I don't think I've ever missed a blow up.  Just sayin'

That would be illegal in California, three hook limit

Interesting...what defines that?  Number of shanks or number of actual hooks?  Probably shanks.  I'd just remove the middle treble if it is shanks.

I would get hooked, just trying to tie that on my line.

Seems like a well thought out, practical law. Like most in California. ?

So youre saying your hook-up ratio is phenomenal ?

If I put that lure where I normally put my buzz baits I wouldn't get one handle crank before it would be snagged on wood.

You might want to start working in a place with better ventilation...

That defeats the entire purpose of a buzzbait. Might as well put trebles on a frog too.

You could fish that in open water, along a sea wall, rip rap shoreline, down a bank, against a dock or walkway

not every lake has weeds and I'm pretty sure the purpose of the lure is to catch fish

 

Take the blade off and you got yourself a snagger for paddlefish.

Hope you're not doing that here, pal.

I was wondering how you got that offset worm-hook attached as a trailer then I noticed this is a  barbless bait .

Pretty sure that would be illegal in Missouri too.

Except in a tournament...all my hooks and lures are barbless.  Just a thing for me.

I'll bet the OP's been smiling since he started this thread. No one would be playing the game if it was 4/1.

The Hillbilly series in Pearl White - just my luck most of those hooks would end up in me instead of the bass !

You’d get the truth out of anybody with that thing. 

You are what we call an "Inovator"

Yep.  And yes this for open water ONLY.  Working parallel to shorelines.

Yes It would... I'm just not that mad at 'em.

Can you image trying to get that unhooked from a fish…. Dangerous for fish and fisherman or fisherwoman to be politically correct.

No barbs.  Easy hook removal.
