It is that time of year where the fish are on skinny sand eels... I wanted to make a few slow sinking swimmers that will work at race point from my yak. here is what I came up with


3 very small belly leads on the thinner one and 4 on the slightly thicker & longer one... I made the lips from a forktails....

Will test them soon...
