I had feeling you'd probably made some like that. Got a couple more fish on it this AM . The plugs holding up great. Tried some experimenting with the eye for depth and action. Got it to dive to about 3 feet on a faster retreive but the fish would just follow it The place that I was gonna try trolling one of those is called The Graveyard as it's a long section of ledge along the shore. Real hard to fish . The way that plug worked with a skin may be what the DR ordered. Most other skin plugs I've used either go too deep and get hung up or or belly up a lot . Do you think your weighted on would work in a place like that ? The water goes fron 7 to 24 ft with some places shallower 4ft that you have to troll around. I fish these rocks from both shore and boat and there's a lot of good fish hangin by the humos you just can't reach them that well.
