Dynamic Lures Sale!

  The community at Fishenchantment.com turned me on to Dynamic Lures sale of their HDXXL line. I first found these at the Bob Gerding Outdoor Hunting and Fishing Expo a couple of years ago, and I initially thought I was handed another gimmick bait reminiscent of the 3am infomercials for the outdoor networks. 
 

 As sometimes happens, I was proved wrong, "Honey I'm so sorry I'll never do it again" kind of wrong. The integrated rattle/weight chamber really was ingenious, I had the option to go silent near the surface, suspended with a higher pitch or diving with a deep thunk. Then I took out the BB's and did the same by just allowing water into the chamber, it didn't roll, track or otherwise require and tuning or modification. I didn't have to tie another bait when moving between target depths, and I was sold. 

And oh my God they're now 4.99 and I just spent $40 on a selection of them, 
"Honey I'm so sorry I won't do it again..." 
"Yes you will," 

Yes, I will.
