Jointed, sealed and ready for testing.



Yes I stole the joint from the best (3:16) but won't do it again as it was a pain.

No balast in it and it sits nicely. Won't add any unless it needs it for action

OG for old growth.

Only negative right now is...

I wish you all could see my smile but I have been waiting for this day my hole life. A few days ago my 3 year old daughter suggested that I get her and my son fishing poles while in walmart. She wanted a princes one and picked a nice zebco 33 and cheap rod for my son. They have both been praticing c...

I started doing these lures a few years ago as I love the design of the lunker punker but wanted a heavy duty lure geared towards catching trophy stripers. I started making a 10 inch version but recently decided I would make something smaller for my bay and delta spots. Here is the lure making proce...
