RiverMan Posted November 12, 2005 Report Share Posted November 12, 2005 The top bait is 16" long, 1.4 inches wide and weighs 1 pound 5 ounces without hooks. The Turmoil on the bottom is 7 inches long for comparison. Wanted to show you the whole bait but it wouldn't fit on my scanner, lol. Jed V.

wsswesty Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 Hey Riverman...Those are some great looking baits. Just what I need when I go to Canada next year! Excellent paint jobs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiverMan Posted November 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 Thanks for the positive feedback. The lure is so big that I just can't imagine casting it. It does have a wonderful huge glide to it though. The big bait will easily glide 2 or 3 feet each direction! With all that weight once it gets going it keeps going! Fun to build too. It's so much easier to paint something this size, could have used a paint roller, lol. Jed V. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaPala Posted November 13, 2005 Report Share Posted November 13, 2005 Did U go to the auto body shop & borrow their spray-gun Jed? Good job as usual, time to get my GT popper rod out from the closet, my regular crankbait rods won't stand a chance against that monster bait Oh don't be surprise if u get a small fish on that bait LOL, my record was a 2in sebarau (jungle perch) on a 2 3/4in lure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatfingers Posted November 14, 2005 Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 Nice work, River. I was just reading an article about how few really huge baits are out there for the musky freaks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
