Caught'em up to 9 pounds on a rogue . Lost a monster on Conroe once. I had it at the boat, it dove one last time. All I got back was from line tie to diving lip. They catch fish everywhere. Smithwick made small, Med and large ones. Hooks were worthless.
The Redfin was popular then, but it had no action compared to a rogue nor the great paint jobs.

Interesting seeing some of those colors on the charts, and hearing "new color!" on some lures today. Almost nothing is new. LOL
Tough to beat a Rogue. Look at what Van Dam throws a lot: spinnerbaits, jerkbaits, crankbaits. Reaction baits that mimic shad. He'll throw a worm or jig if need be but that's not the center of his wheelhouse. Wasn't surprised when he won the 2005 Classic on an old Rogue.

The perch color worked best for me. I liked the devils toothpick too. I admit at around 18 I went top water crazy. The crazy ape color was just weird to me.

Probably because they sold the company. They are a PRADCO company now. I loved the toothpick too. I never have used topwater lures in salt water. I have seen monster reds in Mobile in Grand Bay while I was throwing a buzzbait and never got a strike.

Wood, when they first came out there were no rattles. I drilled and added them to mine.
