I'm a Bandit and Norman guy myself, although I've been fishing a lot of the Strike King bait lately (Ser 5 & 6).

always like Rapala stuff, and have great success with it.  Decently priced, good selection, and nice patterns.

Strike King because of there series 1 and 3's. The Red Eye lipless series is the best on the market imo.

Rapalas and Bombers.  Rapalas if I can only choose one.

Lucky Craft.

I voted for Rapala because they make some great baits with great prices. I use a decent amount of Luckycraft hardbaits too but the Rapala hard jerkbaits produce better for me then the LC hard jerkbaits. The action of the Lc jerkbaits are alot nicer, but the fish just seem to hit the Rapalas more for me. My 2nd choice would probably be a tie between Lc/Yozuri.

Close but Bandit edges out on Strike King...Bandit just has a lot more colors

Rapala if I had to choose just one.

Bill Lewis (rat-l-trap)

It don't need a lip to be a crankbait

Count me as a Rapala guy, but also have ALOT of Rat-L-Traps, Bandits, and Mann's 1-'s.

Who makes the fat free shad?

Bomber.

That's what I thought.Thanks.

bomber here

This site's own Marty Burns (aka Big M)

He can make pretty much anything I want or need from -1' to +20'

Another for Rapala as the favorite, but I am not completely loyal to one brand. If I were forced to fish with lures from only one company, I could do quite well with Rapala.

None of these. Bill Lewis Lures is my personal favortie. Small company with a big impact on the fishing industry.

I always check out the Bandits first.

Then the Lucky Crafts.

Followed by the Rapalas.

Then Bomber.

Rat-L-Traps are favorite lipless cranks.

my favorite is by far rapala. bandit comes in second, and bomber in close third.

Who makes the fat free shad?

bomber used to make it, not sure if they still do, but i know that Xcalibur is making them now.

not brand loyal at all when it comes to crankbaits probably own 20 different brands of cranks seriously. but my #1

1. Bagely

2.Lucky Craft

3.Rapala

RA-PA-LA!!!

Poe's, brians bees, rapala, lee sisson, bass hunters custom crankbaits, and persuader lures.

.dsaavedra. Bomber makes the fat free shad. Xcalibur us to make them.

Rapala #1, Bandit #2

Right now Tiemco and Nories. I have a new favorite every couple of outings.

Nories Double Full Size.

Tiemco Diving Pepper.
