Lures from the USA, do they work?

[Sean]

I have been looking at some of the Largemouth Bass lures from USA and was wondering if anyone had had any success in oz with them. The main ones I guess are the mouse imitations and the frog imitations....surface lures......Anyone have any recomendations??? I will be targeting Australian Bass. Thanks, Sean:)

scum frogs are good for bass in most dams.. are you looking at queensland, most imoundments in queensland fish well on the surface in early summer....

[tuppence]

why would they not work aussie fish dont know they are made in china!

[Sean]

yeah, but I guess my question should really read do Aussie Bass eat frogs and mice?.....a lot of the Largemouth Bass lures are a lot bigger than our lures for bass. Sean

yeh sean most usa bass lures are better suited for cod, than our aussie bass as there largemouth are huge compared to our bass. cheers bdowdy

they have small mouth bass which are similar size to our bass.
A lot of aussie bass lures are US items. Cotton cordell rattlin spots, Heddons crazy crawler, tiny tad, zara spook & puppy, Rebel crawdad...the list goes on. then look at the swedes!!!!do rapala lures work? of course they do. you just find a lure that suits your fishing. I've got lures designed for trout that work on bream in the salt. I'm betting the designer hasn't heard of bream!!
