Right on. I agree. A slab sided slugo-type surface plug that will roll onto its side as you "walk the dog" has big promise. I've turned out a bunch of those larger Frech Banana plugs, and they look good in their own right, but I've been thinking something smaller would be better. It looks as if you hit the nail right on the head. Nice work.

Don't know, I'm home now so no jacuzzi for test swimming plugs  Threw them for a bit this afternoon. Action looked pretty good. Still need to test out some other weighing configurations.
numbskull, I've seen the photos of those Frech plugs. How are they used? I was thinking that they were more of a floating, slow wake on top action. Is that correct? The ones I did will wake on top too, but was going more for the slugo type action.

Jigman. These Banana plugs roll and plane side to side with each twitch of the rod tip, but they're too big and heavy in my opinion. I'll pm you some more weighting info, etc.

You always manage to get "Jiggy-Blue" on your plugs. |
