Location: Minnesota. | Yeah, if you bought it straight from AHL (as opposed to 2nd hand) call Phil. Bet he makes it right with you. A great guy!!
I have a boxful of his baits, zero issues.

Location: St. Lawrence River | Yep. Terrible rollers. Added belly weight no results. Tuned prop, no results. Had to run it painfully slow to keep it upright. |

| Turr-bo is one of my favorites. Had issues with one, contacted Phil, and sent the lure back to him. It ended up being a blank from an old batch that wasn't quite right. Had the new one in a week or so. Great guy to work with. My guess is it is an older bait. |

If you have the $$ consider picking up one of his Lac Suel Mini's. I have a bunch. Great little topwater baits. Plus it would be a super-nice gesture if Phil fixes/swaps out the bait in question for you.
He makes good stuff. Not cheap but good stuff shouldn't be! |
