name and he found himself in a lawsuit.

I can remember a few originals that there are now 10 different models of. At least I think these were originals that now have multiple copies.

Bass Assasin is what I consider the original super fluke. Fin-S was the first I saw have the fluke design. French Fries were copied a lot. Sug-O's were another. Chatter-baits is a good one. I don't remember if Hoo-daddys came out first or brush hogs. There may have been another before them.

Patents must not exist in fishing lures or they are very vague to what is copying.

Vague is the keyword in Fishing Lures.

The way they get by is a minute detail change such as adding a rattle pocket. hahahahaha oops I went back.

No really they can change a 1/4 of an inch on a bait and ot takes the patent out of the situation.
