8" Shaker......especially for this time of year.
Call Pastikas, I think that they had them for about $40 last time that I checked.

Location: ft wayne, IN		Eight in shaker or 8 in huey would suffice this fall. The six inchers are nice in the spring and most of the year. Speedwakers are nice too. The igniters are a waste as are most of the other models unless you are in "that funky mood" and are patient enough to painstakingly work them. See my post on HR X-ray.

Location: Waukesha & Land O Lakes, WI		Plitz....you have to get the 8" Shaker....there's way more wobble and roll to it than the 6" has.

Anybody fish a 10" Shaker ?

Location: Presque Isle Wisconsin		I fish a 10' shaker that Jim made for me last year.Ive caught three fish on it so far with the biggest 48" on the Turtle Flambeau Flowage.I dress it with a gapen Tail as the thing will still swing regardlesss of the rudder effect of the tail on a glide bait.Its a load to toss but incredible action at very slow speeds.

I'll let you test drive a few different HR's at the Kly tourney this weekend if you go and you can find the one you really want.
