Cool looking plug :happy: Does it stay on top, or dig?

Jig man I dont know yet.. When it gets above freezing up here I'll take it down to the pier and test swim it. Its aYC and its got a big slug of lead in its belly. I think its gonna dig deep. or at least I hope

Excellent! thats nice for a first plug!!!! Sweet paint. Did you paint it with canned paints?

Nebe 01-08-2004 06:03 PM

Rocketman, Unfortunately its not my fist plug.. just my first swimmer.. I've been making poppers and other things that dont have metal lips.
Its painted with createx airbrush paints and clear-coated with envirotex.

I do some that are similar to that one. A small slug of lead and they have a killer action on top. Not so good subsurface. If it does not have the subsurface action you are after, reduce the lead and use it on top.

Are those eyes PLASTIC!? :doh:

Nebe 01-10-2004 06:50 PM

Toonoc, generous me gave all the glass ones away:D

Jig Man- I test swam it today and it swam great!!! I'm very happy:happy:
It swam about a foot under and had a tight wiggle to it. that long tail gave it an almost eel like wiggle. Now I gotta make 40 more:smash:
