Going to Canada LOTW in about a week with my friends, made them some glide baits. This new hobby for me it has been really a lot of fun, its hard to stay away from the basement, I just love it. It really a lot of fun to build a bait from scratch and than weight it, paint sealed and go fishing. It puts a smile on my face every time I make a bait, due to I really did not think I could do this, aguess never think you can't until you try. I am semi retired so I have the time to do it, I am glad that I found some to do with my retirement years

Great looking baits -- I really like those paint jobs. Best of luck in the water, hope something eats them!

What's their action like?

Hey thanks for your kind words Rem 308
The action is really great. I spent a lot of time reading on Muskie First and another site called Tackle Underground they have a wealth of information on weigting glide baitsl. I use the Archimedes system. It is very simple and easy to do, with minimum of equipment
Thanks again, that sure builds my confidence

Good fishing Gino
