Well, she isn't much, but  I'm pleased for the first try.

I actually started it last year and finally finished it in March.

Thought I'd share.

That's one sweet lookin swimbait hookemdown. Have you caught anything on it? Hows the action?

the shape reminds me of a strike king king shad and the color reminds me of a MS slammer.

nice job. are the fins carved right into the bait?

The fins are made of lexan, epoxied into slots.

I'm pleased with the action.  It as a nice side to side motion and can be crawled on top or cranked down to about 2 ft.

That looks good!

Can I marry it?   It looks good.

looks good 2 me

looks great! especially the fins and tail!!

You've been holding out on us.    That is a great looking bait.    I will give you an idea to try on the next one.   Move your lip slot forward toward the line tie just a bit.   Make the lip angle 78 degrees and it will wake on the surface much easier.    The max depth will be less than a foot.

Thanks for the tip.  I've got a little time off this week, so I might start another.  

We'll see how it goes ;D

Wow! That is a nice swimbait, how did you make the joints?
