Tiger Muskies and Pike....

I'm going to change things up a bit this coming season and chase some big freshwater fish.... So I'm doing a few plugs like this....
She's about 7 1/2" total, weighs about 2.5 ounces. This is one of the first plugs I've done with an airbrush. Layering of colors, scaling, etc. Lots of fun!

Nice job, too bad that the tigers and pike are going to crush the crap out of them!!!.. beauty of it is... you can make more!

A good run is better than a bad stand!
