Had good luck last year with Timber Tigers DC-5 intable rock green. I think you can get them at Bass Pro.

For the fishing I do...
Minimalist list:
Floating stickbait
-Rapala or Thunderstick
Suspending bait
-Smithwick Rattlin Rogue or Husky Jerk
diver
-shad raps or Reefrunners
In the suspending category it's a toss up which one i'll reach for first, but in the divers if i could only have one it would be the shad rap.

Fire Tiger deep Thunderstick junior! My most productive of all time on Erie (for me anyway) and they quit making them! Oh well, maybe I was just used it a lot more than other lures.

Don't know what they call it, but there's a Wally Diver in a tiger pattern that's black and chartruese -- an almost always "hot" lure.

Hi Ray, Wish I could take credit for that saying but I plagiarized off the net somewhere. How's IL ice, messy like everything else?

Did anyone mention the Reef Runner Little Deep Diving Ripstick?
The new Storm ThunderCrank looks good, will have to see.
