Manta18's post finally reminded me to make this post.
A buddy of mine picked this up at a garage sale for $3 and gave it to me. I slapped some rattle can on it just for fun. Haven't used it much, no muskies that I can account for, but bass or pike do blow it up using it like a pull bait. Did some research and I'll link some stuff below for some short reads. But what I wanna know is do any of you have any personal accounts using it? I've seen 1 similar used before as a flasher trolling lake trout on TV. Any idea why Eppinger or anybody for that matter isn't making this basic design concept? Also thinking of feathering the treble,thoughts there?

Jay, try a split tail trailer on rear hook. Johnson silver minnow are known to be good producers around the opener when things are tough. In SE WI. Here, sometimes a simple 2/5 oz Cleo produces.

I know several guys fishing Lake Michigan tie pillow feathers on trebles of cast masters;)

Can go get some cheap marabou feathers at a craft store. I would trim a couple big ones in half and just tie the top half to the treble.
