With the success of the Name That Fish! series of posts I thought perhaps our readers would also appreciate a spin on the series with a Name That Lure! series.
This wooden topwater lure is about 4.5 inches long, features a spinning prop on both ends, and #6 hooks. It’s also one of my favorite topwater lures for bass, pike, and musky.
UPDATE: It’s a Smithwick Devil’s Horse!
If you have any rare fish or favorite lures that you’d like to submit for either Name That Fish! or Name That Lure! please feel free to email us your submissions, we’d love to hear what about what you’ve found.
Found in the Atlantic ocean, this is a deep water fish spends it time in water up to 2000 feet deep. You’ve got to be pretty patient to target this fish, simply getting your bait down into the strike zone can take 15-20 minutes!
