| I thought I'd try making a beetle crankbait. I've seen them in smaller sizes (1-2 inch), but not for muskie.. this one is 3.25 inches. That is as big as I could get it and still have a good action. It has lots of pearled colors, and a super wide wobble action. I'll get some video of it soon!

| That’s a neat bait, and in the words of one of the greats “if it moves it’s food” |

| Much appreciated guys, all makes perfect sense. Muskies will bite anything if there hungry enough for sure.
Yeah I use the artist masking fluid stuff you can get from the craft store. I use to use rubber cement, but this stuff makes it way easier. |
