Going through some boxes I haven't seen in years and came across these.

Who here remembers them and can remember what they are called?

I remember them very well. Great concept behind them but it never took off.

I have no idea but they look like Norman jerk baits.

No, you filled them with water with the syringe. The amount of water you put in changed the buoyancy.

Just fill with water like H20 said. You could fish them as floaters with no water at all or add water to get the amount of rise you wanted, or get it just right to where it suspends perfectly. What I would usually do is fill the whole chamber with water to where it would sink to the bottom and fish them deep. Not to mention with it full of water you could launch it a mile even in the wind.

Yes they were made by Norman.

The worst part about them was when you would pull the plug on the belly you would get stuck almost every time by those sticky sharp Gamakatsu hooks. Only took a few sticks before I learned to use pliers to pull the plugs.

That might be how they got the idea for the new soft square bills, you can squeeze them and fill them up with water.
