Location: Finland		hey guys here is one of my winter projects that i finished off recently, i basically just converted my perch swimbait model to a swimmer type gliding bait just by making a new tail. i think it came out really nice.
this is not really a muskie size bait but at 15cm and 70g for the local pike its a perfect size meal

almost 6 inches isn't too small for muskies. That is one of the best perch baits I've seen.

Awesome as always Mikko!

 

You have me inspired to make my own door-hinge style swim bait. I just need to stop procrastinating. What do you use for the pins to hold the hinges together & how do you go about attaching/installing them?
