Looks pretty sweet, but you'd have to put a gun to my head, to make me pay $28 for a popper!

'Zilla,
Heed not the naysayers! It WILL work as advertised. All you have to do is tie on that TWENTY-EFFIN'-EIGHT DOLLAR (US) lure and throw it into the heaviest cover. Oh, almost forgot, it only works on 4 lb. test line. For that much dinero, I'd buy a couple of Rapala SkootterPoopers, a bacon cheeseburger, fries (SuperSized), a diet Pepsi(TM), and a Moon Pie(TM) for 'zert. FR Reader and Advisor |

You can buy lure retrievers, which is what most people that fish with high dollar lures do.

also know that lure retrievers do not always work. On a boat though you can usually get to the snag... when i fished the susquehana, Every time i got snagged the guide would turn on the trolling motor, and when we pass my bait it would magically pop up

One day I was a little bored and bought two $39 lures and three $30 Rago mice. I had about an hour to kill a few days after they arrived so I drove out to a lake and on the first cast one of the mice broke off mid cast.
I was hoping the wind would blow it in to me but after about five minutes I realized it was going farther out. Thirty bucks insn't a lot, but for a lure it kinda was and I really wanted to not get even one retreive with it. I actually waded out and got it. I was stupid for going out there for it. When I got back to shore it was getting too dark and I haven't tied one on again yet. I'm not sure why I get the expensive stuff becasue it just sits in the garage. I also spent I think $84 for Doug Hannon's Original Fishing Snakes but have only used one for about 20 minutes. Favorite thing I bought on the internet is the Huddle-Bugs. They work really well for me. I bought two of the trout ones there too but haven't had a chance to use them yet. |

If I'm not mistaken, thats a top water bait. No problems hanging it up.
I just use a Splash It. (in my concern,not that great of a lure) The best top water bait I've got is an old Pop-r from the early 80's. This bait has alot of teeth marks from past use. After modification it works better than the rest of my Pop-r,s. This particular bait is a confidence bait that I use only in tournaments.

Saw this one late too- Have you gotten a chance to fish it yet? I was wondering how that simulated gill stuff would work.

The gill thing would work. I made something like that a while ago, only thing is it was ahrd to epoxy the little channels so i couldn't get it fully sealed. But yes, it does work.
