Inspired by TU

Here are two model versions of a "Bomber" , that I've made after a member submitted tutorial here on TU .

Thanks to Terrydabassman for having it provided for us:yay: !

These are unweighted , and , against my habit , just like in the tut I did not rig the hooks with splitrings but straight to open screweyes , so they can't tangle .

But unlike described in the tutorial I have secured the lip with an extra internal woodscrew , right ahead of the front eyescrew(also passing through the lip internally) and countersunk into the body .

Since I don't have those special line attachement links in stock , and I can't buy'em over here , I have made a wire connector to rig to the lip , was a bit finacky to bend it on the finished lures(yet without hooks) , but not a real problem .

Tried them prior to painting , they do work allright , no overturning nor breaking out sideward , no complaints !

Painted this two with my rattlecans , also plated them with some glitter-jelly in matching colors prior to topcoating .

greetz , diemai

Nice collection of wobblers you have going.

On your line tie and the brass overtube, how is this connected? Is the loop that is attached to the lip just inserted under the brass tube or is coiled, pressure fit? Not sure I'm posing the question as well as I could here.

Thanks a lot , that tube is just slid over the two open shanks of the wire eye , only the linetie eye is closed by a coil wrapped all the way down to the tubing , so it can't slide up anmore .

I have found it easier that way than also wrapping a coil to close the lip-attaching eye , though it was a PITA to slide over the tubing over the very short shank !
