I thought you guys might like to see this new sucker swimbait I have been building. The body is 6.5 inches long and the replacable tail attaches to the back with a coil........just twist it on. I have only built two of them, this is the second.

That looks like it could be a winner

I like the coil attachment instead of say the swamp donkey or tyrant attachments

Looks great, do you notice a distinct action change when you use one eye instead of the other?

Jed,
I'm big fan of the TurmoilX. I already love the action of new sucker. Are they going to be available for sale anytime soon ?
Regards, PSV

When you pull the lure at the lower attachment it will come straight through the water. On the upper eye, it will come toward you and then dive about a foot. There is definitely a change in action.

I have a few TurmoilX in stock if you are interested contact me.

Great job Jed. Do you ever take the time to look at how far you have come with your baits. I still remember that tacklemaking.com feature they did on you years ago.

Thanks Shane..........my wife reminds me now and then about the year of cussing I did when first learning to use an airbrush. Years of trail and error and help from others.

I think it would be too heavy it were any larger Bill. As it is, this lure weighs about 8oz.

Yes it is................but the Sniper is hollow, this bait is solid plastic. The Sniper weighs 6 oz this one is 8.

I'm a big fan of jerkbaits, gliders, swimmers.

That thing looks like it will get stomped big time, Jed.

Beautiful bait, Jed!! I'm also a big fan of your baits. After my last trip to MN a week ago, I have a 8" turmoil that is on life support. LOL! Keep up the awesome work, & PLEASE bring back the 8" Turmoils!
