Not to sound like I am knocking your lure, because I am not, I am impressed, and I am sure the right color in the right conditions, it would work very well. Part of why I am so sure is until a stupidity caused accident left a tackle box of mine in deeper water than I was near able to retrieve it from, I had some of my father's tackle with mine, mostly made up of lures from as early/old as maybe the mid 30's, but most were more like 40's to late 50's, maybe a little early 60's.View attachment 2013140Hi there i too have a fishing lure hobby. This is one of my creepers i just started making. I hand carved this first lure out of pine and it worked great. I then made a two molds and now replicate them out of a floating resin airbrush them add my hardware and clear coat them.What do yous think of it? Great for pike ,bass and musky i have two sizes. Looking for a name for these if anyone has any ideas. Thx Nice pipes

Anyway, there were two that were basically low tech, old fashioned looking rather than star trekie looking versions of the very same thing, and they worked well. I am sure that one was a South Bend, though possibly both were. All were in their original boxes but it's been enough years now that I do know the box colors were very different, I can't begin to make out a name for the second.
Anyway, a tried and true very old basic design that looks like it's been well refined. I like it.
