Des plains river still a little high and muddy but I still managed 3 . A sauger maybe 14 inch that slipped out of my hand and escaped , then a 13 smallie.Then nothing for an hour before I landed a 26 inch pike. All hit an ali express crankbait. 240 for the yr.

I went and checked out that AliExpress and have bought some non fishing stuff from them. With the outstanding prices on some of those lures I'm just curious if you are changing out the hooks or are they not a weak point?

Never had to change a hook once. They are as good as American brands because its the same thing . Just different names. The crankbait in the photo is the same as the rapala crackin crank. I have both and weghed them etc…only difference is rapala cost $13 ali exoress $3.98
