MONSTER Pikie

I had a large diameter piece of pine sitting around and I was thinking what I should do with it. I decided i'm going to try my hand at a Giant Pikie. Here it is compared to a MAC pikie and a Winch Jointed Pikie that I bought for my plug building buddy a year ago. My only regret is sand too much of a slope on the head, but what the hell! It's also going to be my first attempt at a homemade lip, since a Pikie 3 will probably not get this monster swimming.

Suggestions?

Good call. Thank you!

I forgot to mention that the Pikie is 11" and I'm thinking of making it jointed.

you could also consider making it a flaptail with the way the nose curve came out. Just an option.
