Walmart Scissors
They work great for a year or so. With their price, it makes them a good deal. I have 2 years on my Cuda's (about the same size, $1 more).

Classic baits you've never thrown...
I have a Helin surface lure but didn't know the name. Stubby, cigar shaped with a "buzz" blade on front and the usual hook spreaders/ arms for 4 trebles. Black coachdog color.

What is the best lure for spring bass?
Okay, cats outta the bag. I have tried many skirt colors and trailers, but i have it dialed in for (at least) cloudy conditions. 1 tab blk/ blue flake, 1/2 tab blk/ red flake, and 1 tab of chartr. barbed wire, with a red band. Of course, trailer color does not matter. iamboredandneedtogofishing

A painted red Johnson Silver Minnow with a green/black silicone skirt affixed to the line tie, with the back half of a lizzard for a trailer. I usually shrink-wrap a loud rattle to the weedguard....
