As u know Matt I been home recovering and out of work so I make the best of time. Did more slim needles slow sinks and decided to turn 20 ayc blanks for next years Pikes. I will be doing them with a single 5/0 hook and will be testing prototypes with alternative weight compensation. I also plan to try 2 different lips for an action I prefer in deep divers. I have 2 ready to swim today.

Not sure what to call these, kind of like a bottle darter... Been messing around with versions of these for the past couple of seasons.

I'd call it a bottle darter. The late Bob Hahn made a version close to that.

No boat, back in the suds.
