I was looking through my Jerkbaits and most of them would be considered glide baits. What non-gliders are essential to have? Give me your top 2 or 3.

#1 would be a Suick. However even these can be modified by weighting them to be in the glide class.
#2 I consider the Reef Hawg to be a Jerk Bait. Some will argue that this is also a glider but if not weighted and if you keep them from geting water logged they are still a jerk and rise lure.
#3 The Bobbie bait worked slowly certainly acts a lot like a Suick.
#4 An Eddie bait, could be a glider also but has many characteristics of a Jerk bait as well.

I second the Suick vote. I also have a few Squirrely Burts, which is a great lure to toss in heavy cover.[:bigsmile:]

Suick, old Hi-Finn Foolers (the wood one's) and Bobbies are some of the better ones.

My three favorites, in fact, the only three different true jerk-baits in my box.
1. Stalker (out of production for a while but hopefully they'll return)
2. SUICK (9in, non-weighted & weighted)
3. Reef hawg

 Burts are my favorite. Suicks are other good "chop" baits

1. Suick/Bobbie
2. burt/squirrely burt
3. bugsy bait

all those lures can be worked other ways, but great to pull.

 Widowmakers T-Bone, a suick/bobbie hybrid with a rounded belly. You can cast this one into the wind.
