The Old Dutch south end of Hoover had some about 3 weeks ago.

 

thanks guys, i really appreciate the help. surprised i could not find it. i see the price went up. think i used to pay .59 for them, funny, i don't feel that old. we used to throw them off the rip-rap in lake hamilton, struthers, ohio and really cleaned up on the slabs. buried one in my head (both hooks) and ended up pulling a chunk of noggin out with the hooks. all in all, one of the best lures i ever used, along with rapalas and cp swings. again, your help is much appreciated.........rap

 

There is a salt water fly we use for catching bonefish called a crazy charlie that you can buy either @ cabela's that the crappie just tear up. They have two beads as eyes that act as weight's and is basically a small jig (very small) They resemble a shrimp to a bonefish but the crappie at mosquito eat um like they are going out of style. Just a tip might want to give it a try

 

You may want to consider trying the Ice Cut'r Bug for Crappie, we have had some good feed back from customers catching Trout, Bass, Walleye and Crappie using the Maniac Custom Lures Ice Cut'r Bug.

Millers Rod & Gun in Youngstown has them. They are on Youngstown-Poland Rd.

 

Rapman: After i posted I read closer and saw that you are in Struthers so I'm sure you know where Millers is located.

 

no longer in struthers, but i was one of mike's first customers when he was next to the tangier bar. truth be told, that is where i used to buy them. have not been in there more than once in the last 25 years. will be in that area tomorrow and plan to stop. thanks again, i really appreciate it. btw, i am also looking for thompson doll flies. believe they went under in the mid 70s. i have found cp swings at the fly shop in volant, pa. they still get them from time to time.

 

star, picked some up today. marlene read on this site that i was coming. will be going back later this week for more. again, i really appreciate your help................rap

Hey, Rap! Leave a couple for me. I told Marlene you were coming and she just read my e-mail when you walked in. I need to get up there this week to get a few myself. If this lousy weather ever lets up I want to go FISHING!!!

star, stopped and picked up another half dozen. there a some left, if you want them. if not, let me know, and i will go get the rest. again, thank you
