| Another 25 or so bulldawgs, some more gliders, and a weagle or two 
Seriously?
If I buy 10 lures at the shows I will be surprised.
I still haven't used the ones I bought last year, or the year before that...

Location: Belleville, WI | I have only one bait on my wish list so far for the off-season . . . by far my lowest total yet. 8-inch Slammer minnowbait. I may pick up a couple more D-Raiders and a banana bait, just in case the old-standbys go bye-bye.

| the NEW 6 inch squirly tail phantom,,looks great for coldfronts
Lee Tauchen said he might have a limited run of creepers
Dennis said they may have a 2-2 1/2 pounder bulldawg but I dont know if he was "messin' with me;
maybe a vol 3 "just big muskies' DVD if its out in time, those guys had a incredible average of 49.5 inches for a many multiple fish couple weeks this year. |

| None, I'll just continue using what I have, and add all of the "seconds" to my box.
I'll be hauling around a box full of 10"ers this year.

I had a chance to fish with the 12" Dunwright Lifelike bait late this season, all I can say is the bait is even more awesome in person. Twitching, slow crankin', stop-n-go, all worked great. Can't wait to fish this bait over green cabbage next season.

Do you know what patterns they are coming in? I saw the pike and the lizard in the video. Did you catch anything on them when you used them?

Location: north central wisconsin | A few more G Logs and broken Logs, some heavier GP Thumper spinnerbaits for trolling, and a few more clevised double colorado bladed GP Thumper spinnerbaits similar to the one I designed for Greg this fall will top the list. Plan to hone in on my favorite trolling lures, particularily a few more musky magnets. Should get a few more big rubber bodied spinners with double blades made, similar to my old standbys with the single #10 blade in the current lineup. Will be picking up a few rylure 650 wobblers and husky tapdancers. Plan to modify a few of Jakes for neutral buoyancy. Will sell more lures this winter than I buy though....hopefully. |

| K-Bob,
I got a 12" Lifelike Pike in perch color. I received it late in the season, just before ice up. I threw it a total of about six hours, I caught one 38" er on it and had two other follows. It's important to note that during this time the only other thing catching any fish for us were live suckers. Another fisherman I've talked to got a 44"er on it about the same time. I really wish I had it for the whole season, I'm sure It would have caught lots of fish. I love how it hangs suspended in between twitches.
The colors that will be made available in are going to be numerous.
Have a Happy Holiday Season, Jim. |

Maybe I'll use the money for a row troller and hire somebody to troll row it.

| i agree with brad. i am no where near a bait freak anymore...i know what baits catch fish for me and those are the ones I buy. i probably threw 4 different baits 99% of the time this year.

| OK, I notice all of the multiple answers all have one thing in common. All are plastic lures. Are they just soooo good, or do they get ripped apart and are pretty much a one-fish lure?
I used regular dawgs when they came out, and I still have about a dozen. I only have a couple mag dawgs, but out of all of them, all but one has been half-assed repaired and not from trophy muskies. I finally broke the muskie cherry on an uptown dawg last year on a 40+- fish. All the others have been ripped apart by pike. I've glued them. I've used a torch to repair them. Every repaired lure has torn completely when it was hit the second or third time.
I love the action, the ease, and most of all, the figure 8 ability of the lure. When I get a follow on a dawg, I will 8 it high and deep, fast and slow, and do it for a long time. It's a figure 8ers dream. I just think that the durability is a drawback.
With gliders that I use alot of, I can coat any scratches , tooth marks and chips with some Devcon epoxy or nail polish...usually both. But injured dawgs are like a horse with a broken leg for me.
Convince me to stick with them.
