So all you that made it to the show. What's hot and What's not? Curious if there is anything new and interesting that is flying out of the booths. Anything I will absolutely have to get my hands on before the season opens.

Thanks

I probably only bought 15 baits so far. The Triple D, 10" manta, Widowmaker has some new stuff and colors, spent 80 bucks there, a new wyde glide, new phantom colors, was up late, that's about all I can recall at this time.

Gordon-Griffith's (sp.) brought all kinds of different lures from europe. I can't wait to try out the stuff I got from there. Triple D's and grinders looked to be pretty hot (they sold all the durst colors)

I wasn't going to buy anything, except maybe a new MuskieFirst t-shirt and hat, and just enjoy working the Southside Muskie Hawks booth and talk to old friends, but I was drawn like metal to a magnet to some new cool colors of bulldawgs. Plus I couldn't let my fishing partner have colors I don't have. Think spring, AL[:p]

The 5.5" Baby Jerko's sold like hot cakes. I shared a booth with Keith Eldrup and watched the little Jerkos evaporate!

The 5.5 inch Jerko looks sweet, I can't believe how east that thing worked in the pool demo. Can't wait to throw that little gem. Other than that the Triple D's and Shallow Dawgs were hot. Have to make more room in my boxes>[:bigsmile:]

I can't believe nobody has mentioned the new Suick.

That thing was the best seller at Rollie and Helens.

I bought a few.

Absolutely beautiful lure, the new Suick. Steve Suick was packaging them in his booth for the retailers, it is so new. I think they knocked a homer with the new patterns.

One bait that is NEW this year is the 6" Drop Belly Slammer Glide bait. I used one last year and they are absolutely awesome!!!

I heard they will be "SHOW ONLY" and at the Milwaukee and MN shows.

Here are a couple of prototype Slammer Drop Bellies. They work awesome. Sounds like Billy will have the 6" available at the Milwaukee Show. Probably some custom colors to boot. They are pretty sweet.

The shows are a great place to pick up custom colored baits. Here are some sweet custom colored Jerkos and Squirkos.
