[QUOTE="Master Carper, post: 3243591, member: 15527"] I know exactly which Cotton Cordell Big "O" you speak of. I used that exact bait and color for years, and it produced more 5+ pound bass than nearly all other lure and color combinations I used. As a matter of fact, an old pond I use to fish back in the mid to late 70's, I fished for hours without a single strike. Just before giving up and getting ready to leave, I had the bright idea of taking off the rear treble hook and attaching to the front ring, where the line is normally tied, and just created a wonderful top water lure. I made a good long cast across that pond, and watched that bait "wiggle" as it headed back to the bank. When it was about 15 to 20 feet away from the bank, there was a major explosion come over that lure! That was the first time I ever saw a bass literally jump a couple out of the water, and onto a bait. I reached up and thumbed the star on my bait cast reel slightly backwards to keep that bass from busting my line, and the fight was on. Maybe a good 10 minutes later, I landed my first 10 pound bass! 10 pounds 2 ounces to be exact. I caught 2 more bass on that backwards running lure, both around 3 to 4 pounds as best as I can remember. I released the big bass back into the pond and took the other 2 home for dinner. I used that same backwards running Cotton Cordell lure for a couple more years, and one day while fishing a small pond, a BIG BASS blew up on that lure and I couldn't stop it or turn it. My drag sang until the line popped! That was the last time I ever fished a lure like that. I have never heard of an "Undulator". Sounds like an interesting lure for sure. [/QUOTE]
