So, I have used countless plastic (and some wooden) Prop-Tail Topwater plugs with little to no avail. I have had some success with Topraiders, but the internal weight issue combined with my preference for wooden lures compels me to find a good wooden Prop Bait. I am looking for something that has a nice, deep plop but does not sit too low in the water. More than anything, I want something that works as I don't get to musky fish more than a few times of year and would prefer something reasonably priced. If you have anything suggestions or even a used bait in mind that you wouldn't mind selling, please let me know!

Also forgot to mention would prefer to find something that does not roll on the retrieve at fast or slow speeds as well, thanks for your help!

Seems like that's the anonymous choice so far, anyone know where to get one or possibly have an extra they do not need? Are there any videos of them out there?
