More 8" trouts
Two more 8" trouts, the one with the red gills is a little darker than the other, to simulate a fresh stocked trout. They swim great.
They are slow sink, and almost suspend on the pause. The floater I posted earlier weighed 81 grams. These weigh 105 grams. Their rate of fall is a little less than 1/2' a second.

I made these for just after a stocking, when the bass and stripers are really hammering the shallow trout.
My next batch I'm going to try and use the PVC from Lowe's, and I'll make them with flourescent violet stripes on the sides, instead of the Flamingo Pink I used on these. And they'll be fast sink, so I can dredge for the big girls which stay deeper and eat trout for breakfast out here in SoCal.
