Finding the SmartFish Lure

LarryMW · #1 12-11-2014, 01:30 PM

Does anyone know where I can find the Kamooki Smartfish lure in Edmonton? I have been told that is now on the market (saw it at a show last summer in Stony Plain), but I have not been able to find it at Cabella's, Wholesale Sports or The Fishing Hole. Hoping to get some as gifts, and for myself. Would much appreciate any help from the fishing community!

I think only online, but thanks, I just ordered three. lol they look awesome for ice fishing. I bet they are deadly for walleye and pike.

Thanks Tony. I didn't know their website sold it direct. Problemo solved... Woohoo!

If you get the chance to test it before me let me know how you do, and vise versa. Merry Christmas!!

I ordered one too. I've been waiting for months for them to come out, can't wait to use it

Those things look awesome! I have to get my hands on a few of those...I think that perch pattern will be deadly on the Pike and Wally's. the action looks incredible. I'm sure it will work great through the ice!

I got mine in the mail today, incredibly fast shipping. They look amazing, hope they catch fish as well as they caught this fisherman!

Thanks Tony..... now i have to explain another credit card bill to the wife

J/K but seriously cant wait to try these bad boys out! Perch and Natural Shad should be a terror on pretty much any predatory fish in AB

Just a little info for ya.
Go to Safeway and pay cash for a pre paid cc and then use that to buy whatever you want.

clarki · #11 12-15-2014, 05:47 PM

this lure is deadly. i've already been out on the ice and got into some waleye action. i used the perch and herring pattern and just placed my order for the shad, yellow tiger and 2 more perch. its great to find a new product that works as good as it looks!

Right on, good to hear the great reviews. I ordered mine today and cant wait until it arrives, also feel good about supporting a Canadian company!

kcward · #15 12-15-2014, 06:57 PM

I hope you guys are right...I just ordered 2 perch, 1 natural shad, 1 herring, 1 green tiger, and 1 crimson tiger. Not sure how well they will work for ice fishing, but should work next summer for sure.

Post your results after you try them.

Thanks

Ive gone through 3 of the banjo minnow kits now.absolutely deadly on pike through the ice,nothin you cant make those minnows do.problem is once the pike eat up the large and med baits the rest of the kit is useless to me.

saskyangler · #24 12-21-2014, 07:05 AM

love the banjo minnow for big pike and smallmouth bass

CenterPin · #25 03-08-2015, 11:18 PM

A friend of a good friend makes these and I cant say enough about them, great lures. Try taking the treable off and replace with a siwash ,hooks less but makes it virtually impossible to snag in the worst of rock piles.

I paid for mine with paypal. Pretty secure. Smartfish doesnt even get my CC number that way.

I placed an order last nite and had a Canada Post tracking number within 2 HOURS !!

DocMcgillicuddy · #28 03-09-2015, 12:07 PM

I heard through the grapevine that Wholesale should be getting them any day now! I hope I get a chance to try one before the lakes close

YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for your info I was just about ready to order one.

Think now I will either use pay pal or most likely wait. They are supposed to be at the Edmonton Boat show this month so should be able to buy them direct I would hope.
