some in crank baits; with single hooks on the tail end;; my rascals; can be used either with a fly rod; or a spinning rod;;  just now; getting into using spoons for blue gills; still experimenting with those;;  biggest thing is;; what ever they happen to be hitting on at the time; is what i like to use !

very practical response there Carl.

Talking about lures, was on Evil bay this pm and searched for mini crank baits and found a few sites ( China ) that offers some beautiful crank baits like. rapala, Yozuri, strike King, they look just as good as the marque offerings at a substantial price savings, example, ten (10) mini lures they look like the yozuri Killifish for $7.99 or a lure that looks almost like a snap bean (8) for $5.99 has any of you fine gents purchased any, heck the ones we buy in bass pro shops are made in China anyways at $3-5 per pure ....
