New Electronic Fishing Lure - PROANGLER12 - 07-20-2009
[
][fishin] I received my copy of Field & Stream magazine about two weeks ago. I came across an ad for an electronic lure, the "Alive Lure" and was interested, but skeptical. I am an avid fisherman and figured, what the heck, I'd give it a try. I ordered it and received it promptly. This past weekend, I went on a 3 day fishing trip to PA and decided to give this lure a shot. Well! to my amazement, the lure works! I caught two decent size sunfish and three bass (one largemouth and two smallies) of good size too. The Field & Stream link is here [url "http://www.fieldandstream.com/blogs/bass-fishing/2009/04/alive-lure-gimmick-or-not"]http://www.fieldandstream.com/...-lure-gimmick-or-not[/url]

Oh sorry....here it is again...
I think I had too many slashes in the web address.
I think you'll really enjoy this lure.

o ok thanks! so do you just let it sit on the water? or do you have to reel back in every once in a while?

I let it sit on the water and the wings vibrated and gave off these little ripples and then I also twitched it back and forth and then let it sit again. I didn't reel it. I think it's a good lure. It worked really well for me.

It makes noise like any topwater lure. Wouldn't mind getting one to add to my collection along side my Bart Simpson lure. [

It buzzes on the water, vibrates and creates ripples around the lure, like an insect. I'm telling you guys, it worked phenomenal. I caught 5 in one day on a lake that's very hard to fish.

Interesting! Thanks for the review I may have been skeptical as well if I would have seen the advertisement.
