Trashed plug....

I knocked this guy out real fast before I headed out to the Adirondack Mountians for vacation. Chit wood, didn't bother sealing it, screwed up the thru wire so the belly hook is screwed in, etc... The pike loved it!
It's 4 1/2" long, 1 1/4" deep and 5/8" wide. Belly weight at the thickest part of the plug. weighs 1.5 ounces.

Yeah, It's neat to see. What's was so awesome, was that the more beat it got, the more it got hit. The MoJo was working on this little guy. I've had that happen fly fishing before, to the point that all that was left was the body of the fly with a few strands of bucktail or a feather or two. It's the first time it's happend with with a plug for me. Very Cool!!!

Got to make a few more of these guys and try them in the salt. It looks like it might be a nice small bunker profile.
