Its Halographic (with FlashFoil in the shad body)...which is really cool (lifelike too!!)...the tail is "Salt Impregnated..:eek:?? ..It has an internal lead head..(looks to be about 1 1/4 oz.) ..which is connected to the hook!!:)..a Rapala VMC hook. It also has the "wild eye"...the eye wobbles in its cavity. I picked up a package of each...."THE GOLDEN MULLET"....pictured below...and the "BUNKER", which isn't all that different. ....SURPRISE MR. STRIPER!!!....:D |

bloo,
I have little doubt that these will be killer plastics. The salt content in the tail might make for a little bit more hold time when a critter bites into them. Based on the position of the ring for tying, it should be great for deep drifting for fluke and sea bass. Nice find! The pearl ones should be killer during the September mullet run. Storm also has a new squid jig that sounds good. Here's an excerpt from the press release: STORM LURES EXPLODES WITH SOFT PLASTIC LURES Five new series of soft plastic lures to hit stores in 2002 Wildeye (Saltwater and Freshwater) Three saltwater and three freshwater versions make up Storm’s Wildeye series of soft plastic lures, all developed with crazy3-D prism eyes. For saltwater use, the Paddletail Minnow comes in two sizes (5 and 6 inches), both with an internal lead head with soft body surrounding. The Paddletail Minnow features natural-looking patterns enhanced with a holographic swimming image foil. Hand-poured, with bio salt impregnated tail, the Paddletail Minnow comes in six patterns (Mullet, Pinfish, Croaker, Sardine, Redhead and Golden Mullet). Also for saltwater is the Hair Squid, coming in four sizes (1/2 oz., 3/8 oz., 3/4 oz., 1 oz.) and six patterns (Red/White, Green/Yellow, Blue/White, Yellow/White, Pink/White, and White/White). Hand-poured with a 3-D prism eye in the rear, it also has a combination of hair and milar, with an internal lead head with a soft body surrounding. All of Storm’s saltwater lures come with VMC stainless steel hooks. |
If the fish like them half as much as the fishermen we will have to get a bigger boat!:D Saw them at M+Ds last week but did not get them thinking I still had time but now that the word is out looks like its a trip to Mikes this weekend!:happy:
|
They look very sweet - up close & while fishing, FW & BC were experimenting with them last year...
Reeldream - welcome to S-B!! |
I bought a couple bags of em last week, they're real nice looking:D
|
All I can say is don't delay on gettin them guy's, they work really, really good. Some of the vendors coming to the show will have them too!!! So hit M & D's and stock up now before there all gone!!!
|
Yeah, those look good. I thought I had a secret weapon when I got a few from BPS... they also have a jerkbait that looks pretty sweet. Its also a wildeye something or other.
I had a feeling fisherwoman would see those and give 'em a shot. You're basically removing the part of the "shad" that makes 'em look unnatural... the lead head. That pearl and the bunker look yummy. |
