Looking for new Lures

[Wagz]

Every Spring I like to try a few new lures and see how they rate.
So I am here looking for either your favorite crappie lure or a new one you want to try.

I need a few suggestions from you guys

Thanks !!

My latest best crappie lure is the Bobby Garland 2" baby shad in cajun cricket. It's a killer!

I ,like many, tie my own jigs - using member 1aB's excellent non-lead jigheads. However, I'm going to use many of the new patterns of "Berzerker" in-line spinners (Wyld Edge Outfitters), as their excellent formation, tiny size, and small sharp hook are ideal to carry a small rabbit strip, waxworm, or piece of pork rind. A very neat looking, functional lure with meticulous hand construction done right here in the USA !

I am also waiting to try a new lure---well, not new,but different. Berkley has been very successful with their line of powerbaits and gulp saying it outfishes live bait. Now they
have out a line of atomic powerbaits in assorted colors in crappie jigs. Here is the link.
I have ordered some, can't wait to use them

Try Bass Pro's Crappie Beaver. Seems like I've taken my biggest Crappie on them. Blk/Chart is my favorite.

We've had a ton of luck on the Crappie Beavers from BPS. But, as far as I'm concerned, you tip anything with a Crappie Niblet, and GAME ON!

But, another question in regards to new lures...if it aint broke, don't fix it. I have found my tried and true combos for different lakes and different times of the year that seem to slay them. I don't want to spend a lot of the time I don't have trying something that might work when I know what does for the particular situation.

Just my opinion.

For vertical jigging suspended Crappie a #3 Chubby Darter.
The weight is 1/16th oz. and the length is 1-3/8"

Never tried them but with all that use them here the Crappie Niblets. We'll see if they're worth the money

Crazy Legs Grub - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5MtNtS6SoM

Though I'm a little reluctant to recommend these because they only come in the ridiculously expensive Alive buckets.

I'll second badbrads recommendation for the BPS crappie beaver. I've been using it for about 2-3 years, but its a unique bait fish don't see and its very effective. I have only ever used the chart. but I'd like to get some other colors. I smack em on the chart.
