I think the only thing the helicopter lures catch is SUCKERS.....

I still buy them, Northern pike love them in bright orange. Pickeral will take them sometimes in orange or yellow. With a minow on them hooked in through mouth out through gills. (Can`t use live bait here)

[shrub]

you can still buy them? where

[keny]

if we are talking about the same lures I bought them at  S.I.R.  in winnipeg manitoba - perhaps you are talking about something else. Are they like a jig with a propellor at the back followed by  the hook.They are refered to by many names around here.I call them a spin prop jig.

There rubber and they skim across the water like a helicoptor...I think you have a different lure, prolly something that actually catches fish...

I used them in the Charles river by the Newton yacht club. Caught a 5lb. and a 2lb. largemouth and a calico bass.  Caught them all on the chartuse color lure.
