So what is it supposed to mimic ?
Not a thing - at least not of this world. Very few lures mimic any prey animal either in appearance, action or both. The combination of each provoke attacks -
end of story. To suggest otherwise is making things up to
label the reason(s) fish attack lures such as hunger, anger, prey recognition,
matching the prey being eaten and any other thing we invent was the reason fish struck. Doesn't matter the type of lure fish were caught on or not caught on -
fish react, don't.or can't.
