  1. Amen! A deep teeny, wee, mini, super or maxi R will put the hurt on them especially when the water is a little cooler and the crankbait bite is just starting.
  2. Very similar color as Baitwerks for sure but the Fat Pappa has a brighter orange belly.
  3. Russ Lane is taking credit for the Fat Pappa 55 crankbait....not the color. Same as Mike M. taking credit for the Rock Crawler
  4. Spro Russ Lane Fat Papa 55 Crankbait in Olive Craw
  5. If they would even add these two existing Spro colors it would be a huge improvement along with the Olive craw that was mentioned earlier.
  6. I would even like to see the Fire Tiger wiggle wart color on the Rock Crawler.
  7. Didn't spray this one....just one I use for future reference.
  8. Yes...I would say they are very lame. They need some options with a lot more red or orange.
  9. I just bought a green phantom and it has a good knocking sound. I'm more disappointed in the lame colors of the Rock Crawler than anything else. I'm ready to paint a few with the old wiggle wart styling.
  10. Almost as many uses as Bubba has for shrimp...
  11. I've caught a lot more fish out of a white bottom boat than a black one....Lol
  12. Color mattered to CC. He even talked about how important the gold hooks were on the black shore minnow and frog colored spooks.
  13. I feel like Lunker Lure color is very critical. Blade color is just as or even more important than skirt color.
  14. Thanks for the offer!! I really appreciate that! I think I'm going to go ahead and purchase one and try it out. I found them on Amazon for $149.00 and free shipping. I'm thinking if I like it I will buy two and mount one transducer on my trolling motor and one transducer in the bilge. I'm just wondering how good the sonar image is and if you can see your line while drop shotting? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CJJBMDO?keywords=vexilar sonarphone&qid=1445262442&ref_=sr_1_2&sr=8-2
  15. Great video on how to securely mount the iPad.
  16. I don't really know. I'm just wishful thinking. Just as soon as I buy the down scan model they are guaranteed to come out with side scan the moment the 30 day return policy expires. The navionics split screen feature is awesome for both vexilar and Ray marine.
  17. The hummingbird and lowrance thread got me to thinking more about trying vexilar and Ray marine and using an iPad which comes out with a 12 inch screen in November. A lifeproof case and locking ram mount would be a great setup. Only negatives I can think of might be glare, overheating and not being able to network. Thoughts? If Ray marine adds side scan with it's current down scan I know I'm pulling the trigger.
  18. From all the pictures I saw and from his interview he said he was throwing the color Loon. If I was going to pick two colors it would be Powder and Loon.
  19. As well as Clunn.
  20. Looked to me like the frog had paddle tail legs.
  21. Exactly! Just look at all the variations of the brown craw.
  22. The power generation and current is making the drop shot bite absolutely tremendous regardless of the high water.
  23. Best advice I've ever had was reading on this forum about Mr. Babler's drop shot set up. Follow it word for word and you will have success.
  24. I've caught more on the drop shot this summer than I ever have before. The key for me has been knowing what active fish look like on the graph and only fishing a spot when I find those conditions. The fish seem to tell you really fast if they want to play.
