Nolan Aker Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 I'm looking at getting the Black Dog Baits Shell Cracker G2 but wanted to know if there was something better in the same price range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcaetano2905 Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 (edited) If you like soft swimbaits you can get a Mattlures U2 Bluegill or A Mattlures Ultimate Bluegill. The Little Creeper All American Sunfish is great too. Other options (that cost more) are the Jackall Gantarel or Gantarel Jr., Mattlures Hardgill and a bluegill or perch colored MS Slammer. The one that worked the best for me was a bluegill colored River2Sea S-Waver (168). Almost broke my PB on it.

Lots of big toothy critters in these Minnesota lakes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danthefisherman Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 Lots of guys would also say the Gantarel or Gantarel Jr. ... or you could wait for the Gigantarel if you want something bigger! timcauliffe, ZanethePain, swimbaitman and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waynem Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 Hardgill for the lipless variety and Toxic Wade Hoggs for the lipped type. Of course these will run you a bit more $$$$ than the G2 Shell Cracker. wallyc and Ceaser 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
