I've resisted so far, but which one should I buy and try first? ![](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/usergals/2014/04/full-30144-10455-gary.png)

NICE! Good looking baits. I didn't know he was into that many hard baits now. I had to go check his website.
If I was buying one right now, I'd try that Tate' in baby bass.

They carry them at Wally-World, $7.46 ea. The red sq. bill worked, just noticed the others have to try the top waters.

I have not tried any of those . But he use to make a rattle bait under the Kinami brand that were fish catchers but you had to change the hooks.

These come with 1X triple grips, so I think the hooks should be fine--but I'll probably change out the front one anyway.

I change the ones on the sq. bill to #2 shorts, seem to get better hook up. But I change all my hooks out on everything.

I've fished a bunch of the 300 series crank (pictured on the far right) and have done very well with them.

On the box lower left says Mustad triple grip but not size, imagine they're a size one.

How did you determine the hooks were 1x triple grips? I read it on the Yamamoto web site, so it must be true. ![smile smile](/forums/images/graemlins/default/smile.gif)

Got a couple of the Tate topwater walkers. The hooks are size four 1X triple grips. After reading the reviews across the web, looks like the popper and the topwater walkers get consistently positive comments.
