It seems as of late we have become so focused on lure form that we have forgotten what really matters most........lure function! Some of the work here is just amazing but lets face it, a lure painted flat black, red, or white with no clear coat will still catch fish if the action is right. All the perfect finishes, scales, fins, fin-rays, lips, etc., will do nothing if the lure isn't swimming correctly.
So, lets see how some of these lures swim, heck with the finish, what do they do in the water? Lets see gliders that dart and glide and look real! Lets see some cranks that wobble and hunt and come straight back to the angler.
Here is a pool demo of my beerbelly glider..........I will upload more videos as the weather here improves and I am able to put them together. I have a video of my topwater also but I don't like it very well because the video quality is poor.

Gents,
You can submit your video to us, and we will be happy to stream it in much higher quality than other services. If indeed you wish to use a You Tube video instead, please use the 'embed code' and place it in your post.

last post was for Nate and that was befor I saw the beer belly glider. I want one and I am truly impressed. Both these baits are what basement baits should be about. I love the awesome paint jobs else ware in the forum because it is art. But I want these in my tackle box so I can catch fish wonderful work fellas

Thanks for the compliments guys! Sorry again about the really poor video quality. I do have some pictures of them in the buy and sell forum under "swimbaits".

Do you have to use a digital video camera? I have the old fashion dial-up here in the boonies! Jed it will take 23 minutes to load yours! Nates took 7 minutes for each one! Jed I will load yours later when the traffic is down.
How do you do this? Will I be able to do it with my dial-up? I have not been able to view the thread "pictures of baits" in over 2-1/2 months!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It really sucks. I imagine there are some incredible baits on there.

Here is mine: Mine is the lower big lure (16 inch Grunt) running next to a 9 inch Grandma. That is about a 24-30 inch wide wobble. I would love to say by my own design but, I think I just got lucky and she wobbles wide http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vKuq5dKNFwE
Getting a better video ASAP. This is actually a video of a video! LOL
