What kind of characters are these? Ed Lepore began making them 15 years ago. Used for salt water fishing to catch striped bass and bluefish, the fish can sometimes chew these guys up but otherwise they should last you a lengthy amount of time. Sitting on your desk or on your bookshelf or your wall they will last even longer. Pretty soon I am going to have a nice little collection of lures, flies and jigs, not that I know what those terms really mean. All I know is I like their looks; they entertain me and make me laugh. If you think about it, hours of fishing on your own at sea or even with a silent buddy you need a lure that makes you crack up, then imagine if the weather is bad as well. You need a friend in your jig, you gotta have heart! A companion? Do you think fishermen have conversations with their lures? Perhaps even ventriloquism? Ahoy Matey! Ahoy sand eel buddy! Do fish speak in bubble talk? Oh no, I think I just talked myself into removing fish from my diet...crap down to veggies alone. Shit I think these flies are brainwashing me...
