Hi guys,

Here are some first photos of a new design that kept me quite busy last season.
Some of you guys might have seen it at the Musky Show contest.
:)
It features a water through head, the lower jaw acts as a diving bill and will take this floater down to aprox 1.5 -2 meters deep. It performs a paced down flanking action and also does a little walking.

Looking forward to how you like it.

Very unique! That must have taken a lot of thought. I'll bet those baits will be killers for the Pike.

Just an excellent design; one of the best I've ever seen. If it runs as good as it looks, that is a real winner.

WOW! Now THAT is INNOVATION. There are a lot pf great painters on here but lure designs don't always get the credit due. Very cool and you should be proud of making something that was a true "original idea." Outstanding paint too.
