As the bass fishing industry steadily moves forward and grows, new advancements are constantly being revealed to help anglers better their techniques. New products and techniques are introduced year after year, only to get more complex, unique, and well... bizarre. It seems as if in the world of modern fishing, companies are coming up with some of the craziest tools, apparel, and lures on the market. We have come a long way from throwing hand carved wooden plugs to high resin, extremely durable lures. Some companies such as Savage Gear have started to come out with multiple lures that continuously push the boundaries of effectiveness, and uniqueness. For example, one of their most recent creations is an extremely lifelike topwater bat, rotating wings and all.

Another one of Savage Gears newest creations is the Fruck. Yes, you read that right... the Fruck. This crazy lure has the hollow body and markings of a frog, but has the head and legs of a baby duckling. This lure is a perfect example of how bizarre some lures in the lure industry are getting.
Countless other lures have been produced and are currently being released that are absolutely wacky. The Pompadour by Jackall is another great example of a flashy, in your face lure that has recently blown up as an oddity. Odd enough, the Pompadour actually produces some nice fish when used correctly. We know that bass will hit almost anything that moves when they're feeling hungry, but we also know that bass can be extremely finicky in other situations. The topic of odd lures such as the ones mentioned above can be a tough subject when it comes to reliability. The best thing that you can do as an angler is take a risk, purchase one, and test it for yourself. We can't sit and tell you that "this lure works and this one doesn't." That is up to you to find out which lures and techniques work best for you as an individual!
So maybe these wild lures work when put to them the test, or maybe they are just a experiment to see how crazy of a lure a company can successfully sell. We won't know for sure until we put them to the test and see how the fish feel about them! If you have any experience with either of these lures, let us know how they work for you. We'd love to hear your stories!
