Hi everyone,

Years ago A.C. Shiner use to make a minnow bait that looked like an oversized Rapala. I was wondering if they still made them or where I could get my hands on some.

Thanks

Dave

Try The Tackle Box in Ohio.I think it's www.tackleboxohio.com.The 675 looks like a Rapala on steroids and is one of my favorite twitch baits.The 10" A.C. is really tough to find and will cost in the $50 range.I modify my 675's by removing the middle hook, clipping and filing the screw eye(middle) and add bigger hooks.The now modified 2 hook model still hooks fish well. I've also experimented with suspend dots and strips to make the bait a little less buoyant. Steve
