The "Flee Flicker". Been in the works for a bit and hope to have about 50 or so by soft water. Im liking the weighting of this bait for both action and individual tuning.

Looks awesome...Does it have two different line ties? One on the nose and one on the lip?

Matt,
all the weight is in the tail and lip. putting a weight on the lip allows me to balance a finished bait to be more consistent from bait to bait as wood varies in density by increasing/decreasing the size of the lip weight. its quicker to do as well. float testing it, making changes to lip weight is a breeze, along with simple , contrasting paint jobs as shown will allow for more baits to be made in a busy life.
