Dan Gapen, Sr. spent 8 years tying, testing and retying this NEW lure.

It works on any gamefish which, feed on crawfish. Nothing attracts and

entices fish to strike better than natural deerhair and feathers.

Combined these features with the patented, SNAG-FREE wedge-head of this lures relative, the

UGLY BUG jig, and you’ve created a monster fish catcher.

Smallmouth bass fight over the “Real” crawfish jig, brook trout devour it, walleye can’t resist

it, and largemouth relish it. There isn’t a gamefish which can’t be caught on it; this includes

SALTWATER species such as bonefish, weakfish, snapper, spots and all the others which prowl

your favorite flat.

WORKING THE “REAL” CRAWFISH JIG:

Crawfish are a bottom dwelling critter. Any imitator must be worked down in the rocks

where crawfish live. Rocks provide protection and a place of ambush for

food and home for this bottom creature. The “Real” crawfish jig, due to

its rock walking snagless head, allows the angler a chance to imitate the

crawfish in looks and action.

Work the “Real” crawfish jig

with the current in rivers. Such

action best imitates the natural

action taken by crawfish as current

sweeps them downstream. If

your retrieve is upstream, do so in as slow of an action

as possible. This will keep the jig in contact with bottom

70% of the time. When working rocky lake reefs,

try working the “Real” crawfish jig from the deep into

the shallow areas. This best represents the actions

Unbelievably

“HOT”

LuRE

!

ANGLERS - IF YOU’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THAT ONE-IN-A-MILLION

LURE - GAPEN’S NOW GIVES YOU THE OPPORTUNITY TO BUY ONE!

The Fish Fry was birthed in 2008 when The Ol’ Man cut a 2” Flub Dub in half,

reshaped and rerigged it to immitate a huge school of newly hatched crappie fry that the

bass and walleye were feeding on, in a clear backwater bay in the lake he was fishing on.

Up until then, the only lure he’d been successful on was a tan-colored freshwater

shrimp.

Reaction of the walleye and bass, in 8’ of crystal-clear water, on the newly cut down

1” crankbait were easily tracked. The first cast with the new designed Fish

Fry produced a near 2 lb. walleye and nearly every

cast thereafter produced a fish to follow. Dan had

come upon a new “HOT” bait. Now it was back to

the workshop to produce a prototype.

That was the beginning and within a year the

new creation was filling stringers of panfish and

limits of gamefish!
