John, something along the lines of the Gibbs canal special (size/weight) would be cool. Caught TONS of good fish over the years on that pencil. Personally, I like a pencil to sit ass down and nose up in the water. I have never been a fan of pencils that work like a spook. I figure you buy a spook to work like a spook, not a pencil. For me, it needs to just barely float or even sink very slightly at rest. Just my personal findings. I'm sure you'll do them up right. Let me know when the bigger guys are ready for testing.  |

I used one of the "older" habs pencils and the head sat just below the surface and when you popped the lure it had crazy dancing action. I was able to cast into the teeth of the wind...one hell of a lure!
please let me know if you need a tester  |
