likes the bottom right one. lokks like the yo-zuri banana boat - which is good but too small.
did you carve it, or turn it off center.

darter with the lip is interesting too.

Freak,, I'm really liking the metal lip darter,, I been thinking of that or the rubber tool handle dip stuff as a protector for the frontal nudity problem all darters seem to have.. Take a good current like the ditch ripping,, and if your darter dosen't roll out it digs and starts working the bottom wich is great but comes back to you all chipped in the front 1st cast like its a year old .. no bs ,, like the freak "bottom banger" effect you got on that,, other shapes fishy too .

I think I have read that musso experimented with a metal piece for the leading edge on his wood darters.fOR that reason

that bottom right is hand carved balsa wood. i like that stuff because it's easy to cut/sand and pretty easy to weight. pretty tough too when you seal it with clear.

i got that darter idea from you tagger.
i was looking at one of your saweet :drool: darters at plugfest with a really messed up chin :tooth: :think: not sure how it swims yet but it's a start?
