White Big O

[Bob23]

Hi!
I've been reading recently about the famous Big O. I have a pearl one (among others) and read that the white one would be way better than a pearl one. "Oh, great, I'll have to try that!" I said... Problem is, I can't find them anywhere. Plenty of colors (like 18-20 of them), plenty of Pearl red eyes but not white. What am I missing here?
Thanks for your help!

Should be widely available. Have you tried Sail?

Canadian Tire, Walmart, Sail, Cabela's, one of those should have them. I was wanting to get one on the weekend, they had them at Walmart in Carleton Place but only in a pack of like 5 in a variety pack. No singles.

I've caught a CRAP load of fish on the chrome/black big-o. Usually I have 3 rods in the boat, one has that big-o, another with a Pop-R, and the other with a rubber worm or spinner bait.

Thanks for your replies.
I did not think about Walmart. I did not find it at CT (they have many colors but not white) but that's the only place I went physically. I looked online at Sail and the likes. But maybe my problem is that I was looking for the orginial Cotton Cordell ones (that's where Google pointed me to when I typed Big O) but surely many other companies out there are offering the same thing...

At first i thought it had two heads lol

I was as confused as you are... I have used the white ones for years... so WHY did they rename them to "Pearl"?

I actually thought the silver top ones were pearl, but they are actually called Chrome.

So... buy the Pearl ones, they are the right ones!!!

They were really really hard to find this year, so I had them on back-order for a few months, they just came in yesterday!!!

They no longer make the smallest one, but I never caught much on the small ones except sunfish anyway.

I have them at Paddletales in the 77 size and the 78

The pearl one I have is not the same as white, that's for sure. Sort of an off white. They must have changes things around. Too bad they don't make the small one anymore, sometimes they were better.
Edit: Steve I just looked at a few sites and they all still show the 1/4oz 2in. model...
Cheers

Thanks for your help guys. Glad to see I am not (too) crazy, Steve!
I'll try them, I guess that's a very good way to see if they work for me!

Thanks!
