I used E-tex because i have some left over from my pre sspraying days, but i blew up my air compressor.. threw out a bearing or something.. so i couldnt spray. man what a pain in the butt brushing that stuff on after you are used to spraying.

I went down to a ripping outflow yesterday to swim one in some moving water. In calm water it came in right on top with a big v-wake like a motor boat.. in the rip it came in about 4 inches under and still made a V-wake like a submarine.. Didnt pop out at all and the action is all wiggle, no rolling.

I really like this red cedar for swimmers, its nasty stuff to turn, but its so bouyant.. perfect for plugs you want to stay on the surface.

Sorry if I have a eagle eye.
Too bad bout the Kompressor.Welcome to the crap world of epoxy.
Instead of Val oil try heating a ready to prime blank up 10 mins at 200. an coat wit epoxy.pour in the holes an use a pipe cleaner to service the insides.Keep applyin til it don't soak no more.wipe off the excess an let dry then prime an paint.Makes a nearly indestructo plug.
I really like red cedar also for swimability.u can always weight to suit.
its soft so u gotta whatch what ur doin.I hurd basswood is very nice i got a good chunk I have to decide what to do wit it. good to see u goin full bore.Keep up the good work.Call me if u want me to send u my smilin bill molds.

NIB i'll call y ain a bit...

as for eyes, i wont pu t them in now if i only use one hook on the belly as the plug will roll more- my dannies with two hooks wiggle like a bastid, so the eyes are not distracting and like you say, make a target- thats also why i put the plack dots behind the eyes..
