Heard a lot about the magnum sized Hard Head. Believe its called the Bucket Head. Could someone post a pic of it beside the large. And where did you get yours? Thanks

I've gotten all of mine in each size at the Michigan Muskie Shop.

I am sure that you can order them direct from Roger (H20). They are great baits made by a great guy

Yes, the Bucket Heads are awesome! I'd post a pic, but I'm on my phone, and don't know how to from here. I got mine straight from Roger, but I believe that the Michigan muskie shop has them too. Jason just changed buildings, and has been getting screwed by the phone company, so email is the best bet to get a hold of him. Should be on the website.

BucketHead is the name we call the XL size HardHead (because the fish that eats it has a head the size of a bucket

) and I hand pour them at home and am trying to get some made. It weighs a little over 15 oz. and is 15" long (tail stretched out as in the water 19") with the worlds largest grub at 12" and 5 oz.

Last fall I made some fronts (late stage prototypes) for the Michigan Muskie shop and he had them with 11" Boneyard tails until I made a silicone mold and finished up my tail. Since then I have made a larger custom spring for the back and with the help of some friends got an aluminium mold for the tails and can now hand inject them at home.

The HardHead at this time is only available at the Sportsman in Appleton, Michigan Muskie Shop (Jason as some of his own customs colors available), Figure 8 baits in Kenora might have some wood ones left and Tadpole's in Eagle River and direct from me. Rollie and Helens does not stock any right now (they had some glow Cisco for a while). The BucketHead is not fully available yet as I am trying to get caught up making blanks to paint. The picture is of a BucketHead and a regular large.

Roger and MuskyJim thanks. Gonna have to get a couple for sure. Roger I'll send you an email to get on the waiting list. That copper color is going to be a killer.

The buckethead is a big bait, as shown in the pictures. A little narrower in the head, but they are as big as a Pounder. I got one last year, and it started catching fish as soon as Istarted using it. I have a wood one and need to get a plastic one sometime when they are available. Great baits.
