Wadaboutit?

Flagrant rip off, dusty epoxy, 0.1 oz heavy. Close enough. Ethics? Aesthetics?

2.95 oz sans hooks (should be 2.85). The originals sink but come right to the top with a slow retrieve. I have done pretty well with the real ones, even though they seem to be more "wakers" than "swimmers". It will be nice fish expendable ones now.

Your gonna get raped by the hordes at PF08 with those. Better wear rubber undies because the rumpswabbery for those will make Hitler's seige of Stalingrad look like a Sunday picnic in comparison.

Why even try.........
