Manns Stretch 30+

[babalaza]

Back a few months, I was still able to get my hands on some Manns Stretch 30+ in the Rainbow Holographic color. There are no longer on the website and its practically impossible for me to get them. Anyone have a clue of where to find them???

The newer fancy ones with the added noise, fancy bright colors or 4d neptune/whatever they are called don't catch anything for me.

I need the good old rainbow holographic!!!! Any help?

If they are discontinued you'll have a hard time finding them. Do a search on ebay or any discount tackle warehouse's. Also ask you local Tackle shop to check with Mann's to see if they sold off or still have any in stock. Thanks

I called Manns about 6 months ago because I have had real good luck with a certin color & they told me they are changing all of them to the textured which I have had hardly any luck with. Good Luck with your search

And i know why, when the old ones get hot they expand then the paint cracks and falls off, happened to all of mine

When I get them new, I spray them with clear Krylon spray, the paint stays on longer.

Been able to get a hold of 4 of them. Thanks for the input guys. I don't like the look of the new textured ones...


The more fancy the less it works for me, that "normal old" series worked great, then came the holographic, only 2 colors caught for me, then the loud an noisy, which were a disaster for me, then the neptunes or w/e they called with red hooks, yet again they didn't catch on my boat. I am not willing to drop more on the new ones.. fortunately there's ebay where I sold the ones that didn't catch ..

Andy I am assuming you either talking about the chrome/blue, chrome/black or gold/black. The colors really go away easy, especially from the hooks and fish. I never tried any spray on top of it as I have no idea whether they can smell it or will change the reflection underwater somehow...

I do change the hooks on them as the originals(older models) are weak and open. The other thing that is annoying is the ability to suck in or attract colors from skirts and those lure pouches. Strongly recommend leaving them on a tuperware or upside down somewhere rather then a lure bag..
