Benny's Baits Posted February 20, 2018 Report Share Posted February 20, 2018 Hey guys I'm a new member and love this site it's been a lot of help starting my new hobby. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good reliable shallow minnow bait similar to a rapala original floater. I'm looking for a size around 2.5 to 3" without rattles. I've already bought 2 styles from LPO the mains and their other minnow but not 100 percent pleased. Any help would be much appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonteSS Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 I bought the X80 from predator and was disappointed that it was a floater. 3.25" long with rattles. Just buy Rapalas and scuff and repaint. They should be very cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aulrich Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 I can get that I joke with my wife that I only have one hobby and that is collecting hobbies Wlure might have something worth looking at, I have had good success with some of their blanks some other were duds (the normal dangers of dealing with off shore product). Though more to do with dud shapes vs bait to bait quality . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
