    Jorge....why don't you send a PM ( private message) to Festus Haggen and ask him. There are many manufactures of that type of lure so its goon be hard to say unless Festus remembers what it is.

    I'm pretty sure that's a blue 2" Excalibur shallow running minnow from Dick's Sporting Goods. I went on a spending spree for fishing tackle an entire day in the spring of 2009, hit Gander Mtn, Dick's and Bass Pro Shop. Bought several plugs at close out prices. If you can't find one of those, Jorge, Bass Pro Shops has something similar called the XPS or XTS which would work as well. These are a little slimmer than a Rapala.

    If this isn't it, it is very close? Look at the silver/black one.

    The lure Jorge mentioned is by itself in the right of the photo. Looks like I need to replace the hooks and split rings! It's probably an Excalibur. If not it is a Bass Pro XPS. Just an imitation Rapala or Rebel. It's 2" with black back, blue sides, and white belly. The top lure on the left is a rainbow trout colored 2" Rapala, and the bottom left is a 2-3/4" Rebel. You can see the lure on the right is a tad slimmer than the Rapala, but I think a Rapala or Rebel will work just as well.

    I've caught bluegill, green sunfish, and small largemouth bass on the blue lure, mostly in ponds. It is deadly in ponds fished right over the top of weedbeds where a deeper diving crankbait would dive too deep and foul in the weeds or algae.

    Yep, this Blue and Silver Rebel is pretty close to the same lure.
