Personally I have 100's of LC's and other Jananese cranks. I really like the XPS! Best lures for the money! Fat cranks and the twin spin and sammy topwaters as well I have cought lots of fish w/ them and definatley reccomend them! The plastics however suck and are really hard.

PS the only thing that you really notice in a difference between construction of lucky craft and xps bait is the rattles LC uses very loud brass and the xps are kinda weak rattles I find both of these lures to loose the paint pretty fast if your catching fish on them.

Conclusion:

Lucky Crafts are better :) If you can afford them x( If you plan on loosing many xps are the way to go ;-)
