Maria Lures
Wanted to get some thoughts on these.
Personally I think they represent excellent value. I couldn't honestly say that there is daylight in quality between them and premium $18-$30 alternatives. I have caught a few decent fish in my short time fishing with them as well. Why is there such a difference in price? Are they made in Japan? Last edited by punchanello; 13-10-2010 at 06:15 PM. |

Japanese design and manufacture, quality paint jobs, good price, good colour schemes, whats not to like?
I've only swum the shallow crank and it casts a mile, swims straight and I got hits so yep it will get a good run in the near future. |

My experience is the same as yours. Swim straight, good casting, nice colours, quality hooks and rings...I just wanted some feedback from other people who probably have a lot more experience than me with quality lures. Last edited by punchanello; 13-10-2010 at 08:06 PM. |

It feels like a an entrernity since the bream in SA have shown a liking to some crankbaits.... Well today in less than Ideal conditions I managed to crack a solid edgebite and ended up bagging around 20 bream and a heap of Salmon.
The best was 39 to the tip (around a kilo) and the pther were allaround 33-35 to the tip. Maria Shads in the shrimp colour was the key... I decided to puit it on after I had caught a salmon tht regurgitated a heap of small shrimp... Instant action, match the hatch style... A massive bream stole it from me around 1:30pm, not having another I pulled the boat off the water and went straight to the tackle shop to replace it plus grab a few of its identical siblings... Enjoy the pics... Last edited by Shauno; 31-10-2010 at 03:37 AM. |

They are an excellent lure, the shallow crank gets pretty deep.
