3 Jointed Pikies

Hey Guys,

Just some new colors and things I've been messing around with for some fun. Curious how they will swim, I know how they will cast!

Enjoy Guys!

Thank you guys! You always make me smile with these comments!
Larry-Thanks A lot! I will try to get a video of its action. I just e texed them along with 15 other plugs. I will give you guys the feedback.

Pbadad- Thank you very much! I put much thought into the color on these, although I probably wont do this color again. The weight is in the nose and uper middle on the 3 peice. .8 in the nose and .5 in the upper middle body. On the 2 peice its .7 in the nose. Back is unweighted on all.

Slipknot- Thanks a lot! I was inspired by many builders, like larry but you where that also inspired me along the way.

just one small criticism, try some smaller screws for those lips, the heads look too big, otherwise, good luck with them
