Can you identify/find this lure for me?

I was watching River Monsters the other day and the host was fishing in some lily pads using a lure that resembled a cross between a soft weedless frog and a jitterbug.
Does anyone know where to get this lure (or something similar)? He was fishing in Japan so I don't even know if it's available in Canada.
I attached a sketch because I know my description is vague.

I have no idea what the lure is, looks like a Heddon invention. Does it wobble or is it a prop on the back? Looks like it would be killer for pike/bass in the junk.

Nice sketch/rendering... Curious what program you drew it in?

I wobbles like a jitter bug. I was thinking the same thing about the pike/bass and the slop. The River Monster guy got a catfish on it.

I drew the sketch in Adobe Photoshop with a Wacom tablet.

I'll look into the Heddon angle.
THANKS!
 
I may be wrong, but I think he was using a Heddon Crazy Crawler.

I checked out the Crazy Crawler. It's similar but not quite the same. The body on what I'm looking for looked like a soft plastic similar to many frog-style baits.
There's also only one or two hooks that curl up along the body of the bait, making it weedless.
Thanks for the guess though.

The search continues...
