That actually is the name Ray gave to this lureLOL It was made to simulate the Pregnant Galaxias found in Windamere dam which Ray and Paul Knellor would polerise the Yellowbelly along the weedbeds then throw these things at them to be engulfed. Paul is not sure if any made it into shops but they worked well for them. Obviously a lure made to catch fish instead of fisherman as to look at it in your hand it does look like a drab poo brown colour lure but in the flashlight, and the same would be the sunlight in the water the undercoat of irridesant purple sparkles shine out.
 
80mm from bum to bib tip.

Hey Blake, you are right in that Ray called a drab brown colour "Shitstick" but this lure was also referred to as the Shit Stick, cheers Paul.
