I have modified Bucher's walk-the-dog thing that is the front section of a Top-Raider. It was such a pain to work that I put a swivel and a heavy flaptail blade on it instead. It sits nice and low in the water, but I only use one hook, a 6/0, it's only a 4" lure so they should be able to get it all in their mouth.
A Pewaukee Turd Outing sounds like fun. "Turds Only"
I'll have to visit my buddy Smitty in Milwaukee.
Are those thin or heavy blades on his?
I prefer the heavy ones by a long shot.

Joel Wicks flaptails have quite the cult following as of late. i run his, alongside a few of Ryan Jinkersons lures, though in the rylres my flap tails are not straight flap tails like the wick or snodlow design. I like Ryans ctreepin flap tail, wobblin flap tail, and even the globe version. He also makes the subtle straight version most here are looking for, but the other varieties are cool too, for a change-up.

Location: SE, WI.		YA BEAV, We can check out each others turds, then go fish them. Should make some well done brats after fishing to signify the brown turds we threw for the last 3 hours...LOL Of course, you paint those flourescent neon turds, hard to cook a brat like that...
The outing should be early June for the best turd fishing. HILARIOUS!!! TURDS ONLY!

Spononsored by DEPENDS!
If you're already throwing one Turd, you'll need something to catch the others. New Depends, with the Turd-catcher pouch.

Location: SE, WI.		Esoz-hunter; My suggestion is you go back for 2nd's tonight during dinner. Maybe a few pretzels before bed. Turds just seem to appear the next morning!!!
