NewHips Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 I've been racking my brain to figure out the name & manufacturer of this lure.I'm sure had a treble hook on the back end, hard plastic and a S curved body. I thought it was a Rapala injured minnow?Help !!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopheraaron Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Hmm, doesn't look like a rapala paint job to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solopaddler Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 That's a Rapala Minnow Spoon. They came in both a single hook weedless version and yours which had a treble. I've still got a bunch of the weedless ones and use them all the time. Great lures! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Yup....they work well. I only have the treble models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It got most of my big fish all week. Thanks........I'm sure that is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an aside I always tip my weedless spoons as well when fishing for pike. For future trips try these oversized salt water pork ripple tails. They're super tough and last forever and they add scent and texture that the fish seem to love. The white and red colors are deadly. http://www.unclejosh.com/P/STUBENWORMSTRIP/771 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fang Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 Still guys selling that body with trebles and weed less on eBay See them once in a while, not too often though. They don't call them rapalas so somebody must be copying the original out of china. I've got several big gold weed less ones still. Great pike lure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bare foot wader Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 great lure, tipped with a pork lizard one of my favourite lures for pike....I have a personal stash, still new in the box, I've even repainted my old ones, they are harder to find these days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted January 21, 2014 Report Share Posted January 21, 2014 All you need for big snakes are Johnson Silver minnows with a big Kalins 5in grub on the back (Super glue it ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
