Location: Glen Ellyn Il | I have been retired for about a year now and I really glad that I got this hobby to build muskie baits for myself. Life is good and I am enjoying my retirement and I get to fish a lot. My favored lakes LOTW LC and Vermillion Here are some baits I made out of balsa wood sealed with propionate and topcoat I used Devcon 2 Ton. I also made a special tool and a wood jig to form the wire for the hook hangars and tow line, it's fast and accurate

| Hey Gino,
got pics of your jig? Jigs are some of the best tools money can't always buy. |

| Nice work Gino. I know Bill Sandy uses twitches just like these quite a bit on LOTW and puts an over sized hook on the tail so that the bait has a tail down attitude on the dead stick - a very effective triggering tactic |
