Do you try trolling those slope heads from the kayak BT?

I had a fair amount of luck fishing slope headed stuff in 5-7' of water by letting it tag the bottom and stopping. If I remember I might try to build rattler size he made (6"?).

Nice work Chris, but I thought your shop was under construction? You still manage to pump out amazing work while not completely set up.

I have had some decent results trolling slopeheads at about 2 knots behind my Hobie. Both blues and stripers . Blues on South side of Cape and Stripers in Barnstable harbor.

My construction project was delayed by about a month so I have made a few plugs but my shop is mostly packed up. Thank god my spindle lathe , DP, and TS are still useable.
