I thought the exact same thing while looking for one yesterday.

That's a big crank - I like it!

I was looking at the Little Johns - I like the other Spro cranks I have. I do own one 6th Sense Crush Flat 75X in baby bluegill that I like. Thanks for responding - I'll check out the Bling.

Just trying to further improve my plastic game. In what situations would you prefer a Beaver/Creature (Sweet Beaver, Flapping Hog, etc) vs a senko type bait. Does cover influence your decision, depth, time of year, confidence? I know the fish can take or leave any bait on any day but what are some things you look for when deciding what to throw first. Thanks! Matt

So I am looking to add a 5' running crankbait that has a loud rattle in it. I noticed yesterday I have mostly silent - what are some of your favorites. Not looking for colors but models please. Thanks! Matt

And this is why J Francho's comment is so true. What works for one person or everyone else for that matter may not work for you. While I certainly like to listen to others reviews and give my personal experience - the best way to see what baits to use it try them yourself. Good luck either way.

Haven't tried the Why Not but I do really like the Ugly Otter. At the same time I've done well with the D-Bomb as well...

Nice fish! Can't wait to one day catch a DD bass myself.

Thank you gentlemen and don't worry I added a pair of Texas tackle split ring pliers to the order as well.

Looking to replace a few old split rings - what are some good all around sizes? Mostly on cranks, topwater, etc. I am looking at the Owner Hyper Wire. Thanks, Matt

I found out they are a size 6 - I was thinking of putting Owner ST 36 or ST 41 - thoughts? Matt

Great suggestion Dwight, I will do that. They should arrive middle of next week I hope.

I am having a little trouble finding out what hook size these are. Does anyone know? Evergreens website only lists a phone number to call as far as I can tell. Thanks. Matt

Went out yesterday (SOMD) and it was pretty windy and with all the rain Saturday visibility was literally and inch or two. Got skunked but nice to get out.

Paging Lucky Craft Man....

Some guy named Dean rojas...

I just bought the TW Delta Craw Smalls Bumpin and will be trying it for the first time tomorrow. I'll see how it does.

When I purchased from digitaka there was no others fees. I paid whatever was the current conversation rate and that was it. I paid via PayPal.

I've only used digitaka but my experience with them was smooth and would do business with them again.

Would love to hear how they do for you - especially the flappers.

What do the pre rapala warts dive to?

Thank you for all the responses. It looks like I'll use the depths provided as a guideline and real world testing to find out.

One day I also hope to join the DD club, nice fish man!
