Reverse lures

I've seen a lot of Atom40's made but has anybody ever attempted to make a reverse Atom40? Or maybe even a reverse Conn. Yankee with eyes? That would be interesting to see.

It isn't a reverse atom, but here is my version of a Pichney reverse squid. 6 1/2" long and weighs 3 1/2 ozs.

a mess up

I was building a pikie and drilled the hook holes, after shaping the body. before I cut the lip slot, I droped it and broke the square ends off, tried cuting the slot by eye and it was off so now I'm building a reverse 40 had to fill the hook holes and drill another one filled the lip slot. I'll post a pic ed

its no ones fault

Nice Squids Mac and Jigman.... Angler #1 would love that purple one Andrew He has talked about the squid turning that color when they are in fear I think?

Good health and family
