Some swimmers, works in progess...

My goal is to make them lipless. The top one is my best effort so far. Starts on top and will swim down to about 2 feet. The second one started out lipless and I wasn't happy with it, so I put on a Lefty lip and it was transformed. It swims scary good... The third is totally different and is modeled after a swimmer a good friend of mine gave to me that he whittled out of a piece of cyprus about 30 years ago. A long skinny lip. It hovers in the current with just the tightest littlest wiggle, just like a bait fish doing no more than necessary to hold it's position.
