I was going to post a picture of a big fat turd, but I guess I"ll keep it appropriate. I also listed this on the recent thread about "worst lure ever bought".

too funny  ;D ;D ;D

if you walked it just right across some scum in a stagnant pocket so they didn't get a good look at it, i bet they'd hit it

haha

;D ;D Perfect description! You know your's are the first turd jokes I've actually belly laughed at since middle school. Won't tell my 8 year old what I'm guffawing about here though. I tell him to keep his poop jokes amongst his friends. Guess that applies to me too -as it should. Thanks for the chuckle.

That video is just pathetic. Someone should make one from a little hollow plastic football -laces and stripes and all. It would do the exact same thing -probably better. You know...if I find one, I'll do it and post a spoof video of it. That would be fun.

Thats about it, you may get one cuz of the commotion in the slop but you actually have to be able to make it walk,that which it is incapable of, or any action of any kind for that matter. This was one of those I threw for about 5 minutes and could already tell that the joke was on me.

I got 3 for sale if anyone is interested

I'm really liking the spoof lure idea. I guess the idea is that LOTS of the right sized moving things will catch fish. The hype around many of them is laughable, but annoying too when you think about some of it being just quick-buck BS, and MEANT to dupe anglers.

Years ago I had a "Creepy Crawler" set which allowed kids to cook up plastic creatures in molds and a little hot-plate. I had a mold for a Tarzan -which produced a little plastic man. I melted plastic worms and poured a little human topwater bait lol. I caught a bunch of bass on it, to the "Jaws" theme song; "Baaa-ba...Baa-Ba...."

Another time I bought a kids "Snoopy" float and took it steelheading. It was prime conditions and I knew my waters and fish, so I crushed 'em. Snoopy had nothing to do with it of course, but guys were coming up to me and asking where they could get one too. ;)

;D Ya know, I might just head over to Toys'R'Us an find some fun things to catch bass on.

One of the things that struck me in this year's Classic, was that KVD, with his location control, could have won the event with almost any lipless -or any number of ways. The KVD Strike King baits are well designed and thought out, but I believe he would have success fishing LOTS of lures. The horizontal fall of the Red-Eye he touts was once the "flop-over-on-it's-side-like-a-dead shad" look he talked about for the Diamond Shad several years ago.

I guess it's good I'm not in KVD's shoes, 'cause I'd end up getting silly creating lures, and the only sponsor I'd have left would be Toys-R-Us.

You could start with one of these...

It's slotted for the hook and everything.  ;D

Seems to me that it would work just as well as any hollow bodied frog. It has the same basic profile and configuration. The paint job seems a little ridiculous, but paint on topwater baits don't matter a whole lot, IMO.

What heddons you talking about? Had some luck on the torpedoes. just curious

looks like a paint lightbulb

NO!!!!!!! a lightbulb would catch more fish

I thought it was a sweet idea to resemble a dying bass as the surface lure, but i thought the paint job was an absolute joke!

You know...it would be really fun to see who could catch a keeper sized bass on the silliest thing.

I once won a bet by catching a bass -albeit a little one -on a bare hook. I used a #1 bait hook and burned it.

Sounds like it, but thank you, after the first post about these things i was really thinking about getting one or two.
