Reverse Type Plug
Hello all..
I have a question for the Atom experts..
I spun a reverse type plug this weekend, 6" long, AYC.. got the offset eye (1/2" down the plug or so)... Wondering about weighting em... Was thinking a slug in the ass and then maybe a smaller shot in front of the belly hook? But As I have fished em, I've never disected one... thoughts?
Also Color.. I lack an air brush, do it all from cans/brushes... anyone ever seen a color similar to the old atom orange for the reverse?
Thanks...

Pics soon.... much like the Grump (BM  ) I spin now and wait for warmer weather to paint... maybe this week, as I owe some plugs (Bliz and Slip...) |

CS did some up last winter. i would guess that any classic topwater colors would work. yellow/white being my favorite top water color. as you said, the classic root beer amber worked great originally. i would also guess that you want all the weight in the rear. they sit tail down in the water and give that walk the dog pencil popper hybrid action.

Papa Eben....
Sounds good, I'll save some blanks.. I'd like to try it mostly for wonderbread, and stuff like that.....
I actually dont mind cans; I am a big believer in simple color patters, ie. blue/white yellow red, etc... My silver and black rebels out fish yo-zuri's 2:1 in my experience; it's more action and shape than color.....
