Default Lure retriever?

Kind a like the Storm "Wild Shad?"

Hey Bob -- I've got an idea for a crankbait line. Remember the old "Flex
Plugs" (I think that's the right name) marketed by Burke. They were made of
tough but soft plastic and they worked like regular plugs but a bass would hold
on to them much longer than a regular hard plastic bait. My favorites were the
Big Dig (dug deep like a Hellbender) and a top water that looked rather like a
Heddon Chugger.

I've never figured out why Burke took those lures off the market. The only
place I can get them now is on eBay and they're getting harder to come by all
the time. I'd love to see someone with your creative skills take the idea and
come out with a similar line of lures. You'd probably figure out a way to make
them shake, rattle, and roll and catch even more fish than the Burke lures did.



Family, Friends, Fishing,
