For the past few years we have watched in amazement at the number of look-alike weedless lures that have come to to the market. They are all variations on the same theme ? separate lead heads, which attach to soft plastic bodies, rigged with weedless hooks. The thinking behind this, is that if the body is lost or damaged, it can be easily (or more often not so easily!) replaced? (Read more?)
In practice, however, as any lure or boat fisherman knows, nine times out of ten, if you snag the lure you lose the lot! Why over complicate it then? We already have a superb, proven ‘fish-catcher’ in the original Skad Lures so why not just make a weedless version of that? So that?s what we did!
Aimed squarely at the lure and boat fisherman and using the same tried and tested tail design as the original Skad lure. No more ‘fiddling in the dark’ with wet hands to change the body? no more torn plastic bodies before you have even started fishing!
?Just tie it on and go fishing!
