Creek Chub Bait co.

This may be old news but...

I got the new offshore angler catalog last night and notice some new wooden stuff from creek chub.
They had a surfster in three different sizes and a pencil popper in several sizes as well. All wood, thru-wired, etc etc etc. The color options are a little funky in my opinion.

Im really interested in seeing if these are anywhere near as good as the older creek chub surfsters.

Has anybody seen or fished this new stuff or are these brand new?

I'm pretty sure they all are made in China... Salty will know more about this...

A good run is better than a bad stand!

Just be carefull when they re introduced the pikie and jointed pikie they were more than half plastic and didn't hold up to well to saltwater fishing.I've got some. Mike at M&D clued me in to them being fragile.
