No idea about their soft plastics, but their hardbaits were great. The colors were phenomenal too. The Whipper Snapper jerkbait, Warthogs, Flatty Daddy, Jabber Jaw, Scamp and Troll Hunter for the crankbaits. These got alot of great reviews too.... Really hoping Rapala gives these baits there well earned comeback eventually. Ive seen the spinning reels fail a few times. Head the casting reels were actually good. Some of their rods are great. The Muse Blacks were awesome, the M powers remind me of a SC Avid, but just much lighter with more eyes. Ive only tried the soft baits and really liked what I did get. The quality was good and they weren't outrageously expensive. The bubble butt and invader were probably my favorite. I heard that 1 or 2 of the swimbaits were really good for the money but never tried them either. They put some serious time into developing those products, I cant imagine why they gave up on ALL of them so soon. I'm sure Rapala wasn't too keen on having them compete with their own baits. I doubt we'll see too much of anything from them bait wise, other than ice fishing baits. I think crush city will represent them in the soft plastic department from now on. Quote
