Fisher Mirto off the top of my head I don't know. I'll have to go out and check and see if it etched on the bait somewhere. I only go to a few places to shop and it was an item I had to see in person. I think I got them cause I couldn't find the Yo-Zuri snap bean any more and still looking.

Dick, what are those three lipless one called?

Comment by dick tabbert on November 3, 2012 at 8:28am

John I think your right I think it's probably more territorial than any thing else.

Comment by John Sheehan on November 3, 2012 at 8:24am

I think Cranks work well during spawning time for big males .

Comment by John Sheehan on November 3, 2012 at 8:23am

Yes Dick I think  these fish WERE trying to eat them not protecting nests like in May .They could be  territorrial strikes ( get outta my feeding area) I guess .

Comment by dick tabbert on November 3, 2012 at 8:16am

You wonder what them fish are thinking the baits won't even fit in there mouths.
