Acme Thunderbolt - addicted2fishin - 01-31-2014
This appears to be a pretty basic spoon type lure. I occurred a couple up on a Kmart clearance years ago. Since then I have bought countless replacement ones in different patterns. I've never seen any lure more consistently catch trout than this does. I've used it trolling at various speeds, spincasting, etc. I've caught all from very large to very small. The only problem is it seems to be getting harder and harder to find in stores.

UPDATE: Unfortunately it appears this gem has been out of production for a while now and is all but impossible to find anymore. There are a couple of them that show up on eBay or Amazon once in a while, but they may as well have been made of gold.
By far the most consistent trout catching lure I've ever used. Now if Acme would start producing them again....
