Has anyone fished the New okie drifters made in Oregon by Robolize? They come in 5 colors. And they are 3D printed from the original okie molds I heard 🤔

I was introduced to the Okie Drifter in the 8th grade fishing for Ninilchik River kings in 1976. Back then, the cookie cutter hen was 22-24 pounds... and the cookie cutter buck was 25-27 pounds. Every weekend opener, someone in our posse would land one over 30 pounds. The good ol'days. Nowadays the cookie cutter adult king on the Ninilchik River is probably less than 12 pounds.
Many of those fish succumbed to the venerable Okie... the lion's share of them taken on the magnum version in fluorescent flame and a piece of chartreuse GloBug yarn.

OK... I caught my first steelhead in Alaska on the Ninilckik River as a teenager... on an Okie Drifter. Got bullied into keeping the big wild downrunner hen by the other guys on the bank fishin' Butch's Hole.
Sin fish of a lifetime, no doubt.

"The Okie Drifter is the most productive steelhead lure EVER devised.
Okies were first used to float salmon eggs, however fishermen soon learned that the Okie was just as effective WITHOUT eggs.
Soon fishermen were buying Okies and catching steelhead in RECORD numbers"
