best new bait of 2006

[ga_hawghauler]

I was just curious which new bait to come in 2006 do you guys think was the best or most productive bait.  This could also be an old style bait in a new color or style.

This suspending bait by far

I didn't have any new 'best" bait for fishing this year. The Fat Ika was dominant again. However, I had excellent results with the Rapala X-Rap, so maybe that's a new "one of my best" lures for 2006.

Where the sweet beavers new in 2005 or 2006.  I didn't start using them until '06 so that would be my choice.  Actually though I no longer use the reaction innovation ones, I use the berkley beast and I know it was new for '06.

I agree with this one too, you probably also gotta add the swimming senko in there somewhere...good chance of being a big fish catcher.

Ditto on the Chatterbait, they were a great additon and I had a lot of luck on them this year. Hmmmmm, I didn't use a X-Rap yet. I guess I will have to add that to my---I am going to throw more cranks and hardbaits next year. What is their appeal?

[Gatorbassman]

That's a tough one for me. I used a little bit of everything. I guess I could say I rediscoverd the lipless crank bait all over agian.

Xrap

IT WAS ONLY NEW TO ME, BUT ROADWARRIOR GOT ME TO TRY THE BOMBER "SQUARE A", WHAT A GREAT LITTLE BAIT. THEN I FIND OUT THEY DISCONTINUED IT. OH WELL, I GUESS I'LL TRY THEIR MODEL "B".

AS I'M PRONE TO DO, I DIDN'T BUY A CHATTERBAIT UNTIL LAST WEEK. NOW I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL NEXT SPRING TO TRY IT OUT.

[justfishin]

The Sandra Bulluck suspender works but, I tend to like the Anna Kournakova or Catherine Zeta Jones better.

X-Rap and Fat Ika. I don't know when the Ika came out, but this was the first year I used them, so they're on the list.

The Ika was my best bait this year in warmer water. The X-Rap gets the nod for colder water.

Cheers,

Thanks a lot Dan... now all my "regular" Matt's blugill series seem crappy. I should have Matt invoice you directly for me, as your post is going to set me back about $100.   :'(

Another vote for the Chatterbait. It's the only "new" lure design I can think of that actually produced fish. Everything else is just a new way of presenting an old concept.
