It doesn't give off as much of a wobble and its not heavy enough to cast with a BC.  The 2 inch version is the valuable one.  The 1.5 inchers are normal price on ebay and last I looked there were 2 inchers going for 45 bucks each.

$45 for a hard plastic lure? That's crazy.  I just want to catch some fish with it, not admiring it.  Anyway, thank you for your INPUT!

I wish Black Dog Baits still made their Shellcracker G2.  I still have one but I'd buy more if they were available.  Great wake/shallow crank squarebill swimbait.

When did they stop making them?  I have six of them but that isn't enough!

Well, they may still make them but they've been out of stock on their website and sold out everywhere else that sells them for quite a while now unfortunately.

I think that is normal for them, they are a smaller outfit and seem to make stuff in batches.  They are wonderful lures, I I wish I could find something like them but smaller, like 3/4-1oz.

Which rod/brand would be good for the G2 lure? It weighs about 2 oz so it ain't light for sure.

It's 1.5oz.  i usually just chuck it on my MH topwater rod with 40-50lb braid, which right now I think is an older 7' BPS Bionic Blade.

Are they still in business? I tried calling/emailing but nothing, no response.
