CUTTLEFISH

THE CUTTLEFISH

This lure can be rigged many different ways. In fact it is always being continually developed. But one thing is for sure it is the one lure that I fish with first for big flounder. I also fish it for the biggest nastiest hits you can get from flounder. They must hate squid.

This lure came about from the work with the Original Skirt Forward Slide Pounder. That lure was the first attempt by Flounder Pounder to imitate the squid that the flounder were spitting up. We set out to develop a squid that was interchangeable in its design. The Cuttlefish is it. It can be rigged to slide weighted or un-weighted. Or with the Original Pounder Head.

Works great as a drift lure behind the Slidin' Walkers un-weighted. But you can also change the skirt colors as well and that is a plus in off color waters. And now it features the EYE-DEAL RATTLING 3-D EYES!

Here is the way it will rig using the Original Pounder Head. The steps are about the same except that you must latch the hook onto the folded back eye of the Original Pounder Head. I like to use #2 treble hooks when I use the skirts on these lures. CUTTLEFISH bodies are pinned so you wont tear them up when you rig or unrig them.

If you drift for flounder, fluke or some other flatfish here is the CUTTLEFISH rigged without weight behind a SLIDIN' WALKER. Big Joe flipped the eyes to the front on this CUTTLEFISH. You can do a lot of things with the RATTLING 3-D EYED CUTTLEFISH!

Here is the way you can rig the CUTTLEFISH on the Slide. You simply insert the eye into the body, slide in the head, push the skirt onto the treble hook. Slide the line into the head and thru the eye and body. Tie it to your hook and pull the line so that the hook slips all the way into the bait.

Here are all the components on the line and ready to be assembled to look like the finished lure on the right.
