New Lures from Heddon and YUM

Heddon Chug’n Spook

The Chug’n Spook topwater lure features a precisely designed convex face that doesn’t affect the walk-the-dog retrieve, so it’s chugging and spitting while walking the dog. Add in a big One Knocker rattle and we’re talking mega-attraction radius. The Chug’n Spook’s open mouth spits loads of water and creates enormous surface action while the One Knocker rattle bangs on the door with every twitch. Despite the addition of the spitting mouth, the Chug’n Spook still walks-the-dog with ease, creating that hypnotizing action that predator fish can’t resist.

The Chug’n Spook comes in both freshwater and saltwater versions so bass fishermen and those going after inshore beasts like giant redfish and stripers have one that’s perfect for the situation. The difference is in the hooks. The saltwater version features super-strong #1 2X Saltwater Hooks that resist rust and stand up to the punishment big and toothy brutes dish out. The freshwater versions feature tough #2 XCalibur Tx3 hooks intended to stay sharp for bass after bass.

The YUMphibians

Soft-plastic creature baits need to blend tremendous water disturbance for attraction, yet present the appearance of being an easy meal. The new YUMphibian by YUM Soft Plastics captures both of these traits. The supple body is soft enough to undulate and swim but durable enough to catch several fish without tearing, and the multiple appendages kick out more water displacement and disturbance than any other creature bait. With two small swimming arms at the top, a pair of longer curl tails at the end and two big “flappers” at the midpoint, this critter never stops moving…or catching fish.
