Put some paint on these two. I've fished the bottom one and have been happily surprised at it's success.... I'm not sure what the profile and paint job says to the fish, but it seems to work. The middle one by the time it was done says pollack. It will hit the water within the next week. Have several more cut to try out different profiles and weight balance (mackerel and pogie). With these two profiles, I've found that a tail hook deadens the action. So I think I'll add a little bucktail tail. I found the top one, forgotten, tucked in the back of one of my plug boxes and it brought back some great memories of pike in the Adirondacks. It will see some time on the water as well over the next few weeks. Keep y'all posted :-) |
