Have to say I favor these Depthraiders BEST!

I tire of them, I let Tommy use them too.

A perch baby depthraider is my #1 bait, but I just started using the Mann's super stretch 1- this year and it's been a very good producer.

Trolling: 10" Jointed Believer....gotta love the built in "blow out" action that these lures exhibit when trolled.

Casting: Poe's Giant Jackpot.....who doesn't love a Jackpot strike??

Best lure ever would have to be one I have built myself. Of all the lures I have tested, however, the Phantom most impressed me.

C'mon guys, let's put down our #1 fav. lure..not 20! Or maybe list the one specific bait, that has landed the most ski's for you...
I have a black and orange topraider that has around 10 fish on it now...followed closely by Lee Tauchens Water Chopper, I have one of his first ones that was once black..it is now basically wood colored from all the paint being gone...around 6 ski's on that with too many hits to remember...next would be a Mepps Marabou, black/silver..around 5 ski's...

My favorite lure is my newest Weagel in jailbird pattern. I haven't caught a fish on it yet but looking at my other chewed up Weagels I know it'll catch fish.

Before the Weagel I would have to say my favorite would be a toss up between a Suick and a Topraider.

My favorite is the 7 " Salmo Whitefish with the metal diving lip. I have caught more muskies on this lure than anyother. Fav colors are Blue/silver and Black/Silver. Caught my biggest on them and lost my biggest as well.

For me it's the jointed baby depth raider in the parrot pattern. Too bad Roberts doesn't make the color anymore. Great for casting or trolling on dark water.

My best lure ever is a orange burt. Its probably taken 30-40 muskies in the boat up to 42 pounds.

Best trolling lure is a shad colored Tuff SHad. Its taken several over 50" and probably over a 100 fish in the past 2 years.

I always have a 8 1/2 " Trueglide "Hustler" tied on, no matter the time of year. Either"Custom Carp" or "Marks Minnow" (formally know as White/black/silver. That's for you Pikiespawn).

I have hundreds of lures, but bucktails and suicks have always been my number one producers hands down. Biggest fish this year so far came on a Musky Buster tandem blade bucktail.

No problems on this , gotta be a 9"unweighted, red perch ( i think that's the color) Sledge,
the bait called " Mikie" . This lure has caught fish from Ohio to Ontario and all points in between. You can work it on the surface like a Jackpot and it catches fish, work it slow enough to keep it under the water with 18" jerks and it walks the dog with the best of them. I can work this bait down to about 4' and it catches fish, what more could you ask of a old friend?
