Well i think its cool.

Today I went detecting at the old gold mining camps. I found this rifle round that appears to have been modified into a fishing lure. It's hammered to have a curve and flat. It looks like at one time it was painted white on one side and red on the other. Has anyone ever seen anything like this ? And I found this arrowhead. A couple of wheats and that's it.

I've never seen one. Does it have a hook? Cool find is right! H Digs!

No hook. I think it rusted off.

Very cool folk art lure. Anything flashy and shiny can be used to catch fish.

Thats cool..wonder if the person ever cought any fish with it...

I'm considering restoring it and trying it out for myself.

Sure appears to be a homemade lure. Paint it up, add a treble hook and go catch a state record bass with it! HH
