| I guess Larry Dahlbergs wideglide. I know Manta's and Hellhound's has a very wide glide, go for the 10" models.

Location: Land of the Musky | I would have to go with a Manta. If worked right you can really get a good long glide out of it. |

Location: Elko - Lake Vermilion | The Perka has the widest glide I've used,.... 10" long and glides about 3-4 ft, with a really nice "Flutter" as is slowly sinks.....

Location: KY | I built this one on a whim a couple of years ago. It is 12" long, 1 1/2" thick and will glide an honest 3' to each side. It trolls too. I only threw it a few times then gave it away as a gift.

Location: Oregon | Gliders that will go the widest are generally really large.........12 inches in length or longer and/or have a tail design of some kind on the back. At one time I was building a 16 inch glider that would easily glide 5' in each direction but it weighed a pound or more. My turmoilx will glide a few feet in each direction but I have a resin lure I hand pour that will glide further.

| I recently bought the Dahlberg WIDE GLIDE and had a few problems getting it right. I found this "new" video .....with just a few suggestions from Larry Dahlberg himself on the proper technique and retrieve cadence. It helped alot. You might want to check it out for yourself.
