Great looking plug Mike.

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. ~John Buchan

Sit tight, next up will be the $1,000 danny, then the $666 junior swimmer.

Swam very good. I would put it in the category of a bomber long a with regard to its depth (2-3') and action. Was going to try a pikie 3 lip, but the lefty 2 did the trick. Even with the relatively heavy overall weight(3.5 oz), it popped up to the surface like a cork when I paused the retrieve, so its quite bouyant for a thin, heavy plug.

Good stuff Mike. But the price usually doesn't get better as you always want another gizmo, tool, etc...

Impressive start, Mike. Very impressive. The thought and fishing knowledge that went into that plug stands right out. It will pay you back, soon enough.
