Location: Moses Lake, WA		This is my last 1 1/2" thick basswood blank, after this I'll probably return to 1" thick baits once I restock my basswood supply. Bait is 12" long, one rattle chamber, plastic lip.

Location: Moses Lake, WA		On the thicker baits I tend to make the lips wider so they can move around the heavier weight. The rattle chamber is also longer and gives a slightly different sound. Other than that there isn't much difference in 1" and 1.5" thick baits.
