plugfest plugs..with time to spare

Just finished up some plugs for Saturday. I'm not the best at approaching people to swap so make sure you guys hit me up. I don't want to take any of these back home.

This plug is one I've been working on since Fall. I wanted a plug I could walk aggressively then stop, give a little pop then let sit. Walk, pop, sit. Etc. So this is what I came up with. It was a real pain to get weighted properly. To much tail weight, wouldn't pop right, too little and it wanted to glide. Front hook placement also helps keep the nose down. Length is important too, for the walk the dog action. Amazing what 1/2" will do. I started with my favorite plug as a platform (Bernzy surf howdy), then added some spook and popper characteristics.

It also gives a nice little pop/blurp noise when walking. Think there will be a number of ways to use this thing. So anyway here it is.

6.5", ~2.0 oz.
