If you're going to catch a fish, you need something on the end of your line, something that the fish you're after will consider tempting and tasty.

The Dardevle Spinner may be the world's most famous lure. It's been around for 100 years and must be responsible for millions of bites. Several of us here at 3LUXE remember borrowing the lure from our grandfathers. The lure's simple design belies its effectiveness.
