[quote wiperhunter2]That sounds logical but the shape seems odd to me, I wonder what the fish think they are[:/].[/quote]
Just a thought: odd to an angler is not a problem for fish biting something that resembles nothing in nature.
Fish don't/ can't think and I won't pretend to know otherwise.
Fish react to the fast quiver of the vibrating legs like they react to hundreds of other lure designs that simulate nothing.
Take those lures I gave you that caught fish. Did you wonder what they represented to a fish while you caught it? It didn't matter because the the fish struck. I was skeptical about a skirted jig with pork trailer first time I tried it. Once it caught a bass, I was hooked along with the fish and realized the combination worked only because of a lure action that provoked that fish to strike.
Lures provoke, some far better than others.
There is no such thing as a fake bait. The adjective artificial suggests the lure isn't real, which of course it is. If it wasn't real it would be imaginary, a figment of our imagination.
Here's another:
Realistic to who or what? of what?
Just more nonsense to sell lures.
