Hey Kevin,

The 3:16 lures are exceptional quality and are proven fish catchers. The Wake Jr., Freestyle, Real Deal, Mission Fish, Hyper Herring and more all produce well here in Washington State. They're worth the price tag if you're after big fish.

They're also very hard to get a hold of unless you have deep pockets

What color of a mission fish to imitate perch?

I have $$$ worth and I haven't caught anything on them. Might just be my skillz. I have thrown them enough to catch fish, but no where near as often as other baits.

Quality they are A+, you shouldn't break fins or chip paint after one mis-cast like some baits *cough* MattLures.

I really like the 7in Mission Fish for grass lakes and weed beds. Largemouth of all sizes will go after this bait and the swimming action is exceptional.

I have a Baby Wake in trout. Havent caught a fish on it yet, but have only fished it once to be honest. It is a great looking bait, has awesome action, and is robust. 3:16 will replace your lure if you break it casting against cover and such, it's just the kind of guy Mickey is. Wonderful product and great customer support. Good luck getting your hands on one though. The website sells out in seconds when the baits are released. People who have them generally dont sell them, they will trade them for other 3:16 baits. If you do find one for sale expect to sell an organ to pay for it.

Thank you everyone for the responses. I just ordered some rising sons and mission fish for this weekend at potholes.
