Road Runner Marabou adds Burnt Chicken

Burnt Chicken is for when conditions darken

The pink/chartreuse color combination known as “Electric-Chicken” has been a hot color for quite some time. But how do anglers adapt when the water or skies darken? This would be a great time to try Burnt Chicken.

While similar to its lighter cousin, the color features a pink / black combination.  The color addition is offered in both the 1/16^th and 1/8^th oz. sized Road Runners.  The twin pack is packaged along with the traditional 12-count strip cards.

About    $3.50 per Twin pak

                $1.99 each

Blakemore New Rock’n Runner

Deadliest Road Runner Lure in 50-Years

While the original Road Runner is part of nearly every angler’s arsenal; this new lure has more action than ever before.

The Rock’n Runner features a quality skirt and a “wobble-blade” attached to the hook eye. The lure is tied onto the blade’s snap; giving the lure a secondary axis, thus the rocking action. Because it’s a Road Runner at heart; the Rock’n Runner offers fish more with flash, vibration, contrast, sound and a slower presentation.

The five colors include; white, white/chartreuse, chartreuse, Fire-Tiger and Black ‘n Blue Bluegill.  Both the 1/4 oz. and 3/8^th oz. sizes feature a Bleeding Bait hook.

About    $5.99

To achieve this natural color; they spray a reddish brown paint pattern over a gold foil finish.   The new color is available in 1/4 and 3/8 oz. sizes.

Where do these lure names and colors come from?

“They usually come from anglers” says TJ Stallings, product manager for Road Runner Lures.  Ironically; it was Stallings who named the original Electric Chicken color back in 1991. Not to mention “Space Guppy”, “Blue-Fusion”, “Pearl-Minnie” and the list goes on.

Why the crazy names? “It’s just easier for anglers to remember names instead of the usual stock numbers like “1002-078” stated Stallings.

Why has “Electric Chicken” been such a good color?  “Aside from it being two good colors (chartreuse and pink) together; the color is opaque. In other words the colors don’t wash out or pick up the background colors underwater…and the contrast doesn’t hurt either. It’s just easier for fish to see.” Stallings said during our phone interview.

How do lure manufacturers come up with those colors and color combinations?  “The Burnt Chicken color was born from necessity. I was fishing a Crappiemasters Tournament on Florida’s Lake Monroe when the winds picked up. The waters grew even darker and you know the rule “darker lure colors for darker conditions” that’s when the idea for the “burnt” version came to mind” …. Now you know.
