Is soda can fishing actually effective?
While out fishing on a popular gulf coast pier, I've seen some people pull in fish left and right using only a crumpled soda can as a lure tied to a hook and line. Meanwhile, I was using normal bait and tackle and left empty-handed.
Is this soda can technique actually effective or is it just luck (combined with good fishing technique)?

Sure you can use anything as a bait really. Think of a crushed up can as a funky spinner (it's going to spin no matter what you do to it). It's shiny, flashy and moves erratically like an injured fish.
I have also seen lures made by folding bottle caps around a hook shank.
