Brian you need to drill holes in the bottom and screw eye treble hooks into the bottom of that one.
Hmmmm that gives me a idea.

Is that what that's called? Shad? What is that stuff, I don,t think I've seen anything like that before - is that a doublet? looks a bit like BO

but it looks like it may have a doublet on it to give it extra dimension. What do you say beef?

Oh nice on Beffjello, that's brilliant! I can see why you picked it out, what a corking little stone.
Exactly as rckhndk said - it's a little fish which is sometimes used as bait for bigger fish, but that cab looks perfect! It's exactly like a lipless crankbait, so what's next then?! I'd love to see a monster jerkbait!!!
Thanks for sharing!

As soon as I saw that in your other thread I said to my wife it looks like one of my fishing lures. Very cool.

Thanks everyone! Yes it is boulder opal. It's not a doublet or triplet.. I don't know how to do that yet lol. It certainly does resemble something out of the old tackle box though
