Delw Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 I have seen that bait before, I have no clue were or exactly when but it was with in this year. I don't remember the excess on the tail ( thats from were they shot it with an injector and didnt cut it off) makes it look even better with that excess on the tail. the one I saw I am pretty sure was a hot pink one, I think it was on a salmon fishing board.

RipLip Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 I have not seen this before but my first thought is it looks like a piece of threaded rod grinded down and tapered. The ribs look just like threaded rod. They may have started that way a long, long time ago. I know this doesn't help but it could be re-created with some work. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diemai Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 (edited) @ bluesfish Just yesterday I have seen such a lure in a tackle shop in Hamburg/Germany . I is made for the D.A.M. , and old traditional German company and stated on its box to be new in their trout bait line . It was maybe 2"(not more than that) in length . To check their site , go to either The Hard Bait Database , click on "manufacturers links" , or search Lure Fishing UK , also go to "links" on the frontpage , a lot of links are listed there ! Don't know , on which one from these two sites I have come across the virtual catalog of the D.A.M. , nor remember their straight web adress , but it's there , also in an English version , and if my memory serves me right , there are also some US distributors listed . good luck , diemai Edited December 13, 2008 by diemai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
