Without killing my bank account What's your most productive one? Hard or soft style. Would like to stay on the moderately larger sizes 6" +

Yep, you beat me to it.. 7" is pretty big. You sure you can handle.one that big?? The osprey talons are 6" I believe and pretty bulky. Gotta cast em like a Carolina rig. The tear up pretty easy and run 16$ to 18$ so they ain't cheap. I'm looking into some hand poured now from a guy on this forum. He is in process of vetting the color I want. Also want to try the 3.16 baits because of their durability. I caught a decent fishk on a hollow body last yr about a 5 lbr on a 5" swimbait.. so size doesn't matter I guess..

Whoa!! That didint sound right! HAHAHAHA! U said it! I'd grab a Huddleston. Proven giant catcher an wont break the bank. But really all depends how you want to fish it. If you want to fish it over grass and stuff, grab a big osprey
I can backlash toilet paper.

I defer all things swimbait to BluRanger and EOB.

Chris go to TW and pull up their swimbait section. Find a few that get your attention then read the reviews on each on the site. Lots of good info. Got my eyes on a couple as well. The 3:16 Rising Son will be my next purchase.
