Field Notes

This is a collectible surface-style musky bait with fixed wings and a metal tail, suited to slow casting presentations over shallow water. It would be used to create commotion and draw strikes from pike and musky, especially when fish are active near the surface.

Pros

  • Rare collectible Macatawa bait
  • Large profile for pike and musky
  • Surface commotion can trigger aggressive strikes

Cons

  • Very expensive collector piece
  • Likely not intended for hard everyday use
  • Color name is uncertain
