II was just messing around with a top water plug I made and decided to add a lip. Not the best paint job so I figured if I screw it up no big deal. On the first cast it got nailed on the pause not a giant just a 21 incher of course I forgot the camera this morning. It's 6 inches long center weighted just barely floats 1.75 oz.

Congratulations, I suspect the fish was not the only one caught.

Only caught 4 before slack tide. Packed it up and went home to cut grass and paint a few plugs.
