Looks great!  Very serpentine.

Look good your shape in the end reminds me of a cross between a Canadian wiggler and a kwik fish

I had a jointed flatfish as a kid and I caught a fair few decent, pike on it , I guess I tried to recreate it with this one but did I succeed? I guess time will tell. 

I thought that it was going to be a relatively straightforward build but it turns out that the simple looking flatfish lure is a little more complicated than it looks lol .

I've got it running to a satisfactory action but I'm still going to do a little fine tuning using bigger hooks/rings  ect  and sorry no video of the action yet  its quite difficult to test it in the tub and see the full picture I'll wait till I get it on the open water. 

If I were to make another I'd approach it in a different way, its been a great project to learn from when all is said and done.

im sure it is harder to do than it look.the previous message was more accurate,it look more like a canadian wiggler or a lazy ike. flat fish are more flat. one thing is sure these lures are not made to old 5 mph speed.my flat fish for sky got 3 sections.you have to buy 3 to make one,you need to  cut the front part.once again it is really sweet.what's the length ?
