BM Junior copy put to the test

I finished this one up about 1 week ago and decided to take my son out and test drive a bunch of plugs, including this one. It comes in about 6-12" below the surface although I couldn't get a real long cast(maybe it will get deeper on a longer cast) given the ice cover in my test pond.

Anyways, I snagged it on the ice well out from shore and had to break the line, thus losing the plug. This afternoon I took my son, 100' of 1/4" yellow rope and a square shovel out to the crime scene and....I got the sucker back.. Anyways, I hope I'm not taking too long with this, but the plug was fully intact, no waterlogging or damage done after sitting in the water for 4 days. It does have a bit of a marble swirl going on the epoxy, but otherwise fine and didn't gain any weight. I'll have one on display at plugfest this weekend, although I won't be there personally.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind
