From the name on the post, I thought this might be about my wife instead of Muskie lures...:)

Cool eyes on these baits!

what does the top bait swim like? I like the huge eyes in the bottom bait. I'd throw em.

Top bait rocks back and forth when reeled in. Swims about 3-4 feet under the surface.

I think that big eyes are an under used method on baits. I'm convinced that top predators get turned on by them.

I do everything by hand so my baits tend to have a folkart style to them - a little rough - you can see the balancing plugs on the topwater, but I try to think like a fish when I am making them.

The hooks look too small so I'd be concerned about that. Have you had any success with the fish on them yet? Interesting stuff, though!
