Default It's O-fishal... trout season

Well my season has officially started. I've been here in Ashton for
a week+ fishing the lower HFork.

Before you get too green with envy, you ain't missing much. I
caught a 19" Bow as the first fish of the trip BUT that was before the
two days of gale kept me trailer bound. Those two were followed by
lovely warm, sunny days .... and NO bugs ( well lots of bugs but not
enough to get these spoiled brat fish rising ). Been real slow.

I guess the chuck-in-duck set is doing OK ( lots of drift boats at
least, but I never see fish caught ). I bought some Thingabobbers
and can feel the pull from the dark side .. but remain strong, thus far

trolling works too (ala Hot Shots and Fat Fish, off the
downstream end of a driftboat):

Is this a sculpin imitation of sorts?

....thanks. I appreciate the complement.

Here's a better one:

This one dives and wobbles like no lure I ever saw, swims side to side
6" either side of straight line. And down deep it does go.
It does need a name.
I'm open to suggestions.

I got the name, I think. "Rapalica" had some merit. But I finally
settled on the "Jolly Roger."

Here's a smaller one. I can toss this 50' if I want.
It dives well and it wiggles like a New Jersey hula hoop contest:
