Lure identification....Help please

[mattym22]

Ive had this gold lure for many years.  It always kills in the shallow water when i troll in the early spring.  Its starting to wear out and I would love to replace it.  There are no engravings or markings that indicate a brand.  Can anyone help me with this.  I love this lure.

Looks to me like it is a renosky chatter stick.I think they still make them,try reno bait company.

Looks like a Renosky Chatter Stick. I think they got sued by Z-man so I dont know if they make them anymore. I see a lot coming up on EBay

Looks like the Z man to me . Certain days it’s a killer on browns and Cohos both as well as kings from time to time. I like em

That's the 4" version.   Its a more square body then the 3 " or 5".    I have a bunch that I got when Z man was

selling them.   EK is correct that there was some type of legal action between Renosky and Zman.  At the time, 

the rep I dealt with at Z man said they were getting out of this type of bait, as they didn't sell.  They kept the

chatter blade on some of their other stuff (jigs, etc.).

 

Renosky is still in business, under Reno or RBC baits currently.   I can't say for sure that they don't make the 4", 

but he does make the other sizes.
