Here are a couple of Mag divers. Top bait is made from white cedar is 7 inches long and weighes 1.5oz. Painted in my version of threadfin shad.

Bottom bait is wester red cedar, 6 inches long and weighes 1.125oz

I'm trying a new lip design on this one.

You can say what you want about the lengths but until I see something there for reference I wont believe it. You after all are also a fisherman ;D

Marty is pretty fearless when it comes to experimenting with these big Mags.

Look at the teeny little DD22 cowering on the right...

Holy cow, how deep of water do you plan on fishing? Haha. Nice baits.

Ha ha awesome

WOW, that is a couple large chunks of cedar there Marty, those are beautiful.

Marty is one of the few builders that understand just what it takes to get deep. If you want a floating 3/8oz. 2" bait to get 20' it just won't happen.

Thanks guys, those batis are a lot of work both carving/sanding and getting the bait balanced.   If one little thing is off the bait will not tune correctly.

John, keep an eye out because I'm going to make a 2.25 inch bait that will hit real close to 20 feet.

Holy cow, how deep of water do you plan on fishing? Haha. Nice baits.

I deep crank up to 25'.  

I haven't cranked deeper than 15'. The bills on those baits are huge.

15 feet??  Your fish must have a sunburn being so shallow.    8-)

Down here, shallows the only way to fish. Thats as deep as it gets.
