NIKEEEE

My first again theres so meny plugs to build after 6 years Im still doing FIRST, an have more on my list to do. anyways here it is 6.1/2 long, weight in the tail, havent weight it yet. Ive seen a lot of them an had a hard time doing the HEAD SECTION. like my DOTS just starting to get them down also, after looking at another plug I saw I put them upside down. I took it swimming the outher day, swam pretty good, I even smashed the lip section on bottom, shallow water. so now Ill top coat it, an beat the hell out of it next season. this will be my 1. an only to hard to carve all the angles
that it
GOOD LUCK GOOD PLUGGIN
