West Coast Baits

OG Reissue Light Trout *PCS EXCLUSIVE*

$39.99
OG ROMA TROUT REISSUE – LIGHT TROUT PCS SHOW EXCLUSIVE This is a true OG Roma Trout reissue — poured the same way I made them before West Coast Baits even existed each and every bait is unique and hand made one by one. This is the pre–Early West Coast Baits Roma Trout style that a small group of guys remember from the early days. A lot of big fish were caught on these original baits. For this PCS drop, I brought the original design back one last time as a tribute to the OG Roma Trout vs the modern version. Old vs new. Past vs present. ⸻ THE OG DIFFERENCE The original Roma Trout had a completely different feel than the newer versions. • Thicker body profile • Bigger wedge tail • Heavier bait overall • Softer / less durable The 9” OG version actually measures about 9.25” and weighs close to 7oz, giving it a slower, heavier swimming action. It also features the soft outer skin layer as the original baits had. You can literally pinch the outer layer and it reforms back to shape, giving the bait a unique soft outer texture and quirk that the early Roma Trouts had. ⸻ CUSTOM PAINT – LIGHT TROUT This batch features a unique Light Trout color created specifically for the PCS Show. Each bait is custom painted the old school way — subtle tones, natural spotting, and depth designed to mimic real trout. The process for this batch took 40+ hours of hand work. Hand poured. Hand trimmed. Heat treated. Custom painted. Heavy coated. Every bait carries the character of a true handmade garage made swimbait. ⸻ PCS SHOW DROP Pacific Coast Sportfishing Show Exclusive Costa Mesa + San Diego This is a ONE-time drop of the OG Roma Trout style. Once these are gone, this version will never be produced again. This is a tribute run to the original Roma Trout, and very likely a future collector’s edition for the guys who know the history.
