Spro Bait
I remember that thread 8-) He is a great painter and I have a few of his baits I bought before he was so popular. There are 3 or 4 people on ebay that get crazy prices for some of their baits. Allen

What jigs are best for smallies
5/16oz Eakins style jigs in natural colors like browns or greens. Hair jigs in black with a uncle josh 101 work well for cold water. Allen

Need advice on spinnerbaits
I can make you one with a single clear colorado bait but you will not be able to burn it? The plastic blades are so light and swing so wide they have a lot of lift. I have been looking for the clear plastic willows for 3 years now with no luck When I get home I will see if I can powder paint some silver blades with smoke? Have you looked into the black nickel willows? They do not flash as much as silver and I have had good luck with them in clear water. Allen

What colors of jigs should I be buying??
Read what Catt wrote about the bite as it is the best explanation on how they bite. For colors I recommend solid black and whatever color you have confidence in for soft plastics? You will here black and blue preached and that is what I tried long ago that didn't work. When I was in MO for a school an older gentleman told me to get some Eakins jigs and trailers in the same colors I use for soft plastics. The answer was so simple and it has been on ever since! Allen

Whats you favorite shallow flipping bait
The most versatile, consistent jig style I've used in life. Shallow, deep, dirty, clear, smallmouth, largemouth, spotted - doesn't matter.....it murders everything in every condition I fish. I pour my own now..... Nice! What are those trailers? They look like the Zoom creepy crawlers I have been using all year? I use the same style jigs in GP or brown and baby brush hogs in this situation. Allen

Best deal on Kinami worms ?
They do not sell them in bulk and the price is kind of fixed. You can find deals on ebay or Wal-Mart as they will mark them down occasionally. Allen

Berkley Powerbait Bladedancer
This is the first time I have ever heard of anyone catching anything on this bait? :-? I had 2 or 3 that were promotional baits and they did not catch anything. I would have given them to some kids bank fishing but I didn't want the to try them and get so discouraged from not catching anything they quit fishing? ;D Allen

Shackey Head or Drop Shot
DS, I do not like shakey head jigs > The round ones fall over and I think the cork screw and small hook interferes with hooking fish. Allen
