Very nice color scheme. I'd probably put the hook in the front half to keep the head from rolling out. Have you tested it? How'd it do?

Do you do your handcarves from blocks or dowels.? Which wood are you using?
Suggestion for future one.. Can I have it ? 
Great work! |

Took it for a swim, it lays in the water nice,the water rests where the BLACK starts on the back. started w/ a slow retrieve the TAIL started to swim then a little faster an the back started BUT not much. it is SNAKEY looking in the water it should get eaten by some hungry PIKIE
will be on it's way NORTH this week.
