I luckly dont have one yet, but I know allot of people do.

fox model single blade spinnerbait

Rebel Jointed in Gold with a Black back & white belly... Challenger makes one similar but I keep repainting and retuning my old one. It holds a special place in my pike box.

A real Hula popper would be nice too. The new ones are shiza.

Gambler Bacon Rind

Reaction Innovations 4" Boom Boom Tube in Big Texan and Magic Craw Swirl.

I miss the old FLW baits.

I have 2 - both made by Gene Larew baits. First is their skirted finesse craw, and second is their floating finesse craw. Damned hard to find these days.

Gillraker worms.  That double "S" tail had fantastic action with the lightest weights.  They also made a floating model with that tail.  I still have a few left but not many.

^X2. The only worms I've ever used that I would prefer over the Culprit.

edit: I don't know if this is current, but...

I do too! They used to make a 6" craw worm (I don't remember what it was called) that I loved.

BPS tournament series squirming worm 8'' electric blue fire tail!  The 8'' was thicker than the 6'' they still make and the 10'' just isn't the same!

Thanks.  Might have to give them a call to see if those are current.  Details on Zetabait on Google are pretty sketchy.

Ditto 5" Gator Tail---I know zoom makes a G tail but are not the same IMO :)

Kangaroo grub is the top of my list for soft plastics and Rapala Fat Rap in CW for hard baits.

Berkley kills me with discontinuing baits that work well; fat dover, drop shot worm and the 3" power hawg. If anyone has any of these they want to trade let me know as I may have something you are looking for.

Allen

Berkely Frenzy diver crank bait and also their lipless crank as well. Have caught a lot of fish on these baits.
