I have been a triple ripple troller for over 20 years, but I bought some of the Bobby Garland slab slayrs on sale at BPS this past week and used them alongside the triple ripples, same colors or as close as I could get. The BG slab slayrs were outcatching the TR about 4 to 1. Just wondering if any of you guys done the same or have used another type jig that you think does better. Thanks for your input.

In order of Preference...
BG BABY Shads
Jiffy Jigs
Southern Pro Hot Grubs / Kalins
Charlie Brewer Sliders
I like to collect things and that is why my wife will inherit two to three thousand dollars worth of lures someday (please don't tell her, she thinks it is fifty dollars worth of lures.) They almost all have caught fish on different days. The only one I haven't caught crappie on is that stupid Joker lure. LOL.
I caught a few on the joker down at the creek but it ain't been anything to brag about. My selection is pretty close to what Dutch said.
FYI...I have good luck with these as well.
Southern Pro Stinger Shad.
That is a good looking lure Dutch especially for Sinclair. That blue is rocking.
Fireman I sure am glad you caught some on the Joker lure. I haven't had any luck and I bought a bunch of them on sale. Like I said, I like to collect stuff. LOL.
I got a little creek by my house that I can single jig with a pole and it works ok not good but ok. Lol. I still dont recommend them for sure.Quote:

Looks like the panfish assassins at Academy!
I like AWDs. Larger than triple ripple but smaller than Kailins.
AWD is a good bait, I just wish the tails would not pull off so easy.
I've seen BG baby shad out fish live minnows big time!!!! Especially on my custom heads.Attachment 331380Attachment 331381

Dutch,
Are you using these stinger shad baits trolling.
Yes. Run a 1/32 and a 1/48 head...DEADLY. Single 1/16th is also effectiveQuote:

Some days the sliders outcatch and some days the curly tails do. I keep 'em both out all the time.
Dutch where are you getting these BG baby shad. Thank you in advance.
Grizzly Jigs online, Academy and BPS both usually have a good color selection as well. Sometimes Wal Mart, but its hit or miss on colors.Quote:

I only use curly or paddle tails. Never liked the triple ripples. Baby shads are ok but I don't catch many on them without putting some meat on or a bladed jig. I have a billion jiffy jigs but use them much anymore. May have to try them out again. They just don't catch as many as the action tails for me. They too get tipped with meat. I like the Sugar Bugs better for color selection and sickle hook!
Im still a rookie on crappie, however , i discovered last year that BG Shad bodies are the bomb! i didnt even buy minnows again after i started using them early march.
