 Posts: 34 Location: OHIO | This is a 9" PVC Sucker I did in gold foiling fish scales.. The camera didnt pick up the details like I had hoped, but the foil scales look realistic in hand, put out plenty of flash too.. Taxidermist glass eyes, .o62 wires, 5/0 hooks.. This is a whopping 7.1oz., yet its a floater and has a nice "Z" sweep.. At slower retrieves its a wakebait w/the head slightly submerged & tail riding out of water leaving a V trail behind w/a wide lazy sweep while running slow.. At faster retrieves it runs 2"-3" deep, tight sweep.. It casts like a rocket, goes a country mile..

Posts: 34 Location: OHIO | Thanks for the comments, I appreciate it.. Here is another bait in the same/similar pattern, different body style.. Sinking, and is 8" length.. It has a wide sweep cranked slowly, prowls lazily with a 10"-14" sweep like its searching for food or vistims... Speed the retrieve up & the sweep tightens to 3"-5"..
