| I was thinking of trying something different just for fun this year, and will give these a try. What do you all think, will it work? They're normally used for saltwater fishing, but they look interesting and could have potential as for our Esox friends as well. Just a fun idea for something different.

| I'm far from an expert, but they don't look all that different from tube baits to me. Definitely worth some water time IMO.

Location: NE PA | A medussa looks like nothing that a muskie would eat in real life, yet they work. No reason these shouldnt catch fish.. |

| Howie Meyer has been attaching tubes to the back of crankbaits for years.
Can't imagine why he keeps doing it...

| those look great and should work. This one I made into a spinner a few years ago has one to its credit. works great at higher speeds.

Location: Land of the Musky | Most lakes the musky can't see what he is eating so as long as it pushes water its going to catch fish "sometimes"  |

| They should be sturdy enough, they are squid shaped lures usually used for saltwater fishing, I believe for species like barracuda and such, so they should be sturdy enough. I found them at AliExpress (see link below) and thought it'd be fun to try something different just for fun. They're not that expensive, and if they work it's great, if they don't work at least it was fun to try something different.

Location: oswego, il | The thing about saltwater baits is they are.made for speed. Lots of speed. I had the yo-zuri version of that crankbait and it took alot of speed to get it going.. Try it you never know. I bought another saltwater crankbait last year and at 5mph did nothing and it was jointed. They are made for much faster speeds than we are used to for muskies. |
