1.25" Floating Micro Fuzzy Urchin Bait
Some of the best days in Appalachia ended with wet shoes, muddy britches, and socks covered in burrs.
You would spend the afternoon following a creek wherever it led—climbing over sycamore roots, squeezing through laurel, and wandering a little farther into the holler than you probably should have. By the time you made it home, Papaw would take one look at you and say:
“Ahh... I see you got into them burr bushes.”
That memory inspired The Sock Burr—a handcrafted, 1.25-inch floating micro fuzzy urchin bait designed for ultralight fishing in creeks, streams, rivers, ponds, and other small waters.
Its soft floating-plastisol body is surrounded by ultra-fine synthetic fibers that breathe, pulse, shimmer, and quiver with the slightest movement. Even when the bait is barely moving, the fibers continue reacting to the current and creating a living profile that traditional soft plastics cannot match.
Whether fish mistake it for a tiny aquatic insect, drifting invertebrate, emerging larva, or simply something alive and worth tasting, The Sock Burr gives pressured fish a presentation they rarely see.
The Sock Burr is designed to work with #10 and #12 micro jig heads. Let it drift naturally through current seams, suspend it beneath a small float, crawl it slowly across the bottom, or hold it nearly motionless and allow the floating body and living fibers to do the work.
Length: 1.25 inches
Body Material: Floating plastisol
Profile: Micro fuzzy urchin bait

The Sock Burr is built for bluegill, redbreast sunfish, pumpkinseed, green sunfish, creek chubs, rock bass, trout, crappie, warmouth, perch, smallmouth bass, largemouth bass, and just about anything else willing to investigate a tiny meal.
Do not overwork it. A slow drift, gentle shake, or long pause allows the floating body to hold a natural posture while the fibers move independently around it. Sometimes the less you do, the more alive it looks.
Every Sock Burr is individually assembled by hand. Slight differences in fiber length and placement are part of what makes each bait unique.
Some things stick with you long after you leave the creek.
Handcrafted by Creek Life Lure Co. in Appalachia.
