I was done building, but then started making a few more of the ones I really like. These three are my favorites so far.

Top is a Pichney jointed sandeel copy.

Middle is a medium 6.5" conrad and weighs 2.5 oz. Its bigger than the conrad jr, but smaller than the sr.

Bottom is a bluestreak/A-40 style swimmer. Its got a bluestreak body w/A-40 lip and weighting scheme.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind

Enough with the frilly metal lip stuff.........go make some darters so you can learn to catch some fish.

Darters?

I'd like to actually catch a fish on one first before I build one...I still don't even know where to attach the line on one of the damn things yet.
