Location: oswego, il | I would love to see how the bottom one in the second pic works. Would be interesting with that lip and line tie placement. |

ToddM: My idea was to cut the lip quite short, and use it as a jerkbait. But I never got around to do it, and it didnt run very well as configured on the picture, so I ended up with moving the line tie, to the lip. I will try to make the original idea, with the short lip once, but it ran very well as a crankbait when I moved the line tie to the lip.

Location: oswego, il | Still pretty cool. One thing you could have tried was heating and bending the lip more vertical. Bet it would have worked then. |

Location: Oswego, IL | Wow Pikopath making baits thats awesome to hear. I still have that one glide bait you sent me, I need to find a painter to repair it though as I accidentally hit a giant sharp rock I'm mid air and chipped off (well its still hanging on) a piece the size of a dime right by the eye, I wasn't too happy about ruining that glide bait. Loved that thing! Got any idea how i can fix this myself? would just epoxy work? |

Location: Norway | Thanks guys. I was out testing the topwaters yesterday and they ran quite good. @muskywhored, Its good to be back :), thanks to elGARRO I can continue with this hobby.
Ive fixed some baits myself with devcon epoxy, its the cleares regular epoxy Ive found. It isnt pretty, but it gets the job done. Michael
