Fritz the Cat says buy the expensive one and save an American job. I bet he’d buy the cheap, big talker.

shorthairsrus told nodak angler members , I see scheels want 10.99 for 1 little dice. Wtf. what could he be talking about and explain the responses he got











In a thread on the
Nodak Angler forum, user
shorthairsrus
expressed shock at seeing a single fishing lure called "
The Dice
"
priced at $10.99 at SCHEELS, noting that a similar-looking item could be found on Temu for $1.99.

What is "The Dice"?
While he calls it "1 little dice," he is likely referring to the
Jackall Dice
, a specific type of soft plastic lure that has recently gained popularity (and notoriety for its high price) in the fishing community. It is a small, cube-shaped lure with hair-like appendages designed to mimic insects or small crustaceans.

Explanation of the Responses
The responses on the forum typically reflect the classic divide in angling culture regarding high-end gear versus budget alternatives:
  • The "Support American" Stance: Some members, like user
    Fritz the Cat
    , argued in favor of buying the more expensive version to "save an American job," though others sarcastically countered that such commenters are often "big talkers" who might still buy the cheap version themselves.
  • The "Temu/Budget" Defense: Several users agreed with the original poster, feeling that $10.99 for a single piece of plastic is excessive, especially when mass-produced clones are available on discount sites for a fraction of the cost.
  • Performance vs. Price: Discussions on these forums often evolve into whether the "name brand" lure has a specific salt content, scent, or action that justifies the premium over a $1.99 knockoff.

Would you like to see a price comparison between name-brand lures and their discount alternatives, or are you interested in how "
The Dice
" lure is actually fished
?
