has anybody used anything close to this thing???? it looks like a toy with a hook on it...i had to post this here because i knew someone would have a good comment about it

its kind of out of the norm, but I bet a hungry fish would strike that thing if it were hungry. It doesn;t look any stranger than a chattr bait or a buzzbait

It is rather odd but my supposition would be that there are many states where small bats still reside. Austin Texas is one these many places. So my thinking is that if perhaps one of these small creatures were injured while out chasing its forage and it ended up on top water flippin', floppin', etc.; why wouldn't a bass eat it? My guess is that they would.

Looks like this guy has purchased a bunch of plastic animal toys from some dollar store and put hooks on them.

Perhaps that is all that it is.... a toy with a hook but if it will work, why not use it? LOL. I sat and wathced a TV show just about 45 minutes ago where a lady took a pink colored ear plug, stuck a hook thru it, feathered in a few blades of yellowish grass into the body, and stuck a brown leaf on the hook. She caught a pretty nice fish with it and had her dinner served to her by the guys she made a bet with.

Yea that looks dumb as he**, what a joke, lol.

I'm not willing to speculate whether that lure will work on bass or not, but I have seen, first hand, a rubber duck and various fake rodents catch nice northern pike.

I'm sure that thing can catch fish in the right circumstances but it does look ridiculous. It's a friggin toy with a treble on it! ;D ;D ;D

If I'm going to use something strange then it should be made for fishing. Bat or cicada, bass can't tell

the difference.

For the night halloween fisherman that has everything. Give me a break. The young girl in the pics makes the whole thing look credible .

Holy Batman Robin! ;D

Just what I was thinking ;D

May not be a weird lure after all... bats swoop down over bodies of water to eat insects all the time (they do it at my pond), I wouldn't doubt a hungry enough largemouth bass would jump out of the water to grab a bat or cicada to eat. Matter of fact, down at my pond, there's constantly bass jumping out to grab 3" long dragon flies.

JMO...

You can catch bass with almost anything but I wouldn't even touch that stupid looking thing never mind fish with it!

my buddy paul saw a bat hit the water and start flopping around then got engulfed by a huge bass. so then he went searching for "bat lures" and his best result was a double bladed black buzzbait. he tried that a few nights later and shur nuff he landed himself an 8lb bass.

now that just goes to show that bass will attack a bat.....as for my opinion...this lure is a piece of cow dookey. LOL! seriously...for one, it wouldnt float, for two, it'd have no action, and for three, it'd fall apart!!!!!!!!! lol what a joke.

I watched a video the other day of a guy catching fish on a jalapeno pepper with a hook in it.

Lol don't get me wrong I wouldn't want to tie it on either! I'd be the laughing stock of the entire fishing world lol!

[bassmaster8100]

That is a pretty crazy looking lure. Not something I would probably ever use.

where im at outside philly their are so many fricken bats at night that i eventually have to quite because they hit my line over and over again and damage it

i dont think this is a dumb lure at all.....i bet this is the lure that would pull that 10 lb bass out of my lake where the average bass is 1lb....

i was actyually thinking about a bat lure.....the pic and presentation is pretty bad though
