I don't know, but maybe you can sell advertising space on them and cast them over crowded beaches this summer.

Well, they say, give them what they have never seen before. You will never know if it works until you try it. So good luck. I like it, but I'm not a fish.

If anyone could come up with a completely new plug, never seen by

human eye, it should be named after you Tagger-- "The Tagster" You

are truly the "jack of all plugs and meister of all, including the meister of

hard work and generosity,

Good looking plug and idea. How does it swim, does it have a tendancy to spin?

low & slow 37

My favirote fresh water bass lure spring and nights is a spinnerbait . I found I could catch fish just changing the blade ,by changing the vibration pattern in the water . I'd throw my favirote black spinnerbait at night with a 5 colorado . Slow rolling it you could feel the blade chug , chug ,chug, .. I'd be catching nothing ,when I'd switch to the exact same bait only with a willow blade . I'd usaully be succesful catching large fresh water bass . I'd call this tecnique playing to the latteral line . The fish would feel the change in vibration and mother nature would make the fish hit the lure by instinct ,, it was weak or injured . Take out the weak .. strengthen the gene pool ,, insure survival .Savage, but in there world probably true.. Just my theory why.. So like so many other saltwater baits this idea comes from freshwater.. feel free to copy ,, like I could stop ya .

Eddie, Poes has a hanger and spinner blade arrangement just like that on there Flaptails though instead of being up front it's at the rear of the plug and a touch shorter but the same design. It's a screw eye bent on a 90 degree angle a half inch out from the body and there is a swivel and colorado blade on it. Yours is only different in that it is forward and the wire a bit longer.

Why even try.........
