I too purchased a number of the sinking distressed Pike...it is the only lure that has ever but two 40 plus fish in my boat in only four casts.. and on the heavily pressed waters, they work even better, but they are not built to last...in fact..most of them can not even hold up to a whole day of fishing...and they most certainly can not take the rocks in Canada... just another good idea...with poor execution....and another example of buyer beware....
