NEW FOR 2009 – Xtreme Bass Tackle – Great Lakes Perchtm
It took two years of product development effort, but now the new, Great Lakes Perchtm tube has become a reality. This is the most complex tube design yet to come from Xtreme Bass Tackle and this bait follows in the footsteps of solid producers like: St. Clair Crayfish, Erie Goby, Great Lakes Craw, Firetiger and more… This natural tone design will have to be seen at the Xtreme Bass Tackle booth (#2251) because words alone are not enough to describe it. Available in a 2 1/2″ drop-shot tube, 4″ and 5″ tubes.
NEW FOR 2009 – Xtreme Bass Tackle – Slithertm 4″ Skirted Twin Tail Grub
This color is sought after by anglers in Canada and the U.S., and now it’s available in a skirted twin tail grub. This new bait completes the triangle of steady producing natural colors for your tackle box: Canadian Mist, Formula G3 and Slither. Take this bait inland or out on the Great Lakes and enjoy the consistent bite you will get from a bait color that has been tournament tested for years.
NEW FOR 2009 – Xtreme Bass Tackle GOING RETRO! – Light Erie Greentm 2 1/2″ drop-shot tube, 4″ tube and 5″ tube
This blast from the past is being brought back and produced in limited quantities for 2009. Along with Canadian Mist, this was one of the “go to” baits before the explosion of the custom laminated tubes. The light plastic with small chartreuse flake will give you a different bite than anything else in the tackle box.
NEW FOR 2009 – Up to 12 more Combat Fishing Marked Mapstm
If you thought the Marked Map Series covered the Lake and river system before, wait until you hook up with the new Marked Maps for 2009.

Wayne and guest speaker, Bob Mann Sr. from Windsor, Ontario.

NEW FOR 2009 – Combat Fishing Invitational tournament trail
