These are my large danny's, being just shy of 8" and weighing 3.5 ounces thanks to heavy weighting and a pine body... they tend to roll alot less and snake a litttle better than their WRC cousins I make...I also feel that keeping the hooks tight to the body also aids in controlling the roll...

Smart move waiting until after Plugfest to build those. Otherwise there would have been a stampede. Either that or Flap would have attached himself you to like a 7 foot leech. Beautiful job on both.

Awesome!
