Ballerina Plug

I was talking to a neighbor this morning and he was telling me of an old plug he used to use for stripers called a Ballerina. It was a frsh water plug and he would change out the hooks for saltwater. He described it as being about 4" - 5" long and softly rounded on each end. He said that he used to be able to retreive it so that it would dart from side to sidw by as much as 4 feet.

They were made by Pflueger. Search ebay, they are usually fairly inexpensive.

Good info AdamR I just looked and there was one. It does resemble a Zaraspook. I had never heard of that lure before.

Life is like a poop sandwich, the more bread you've got, the less poop you taste.
