Guys have been asking for these, mostly to display on their mantles, but some to use. I have some ready and am trying to get more ready for Christmas.

Holy crap, it worked! None of them has Envirotex yet. This will give you an idea. I have some 1 1/4" glider bodies I'm doing right now, but they will be for display only. Due to the cost of the wood, these crankbaits are $30 plus shipping. These are all functioning crankbaits. More on the way depending on how I feel and what I can do. Just because this wood is old doesn't mean it just looks good, it's harder than Cedar with tight grain.

Here are the gliders. Over an inch thick, ten inches long+-. They all need 3-D eyes and Envirotex. For display only, no weighting. You let me know if you want screw eyes and hooks or what. They will look great for any display around your house or as a gift. $35 plus shipping.
Obviously pictures cannot do these justice. The place the wood comes from says it's all reclaimed, highly figured CA Giant Redwood. 300-400 years old? Anybody's guess. I'm lucky to get this wood away from luthiers who use it for any kind of string instrument, guitars being number one. One of a kind, that's for sure. Get one for the lure collector/ Dad/Uncle, whoever turned you on to Muskie fishing.
