Dexter or Rapala?

Which do forum members find are the best Bass catchers. Dexter wedge type lures or Plugs?

for me it depends where im fishing, i prefer to use a rapala/plug from deep gulleys and rock marks where you dont need to cast to far , and i use the dextor when i need to cast that bit further, both work about the same for me , i never go bass fishing without taking both though

I use Dexters for everything. Think they are fantastic. Never tried Rapalas.

What's the difference, got any pics? I'm fairly new to lure fishing but find it great!

Actually, I've just googled it, I have a few Rapala's, will get some dexters as they seem better for beach spinning as they seem to cast further. Going to Worbarrow Bay in 2 weeks, anyone got any tips on what works best there?

sort of resembles a sweedish pimple. I think I have one of those. How do you fish it?

Hi Greenheart

I have lost too many Rapala's to risk them in anything but the completely snag free areas. My homemade knife and fork lures are doing well, I had a pollack the first time out and a schoolie bass the second. Hopefully tonight will be third time lucky!!!
