Squid flaptail

I've always liked the looks of the Norris squid but have never been able to see one up close. I have no idea on the dimensions of the original but here's my take on one I built as a flaptail.

a differnt twist.... I'll have a few of my copies at plugfest, I've never seen one up close either, but using demensions ( scaled from a picture of one made by Cape Sams) I've made several the swam well, as a top water plug and a darter...

Nice to see some out of the box thinking...

A good run is better than a bad stand!
