What is this lure?

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

What is this lure?

Post by PerchSlayer123 »

Edit: I found what lure it is. It’s a space bobber predator lure. Interesting concept but I don’t know how effective it will be...

Found this cool lure in my friend’s dad’s tackle box. What is it?

I haven't seen that exact lure before...but if I had to guess..it's designed for vertical jigging (like ice fishing), considering the line attachment point. I imagine the action would be like an "Airplane Jig"...which is popular for Lake Trout through the ice up north.
The tug is the drug..

It floats! It’s as light as a feather, no rattles or weight and it floats. When reeled in it makes big S turns. I’m stumped!

Most lures have already proved that they work prior to leaving the store, when someone takes it through the checkout.
