I
had the pleasure of experimenting with Ambush Lures at the Noah Testing
Grounds and the Bass voted Ambush Lures a KEEPER in a big way. No
recount needed for this vote! The water had cooled down and the bass
were filling up for winter. They loved the Ambush!
From the picture
you can see Ambush Lures are unique in design and in their selection on
hooks is unheard of in the industry. The traditional two triple hooks
worked just as expected. I used the single hook on top,
just to
test the hooking ability of this arrangement and I don't think
I missed a bass. I was impressed and will plan on using this arrangement
in my travels to lakes with lots of grass. This arrangement will hang up
less and give you more actual fishing time. A real plus in tournaments.
Ambush
Lures, a division of FISH BWARE INC., a Missouri corporation, was
formed on May 2, 1996. Fish Bware Inc.'s goal is to design, develop,
and distribute innovative fishing tackle
to the fishing industry. Ambush
Lures uses new technologies, such as ultrasonic, vibration, and
computational fluid dynamic analysis, in the design of it's lures, which
make them both superior and unique
relative to competing products. The company
is lead by four entrepreneurs that have worked to create truly
innovative fishing tackle in all segments
of the fishing industry.
Brett Ware and
Ryan Gruhn drive product design and development, while Todd
Gray and Tim Tadlock are responsible for marketing efforts.
Ambush lures are
designed to "Stimulate positive responses from fish."
says Brett Ware. We have long known fish
respond to color, shape, sound,
and scent. I've proven time and time again scent, sound, and color
can make a tremendous difference in how fish respond to lures in
the hawg troughs I use across the
country. Ambush has taken these known responses
and packaged them together in a fish catching package. The Strip
Pit bass and perch proved Ambush Lures have something we all need
in our tackle boxes.
According
to Ware "The artificial lure's color and shape are generally
assumed to be the main reason fish
respond to artificial lures due to fish
being visual predators, however the scent and vibration of the
artificial lure are the primary reasons
why artificial lures get positive
responses from fish and are more scientific in nature. The trigger
that Ambush Lures has primarily focused on for artificial lure
differentiation is vibration. We believe
that the vibration of an artificial
lure is the dominating trigger that feeding fish respond to due
to their two primary sensory systems, which is composed of a lateral
line and an auditory hearing system. By
using ultrasonic and vibration diagnostics,
Ambush Lures has isolated the frequency and amplitude levels
that attract various fish." Ambush Lures has invented a diagnostic
response system within an artificial lure by using a combination
of fluid mechanics and internal fluid flow within the artificial
lure to create a natural fish response that
is encoded by the response
systems within fish. When the water passes through the internal
hole, both turbulence and laminar flow is created by the lure
and pressure waves are generated that
emits similar ultrasonic signals of
that of a real fish. Ambush Lures manipulates the mass flow rate of
the water passing through the internal
cavity by varying the cross sectional
area of the cavity, which increases or decreases the velocity
of the water. In murky water conditions,
the fluid mechanics is used to excite
immersed bodies within cavities that produce additional pressure
waves and higher ultrasonic sound waves.
These additional sound waves act
as homing signals to aquatic sonar, which is critical in non-refractive
water conditions. This "ringing" of ultrasonic sound
waves manipulated using internal fluid
mechanics truly differentiates the
lures created by Ambush Lures. In addition, the lures have the
capability to emit scent by using scent
carriers within the internal hole.
By designing a lure in a fashion so it produces the desired frequency
levels and emits a scent, Ambush Lures has created the ultimate
crankbait and thus increasing the sportsmen's chances for success."
Like I said, the
Strip Pit bass and perch proved Ambush Lures have something
