Was out fishing a deep weedbed with a lipless crank in a rental boat. Didn't have a trolling motor and was marking schooling fish suspended above the weeds. Dropped the anchor to stay on the spot, and after we were done fishing the school (caught 2 small walleyes) I lifted our anchor, only to find this hooked on to the anchor line!

Sorry pic was too big to upload, but it was an old lure about 4" long shaped and painted exactly like a musky. Pretty cool...

Reduce the size/ density of the pic and post it.

I wanna see!!!!

IM INTERESTED NOW!!! posttt itttt somehow

I see it .its a invisible banjo minnow that was on a chartruse helicopter bait

here ya go!

 

picture doesn't even do it justice, its so cute!

Hasnt been down there too long, the split rings aren't even rusted. Maybe a month or two at most. Looks like someone's hand carve, cool lure. Someone was probably upset losing that one!

Stainless steel wont rust looks like a.salmo or creek chub pikie

Stainless steel wont rust

 

 

I beg to differ. 

Salmo?

Cool looking lure. Nice find!

Depends on the grade i suppose..or how much contamination before processing .i have cheap split rings and high qaulity .i use cheap in fresh water with no probs and the better in saltwater for yrs with no rust.ive got a spook with high grade split rings thats outlasted the hooks i change each yr .and it stays in saltwater 6 months a yr .for the last 2 yrs

Salmo?

Lure company from Poland. They make a few baits that look like little pike/muskie.  

I think it was home made. The nose part was very inconsistent and It looked as though the person carving it had slipped with their knife. I don't think you can see that in the picture, but one side is rounded and one side is flat.

Nice find indeed! And yes, stainless will rust. I use to test Craftsman stainless tools. Stainless means just that, stain-less, not stain proof.

I did know that, I was questioning if it was a Salmo or not, but thanks for the info.
