Thanks. I am loaded up on Rapala DT's looking for just a couple more, different profile Balsa's to add. I purged all my plastic plugs,SHARBITE makes out again!

Uh oh, Muddy.....I know where that leads.... ;D

As far as some classic baits from Bagley you can't go wrong with - - keep an eye on eBay for the old KB1's with the small round lip.  

Also - both the old version and the new B-Flat are great baits (the new one is called a "G-Force" B Flat and has a circuit bill).  

The old one has a Lexan, square lip and is a little more of a kicker.  I've used both with lots of success.  

Sometimes you can get a killer deal on the old Bagley stuff, too...

Flat-Shad  (I really recommend the Sonny B...the Classic PT is also a great bait for cold water)

Big M (M-Flat)

JawJacker  (check out the Model B if you like Killr' B-style plugs)

Zoom WEC (Hicky, Mutt)

There's many more, but these are some very good ones.

Sticking with Rapala, take a look at the original Shad Raps, Fat Raps and Countdowns. Shad Raps are outstanding, which is not to say that others aren't as well.
