Try ebay lots of brands, strengths, and sizes.

Air temps or water temps?

A guy I worked with years ago had family in Maine, he would go down to the boats and buy them for like 3 bucks each and bring a couple of big coolers full of them here, they went fast!

Sir, the only place I have seen one was at Devils lake in Ontario 1957, a couple of youtube videos I have seen show people using them with a lot of success. I took uncle josh pork grubs and put round rubber legs on them, my top trailer for small hair jigs. These have also worked for me. https://arkielures.com/collections/plastic-lures/products/salty-crawlin-fry

Bet that would be killer for smallies tied on a 1/8th or 3/16th ball head jig? Nice work Brian!

My biggest smallie was 22 inches, pretty confident it was over 6lbs, but not too much.

1.) 3 1/2 tube green pumpkin for a crayfish look, white and silver for a bait fish look. 2.) 4 inch Zoom lizard, junebug or watermelon blue. 3.) old school Storm wee wart, chrome - black back - red chin. 4.) hair jig, black or brown, with a pork or rubber trailer. 5.) underspin, like the old school road runners or newer options. Can't fault what has worked for you.

KY gel? on a reel or er rod?

Forbidden Planet (1957?) the first sci fi flick I recall seeing with an actual budget? Better special effects? Star Wars 4-5-6? A Teamster since the early 70's, not a fan of mob movies or mobsters at work.

A number of times Snake, but more than 30 years ago.
