I suspect it was a 10" bait. They can make a big fish seem smaller. I've got some baits up to 9" and have had some follows on the big baits that were excitement in themselves, just no attack yet.

Wow.....it's going to take a really tough heavy duty rod and reel setup to use baits that big.
Looks like it sure works though ....
Really nice fish
God Bless

Got the text back. It is a Hinkle as I thought. Hinkle Trout to be exact.
I can backlash toilet paper.

I thought it was some type of glide bait.

The Hinkle Glide Trout is 11 inches (I had guessed the lure was 10). It's 9.5 ounces. You can have one for a mere $175.  Update: In May, 2015, a lure like the one in the video went for $495 at auction!

Oliver and my buddy Mike. They fish together almost every day. And it's a Hinkle How do people have time to go fishing every day? I'm lucky to go once every month or two. Cool video for sure. Those guys know what they're doing.

That was a nice bass but I figured it would be bigger since the title said HUGE fish caught. I was expecting to see one that was 12+ but still it was a cool video watching the bass come up and eat the bait after several attempts at it.
