1. Storm

2. Berkley Powerbait (particularly the leech and minnows)

3. Berkley Gulp! (BTW, they do make some soft plastics too. I have some soft plastic minnows from the Gulp! series.)

4. Gary Yamamoto

5. Zoom

Good question Dane. It'll give us all some additional brand name ideas to try. Thanks.

Answer 4

I fish lots of paddle tails (swim baits) the best (to me) is double A lures

( AA's) out of Temecula in San Diego They have a great line and the rap is they are too soft. I also use Fish Traps and Kalin's swim baits. The zoom red shad 12" worms flat finds hungry fish and (always) I paint my lead heads to match the baits colors Creme is tied with Gambler for fifth spot I buy just one worm from each of them but mambo grubs from kalin are huge fish baits. I also buy them in white and pearl colors which allows me to color them perfectly to the indiginous food my fish are foraging for...try them they all catch in both fresh and salt waters.
