Location: Bowling Green, KY | I just bought a jerkbait off ebay called a tremor for $2.75. It is roughly suick
shaped and has a heart shaped tail fin, and looked like in the picture the front
hook hangers might be on the sides of the bait though I'm not sure. The description said the manufacture was Mann's but I've never heard of Mann's bait
company making a musky jerkbait. It has the word TREMOR printed on the bait.
Does any one besides trueglide make a bait called the tremor or could this be a
possible lucky score? |

| Wow, that is kind of an oldie. They used to be made by Musky Monarch Tackle (I believe ) out of Elcho, Wi. Goerkes Corner (at 45 and K) used to sell their stuff. They roll and flash. Contrasting colors. Steve |

Location: Bowling Green, KY | I just won and paid for it this morning so I don't actually have it in hand to take
a picture of it. I could post the ebay item number so you could look at the pictures
there if that would help. It says its never been used. It is black on the back and
white on the bottom.

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | Yep, I have a couple. Good lures, and Mr. Jonesi has it right. I lived for 9 years two doors down from Goerkes Corner which was Nitke's Amoco before Gary bought the place. I suppose Mr. Jonesi was familiar with that place because of the Corner Tap.... |

Location: Bowling Green, KY | It came in today, definitely not a trueglide but neat none-the-less. It does have
hooks on the sides, will float with either the top or the bottom up and has two
small eyes recessed in the front like little headlights. Pretty cool.

Location: Racine, Wi | I got my first Okauchee Lake musky on one of those back in my younger days (I suppose I'm not all that old, but it was a while ago.) Very cool concept and action on that bait, but the middle two hooks get hung up a bit. Change them out for some short shank hooks to help eliminate that issue.
Definitely get it wet though. Those things are pretty cool. |

Location: Grand Rapids, MI | Yep, cool for sure and nothing like it that I've ever seen. I have a black/orange one collecting dust somewhere that I've had around for 20 some years.

Location: Racine, Wi | Interesting. Looks like they updated the hook placement in the middle. I may have to sling one of those baits again this year. I think I still have the 2 I got when I was younger. They were on my mega list when I was 14 and got my collection under way. Still think it is a cool bait. I would imagine they would work on some pressured waters down this way. hmmmm  |
