Take a gander at this wakebait vid

YouTube - Homemade 7inch wakebait

This is one of my prototypes. I didnt like the S-Wave action that you get from a normal double jointed lure so i experimented and got this little jewel!

LKN. Congratulations on your creation. I totally agree with you, this slower, less pronounced action seems a lot more life like.

I would like to see a side view picture, if you don't mind. Frome the vid, it appears to be symmetrical top to bottom. This contradicts some of the current thinking, that a big difference, top to bottom is required.

Again, I learned a fair bit from your excellent video. Many thanks.

Dave

This is really nice. The action is great. Have you tried to make one that sinks? That action on a slow sinker would be pretty awesome.
