Location: Appleton,WI		What do you use for adding rattles to plastic baits to make the bait loud?

-Lead?
-Glass?
-Copper?
-Brass?
-BB's?

Location: Chicago, Beverly		Add-A-Rattle brand rattles, both types they have. your talking like BullDawgs right? If your talking crankbaits, usually lead shot from like shotgun shells, different shot sizes.

Location: oswego, il		I don't know who makes them but it's two rattles in an orange capsule. I stuck them in a crankbait once and it resonated throughout the whole bait.

Location: In the slop!		I like copper plated steel shot the best. It is hard to find though. If you have a buddy that hunts ducks or geese, grab a couple of his shells, (I like bb's or bbb's). Just two shells will do lots of baits.
