Super User Micro Posted July 13, 2008 Super User Posted July 13, 2008 It's not just an ugly lure, it's an ugly lure with science behind it... http://mystictackleworks.net/neurological.html :-? Quote
MaxDal Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 Yop that has to be the worst looking bait of 2008 ! Scientist and artist doesn't seem to match. I'm pretty sure I'll never buy that. How do you tie the lure to your line anyway ? Quote
Super User Sam Posted July 13, 2008 Super User Posted July 13, 2008 It is an unusual lure. May work. I will allow the guys to try it out and let us know how it works. Quote
Big-O Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 I like the theory behind it, but that doesn't say that I like it, or does it? ;D Big O Quote
Cory20 Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 T-rig and Raul both already have them. But Raul wins because he has 4 and T-rig only has 3. Quote
fretfishman Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 in a nutshell, I'd say it's too ugly for me to use, but the fish would probably love it. ;D we've all seen fish eat things much uglier than this, I suppose. Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted July 13, 2008 Super User Posted July 13, 2008 i like how most of those arrows in the diagram point at nothing! ;D Quote
Crabcakes Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 It has "Morphologically designed Water Displacement action for Lateral Line Stimulation." Wait did i read this right?!!?... If my translation is correct this lure actually wobbles when retrieved. This revolution will change fishing forever. As an added bonus not only does it have ambient diffusion reflectors rather than mundane holographic foil, but one of the arrows actually indicates the lure is "self aware". Quote
BIG M Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 A crankbait that leaks fish juice, it's been done many times. You can drill a hole in the belly of a wood bait and insert a piece of sponge and do the same thing. Quote
Super User A-Jay Posted July 13, 2008 Super User Posted July 13, 2008 Something about this just rubs me the wrong way. If this is "The Future of fishing" - I'm thinking we are heading off course. This website presents a list of 10 different "Professors" who came together to "invent" this very "advanced" lure. . . . . Call me old school, but I bet the below list of men and their contributions to the sport of fishing will prove to be a bit better . . . . time will tell. I probably will not pony up the $$ for this one. Lauri Rapala The Finnish inventor of the hand-carved balsa wood minnow that serves as the archetype for all jerkbaits to come. Nick Creme The Texan who invented the plastic worm and revolutionized bass fishing for all time. It is fair to say that all of the radical innovations in modern soft plastic baits ultimately owe their lineage to Creme. Andre Meulnart The French engineer who invented the Mepps Aglia spinner. There are all kinds of great in-line spinners including Blue Fox, Roostertails and the Panther Martin Fred Arbogast The Akron, Ohio inventor of the ubiquitous Jitterbug, as well as the Hula Popper and numerous other classic plugs manufactured under the Arbogast banner. James Heddon Along with sons James and William, this Michigan entrepreneur was likely America's first tackle tycoon. The Zara Spook and Torpedo remain must-have lures for modern fishermen. Fred Young This Tennessee whittler created a bass fishing secret weapon with his hand-carved Big O the grand daddy of all bass crankbaits. Scarce and expensive, early bass pros protected their investment by transporting their Big O's in egg cartons. Stan Sloan There seems to be a lot of uncertainty as to who invented the first safety pin spinnerbait. All of the sudden, spinnerbaits were everywhere. But this Tennessee tackle maker gets credit for his Zorro Aggravator ~ The lure that launched a thousand imitators. A-Jay Quote
Super User Jimzee Posted July 14, 2008 Super User Posted July 14, 2008 I laughed at it. Man that thing is ugly. ;D Quote
Super User Redlinerobert Posted July 14, 2008 Super User Posted July 14, 2008 Silly. Totally silly. Quote

Super User T-rig Posted July 14, 2008 Super User Posted July 14, 2008 I'm betting on T-Rig. I would never buy that horrible looking piece of crap! Quote

detroit1 Posted July 15, 2008 Posted July 15, 2008 I would probabally buy one if it was under $5. I look in my tacklebox and see some strange-looking baits, and i bet you do too. I'm not saying that i would fish with it (although, how could you not try it), but ,unfortunately, i also buy lures just for the"museum". And the "i can't believe you caught something on that thing" from my fishin' bud ranks high on my list of things i like to hear. Quote
Pitchinkid Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 LOL IVE SEEN A FEW UGLY MEGABASS IN THAT OLD TACKLEBOX TOO Quote
Masshole Mike Posted July 16, 2008 Posted July 16, 2008 Ill just wait until Jimzee buys 1 or 6 then i will give em a try.LOL Gotta love a cuz thats just as crazy about fishing I may have to pass on this one AJ, it's awful ugly. kinda like this year's yankee roster... not only are they ugly but they stink, too! ;D Quote
