Get some Manns 1 minus crankbaits. They will catch fish in most places. Since you are mostly a bank fisherman, they will work a little better than a crank that dives deeper.

Having extra packs of plastics never hurts , or try a few of the bandit 100's , or a couple new spinner baits , heck i could go on and on and on

you can never have enough soft plastic baits.......this i promise. my advice would be just get some pretty basic stuff to start with. spinnerbaits, buzzbaits, hooks, weights, stuff like that. after a while you will get a feel for what baits work best for the way you fish and you can go from there.

Rapala DT-4 and DT-6 in shad color. You likely have many plastic hardbaits but how many balsa baits do you have? If the answer is . . . not many, then go ahead and get those DTs. You won't be disappointed. In fact, come spring, you may want to thank me.

The Spro Bronzeye Popper (soft plastic topwater frog)

Rapala Clackin Rap (some are saying it's better than the Famous *KVD red eye shad)

Rapala's new lipless is way better than what strike king is making. I do favor them alittle. You see they were miy co sponsor many a moon ago. Rapala doesn't make junk. There always ahead of the competition when it comes to the hard baits.

This just goes to show that you should'nt believe everything you read on the forum. Anyway here is a good topwater bait, a SPRO Chug Minnow, you can thank Pig n Jig for that one.

Saw your helicopter lures for sale at Big 5 sporting goods today Bama. Guess you will have to lock them away for a little longer before they make antique status.
