Name This Lure...
Most people don't realize that in addition to my other interests, I'm also a part-time lure designer. Here's one I've been working on and tweaking for quite some time now. It's a completely original design; pliant yet stiff. The knobbies are for, uh, increased sonic hydro-harmonics as the bait is retrieved. I envision this lure as a swimbait-jerkbait hybrid, sort of a cross between a Zara Spook and a really big fluke.
I can't wait to try it out this spring. I think it's going to be a fish-catching machine, but for some reason the dogs love this thing. I can't keep 'em away from it...
I'm working on the marketing and distribution plan now, but I need to come up with a name. Any suggestions?

ReplyDeleteYou know, I just realized that some of you may not realize that it's actually a retrieving bumper and not a giant French tickler.
ReplyDeleteMy bad. When good jokes go wrong...
Damn.. I was gonna say name it the fish retriever or the dogfish, but your last comment kinda derailed me.
ReplyDeleteThe Dogfish. That's perfect...
