Jointed lures

First try at some jointed plugs using Numskulls version as a somewhat guide. Actually they swim pretty good. I was astonished at the action on the jointed ones.All three are the same length but look different hanging on the lampshade. Made using cypress as I can't locate any AYC in Florida. Have a long way to go painting scales

Nice job - the fish will not even notice no scales! I gave up scales on plugs that I intend to fish hard.

How'd I miss that? Thanks George. Tagger's my seeing eye plug guy...
