Exactly what I did, looked at pictures and carved it out of wood. Made a squirrel version also. I'm a patient man, but not wait two years for a bait patient. |

| I should shut up,,and probably make enemy's,,but I would look at the 'navin' a lot of converting over to that by local guys here after seeing them work, not cheap but you sometimes have to buy half a dozen dive and rises to get a good one and he makes sure their right,,I think he will be at Minnesota Show I'm getting one first day. |

Location: North St. Paul, MN | Muletrain's "SuckerPunch" should just about do it for you on the dive and rise. Wood, hand carved, custom painted, and you don't have to wait a year or two to get yourself one. Made right here in MN! |

You don't need to know anyone just reach out to Scott Curtin on Facebook then prepare to wait. I ordered mine December 5 2015 and they ironically showed up today. I don't think the line is any shorter now...

Location: Minneconia | So how does the Navin compare to the Barfighter? C andC'd? Action? I've had good luck on my Barfighters but if I can get a few new colors sooner than a couple years out I'd look at the Navin if it's of similar quality/action. |

Location: North St. Paul, MN | Here's the sucker punch. The lip is still being modified and will still be there, but flush with the bait. The Playmakers are there to show the painting skills. Those are a sweet erratic glide/jump bait.
