Mmmmmmm....Tastes Like Eel!

Never gets old catching on my own wood! I made a few of these this past spring and had not really used them as yet......2nd cast last night and WHAM! A nice 32 incher inhaled it! I really needed that as I have been so busy this week with the house......it felt awesome and a great way to start my fall season! New moon good!

That's a pissa lookin' plug. I need lessons...

I just twisted one up.It swims real nice but pops out when pulled down hard to emulate a wave.I put a 3/16 by 3/8 pice of lead under the wire in the cut section of each side.I think it needs some under the chin,chimeny.what do u think o great jointed one.I used a lefty lip it may be too deep maybe a more's danny lip will work better.got to mess wit it some more.just tryin to keep it from lookin like swis cheese.
