New Artificial Shrimp Bait Mimics Real Shrimp
New Orleans inventor Frank W. Manning has devised hollow plastic shrimp lures that resemble real shrimp in appearance and smell. Each lure can be filled with seafood or dried shrimp meal and leaks fragrance to attract fish, with patents granted for the perforated, scent-emitting body. The product, not yet in production, is expected to reach markets soon as shrimp prices stay high.
