Rick Clunnâs hottest lure, the RC Freak is available in three versions that reach different dive depths. âMost deep divers are round bills that roll around an object or go over it on contact,â states Clunn. âThe Freakâs square bill catches on an object causing the line to stretch. When it releases, it creates an intense deflection that helps catch more fish.â Uniquely different, the Freak has a flat tail and a bill that comes straight out of the body, allowing it to be thrown further and subsequently dive deeper and stay in the strike zone longer. The extra long bill design reduces cranking resistance and minimizes snags, perfect for navigating the rough stump fields and around timber, rocks or any other cover. As the Freak bounces and moves through the water, its alluring rattle tempts fish to strike. $6.99
