Hi Guys,

Took my old man up musky fishing and he had a run in with the trolling motor on his back swing of a cast. Before I had a chance to remind him to check the line and leader, he had launched one of my gliders about 100 yards into the middle of the lake. Anyways, I was wondering if I could get some help on the colour pattern so I can attempt to replace it with something similar (it was producing and was the only one I had). I found this picture while searching other posts and the glider in the bottom right looks to be the same colour scheme.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Matty

That looks like a Tenesse shad color. BG

It may not be the Phantom you're looking for, but Smokey's Musky Shop on Pewaukee Lake carries a custom pattern John calls the "Pewaukee Bluegill" in the Musky Magic Slidin' Shad like the Firetiger one in the bottom center of that photo, as well as the Slippery Slider, which is a squirrely version of a lure that looks very similar to the orange with black dots in your photo. . . If I find time in the next day or two I'll post a pic of mine so you can compare. Sorry to hear of your loss.

That color to me looks like a bullhead color. What type of glider were you using? I could maybe find it on the internet if you haven't found it already

Thanks for your help so far everyone. I am not sure what type of glider it was, but it had flat sides, not round ones. It was also 3 hooks, not 2 likethe one in the picture. I purchased a couple hundred lures at the same time off a guy and I had not had time to learn them all.

Thanks again, I appreciate your assistance.

I don't know the actual name or color of your lure. But a similar lure is a Magic Maker in a Tennessee Shad pattern. Here is a link:
