Reading the rare fishing lure thread I was thinking that I had one of these hot lips Express lures that was mentioned so often. But after looking at pictures I don't think that's what I have.

What is this? No markings at all. I got it from a full Tackle Box I purchased it a garage sale. Everything else in The Tackle Box was from the late '80s to early 90s so I assume this is in that time frame.

Yea that's it. I'm interested in throwing this one it's definitely different than anything I've seen before.

Thanks Doc.

That unique lip is designed to allow the lure to work through thicker brush. I caught some good ones on it back in the day.

It is a big fish bait; but with those original hooks most big bass will throw it. Change them out for KVD's

I remember seeing them in outdoor magazines, just couldn't remember what they called them. I think they were pretty popular in their day.
