Mark ... Have you tried the Rapala? The Boga is the top of the line and proven ... at twice the price.
The Rapala may do more damage to a fishes mouth with it's locking in design but I don't think it'll slip.
The rubber coated Berkley looks like it would be great for picking up beer bottles ..... ???

I have a Berkley from a few years ago, the lip action does not work nearly as well as the Rapala. We will not carry them for that reason.

IMO the Rapala is the best for the money. Yes, Boca and Chatillon are very nice products as well but are more costly.

We can get Chatillon products if anyone is interest. A Chatillon 60 lb will cost just over $100. Details @ http://www.chatillon.com/Our%20P...fishscale.html
