In no particular order:

- Jitterbug

- Pop-R

- Tiny Torpedo

- Hula Popper

- Rebel Jumping Minnow in Bone (discontinued, good luck!)

- Rebel Jumping Minnow in silver/black (again, discontinued)

- Rapala F7 in silver/black just twitched along on the surface

Tried  all but the Rebel Jumping Minnow  Allen ! Great go to group of topwater baits. 

Hey John, shortly after this group was started, you posted a photo of some lures on what is now page 17:

Hopefully it shows.  Could you tell me what the double-prop lure is in the upper right corner?

I recovered one last year, hung in a mass of tangled line in the river.  I have no idea what this lure is.

That's a South Bend Nip i dee dee.  I lost that great lure!

Black Jitterbug..... Zara Spook  ......  Grass Frog Hula Popper...... Black Buzz Bait w/ plastic prop......Grey Field Mouse (weedless) forgot the brand on this one.

Vince,always had trouble hooking and landing the fish I raised on the Spook  that's why it's not in my favorites .It has helped me as  a search bait which proceeded to catches with a follow up worm .Jitterbug and Hula Popper i'm on that page with you ! Really should try fishing the Grey mouse and Buzz baits I have .Do you use the above baits in Rivers as well as lakes?

my favorite is a Ozark baby perch with glass eyes the small one  they don't make these anymore they were made of sugar pine and had turbo blades, when you tied in on in the boat, you had to hide it or the bass would be in your boat.

Helluva nice list John!
