Today I went detecting at the old gold mining camps. I found this rifle round that appears to have been modified into a fishing lure. It's hammered to have a curve and flat. It looks like at one time it was painted white on one side and red on the other. Has anyone ever seen anything like this ? And I found this arrowhead. A couple of wheats and that's it.

Congrats.If its cool to you Its cool.Good luck with your hunting at that spot.
 

I've never seen one. Does it have a hook? Cool find is right! H Digs!
 

Very cool folk art lure. Anything flashy and shiny can be used to catch fish.
 

I'm considering restoring it and trying it out for myself.
 

Sure appears to be a homemade lure. Paint it up, add a treble hook and go catch a state record bass with it! HH
