  1. I got these gorgeous plugs from Cross Bones Baits. A musky plug builder out of Ohio *. They come salt ready, and are tough as nails. I got a crankbait, which unfortunately won't cast far enough for the surf. It'll be good for large mouths. The glider, called the Pocket D, swims beautifully, a sub-surface walk with just reeling, and darts great when jerked. Just wish it had a little more distance, still an awesome plug. Got home tonight, and rigged it backwards, thinking it should sit in the water the same way, but act like a squid, and cast further. Any one try this? If this works, I'm calling it Cthulu or the kraken. *
  2. Hey guys, I had an idea for a while about making a glide bait and recently dove in head first and made one. I really like the way it came out, but the side to side action isn't present. I was hoping on a steady retrieve that with twitches, it would zig and zag slightly. However, upon a steady retrieve it simply glides straight in. Does anyone have experience here that they can lend me a few tips/tricks? For reference, it has a large belly weight to keep it from going flat side up, and instead of a trailer or a tail hook I put a swivel with a colorado blade (could this be keeping it on a straight course? I haven't tried without). Also, the prototype design doesn't have much of a keel on the front, it is relatively flat. I thought maybe adding the keel could provide the action I am looking for. I have a few more blanks roughed out so I will be trying a few things myself, but I would appreciate any input you guys could give me.
