Location: St. Catherines Ontario Canada | They are designed by a guy here in Niagara, Grant Kopper, they have been at the fishing shows here in Canada, some tackle stores that have them are Pete's tackle, Grimsby tackle and fishing world, all these are in St. catharine and hamilton ontario, they do ship, they are a bit pricey at $11.99 apiece but trust me once you pick one up you will be buying one, i bought 8, the perch were specifically designed for the upper niagara river and lake erie where Grant has been chartering for years. |

I talked to them today. They are available at Critters Wolf River Sports in Winneconne, and Ace Hardware/Wilderness Fish and game in Suak City. |

| Just spoke with Critters... they won't have any in until March 15th.... $12.95 each
Thanks for the info, I might have to sell a few Flicker Shads to raise enough money, I swore I would not spend a dime on Crankbaits this summer, but...

| We all need counseling! I pickd up a few more of the Zalt Zams this year to load up all 6 boards. They have some awesome color selections not a lot but the paint is good. and a nice rolling wobble.

| no one has actually answered my question |
|

| It's a trick question on a Walleye site! This is our passion and many of us fish different bodies of water in various conditions and at various times of year.
Now if you were to ask what my favorite bait on the Wolf River on April 1st is I would tell you a Yellow Jig and a Minnow, on the second it might be a purple or black, depending on cloud cover and water clarity. If it's June 1 on Bago it's a shad rap on the 15th its a T-Stick if it's Oct 30 on Bay de Noc its a purple reef runner. If it's May 5 on Erie its a husky jerk. If it's July 4th on any Northern WI lake its a Miller Lite or a Crown and Coke!
We have no 1 goto bait we have thousands of go to baits! It's an addiction Man, and we all need help!
Good luck

| Dom, sssshhhhh..........not so loud.........at $9.00 apiece these little soldiers don't need any company! I'd like to continue enjoying my successes with them before they get over populated out here! but try the one with the discontinued rapala color. or the real pretty one and keep it under your hat! These little soldiers work hard for me and get their ass bit everyday I don't want them to get jealous on me.
Good Luck

| Hard to go wrong with Shad Raps. They can take higher speed like no other and come out of the box ready to run, which is a good thing for a novice. Buy the minnow color and perch to start with . . . 5's and 7's. |

| Summer on the might MISSISSIPPI, hard to beat a willow cat other wise pulling cranks in the form of a Salmo, Hornet in perch patern with lead core.
Or by late summer pitching hair jigs to the rocks or throwing some wine and roses.
And if that doesn't work, there is always Tunas Bar in Genoa and you can look at the slobs on the wall in the case while putting back a couple cold ones. |
