Rick,

That crappie/perch kit you offer is a great starter kit for Custom Jigs and Spins. All must haves in the Winter box!

[Farley]

Summer:

Lindy Rigs

Black and Gold Original Rapala

Northland Fireball Jigs

Bucktail tipped with a big ol' sucker minnow

Husky Jerk

Kens Famous Lure

Sweedish Pimple

Buckshot

plain red hooks under the tip up

Any large style jig (Northerns under the tip up)

This all may change since I just placed an order for the Go-Devils, if they are as good as some of the Pro-Staff say they are, they may replace the Buckshots and Sweedish pimples alltogether on my list. We'll have to wait and see.
