this is a "hot" one

Well done!

Great looking paint job Pete! Those U.P. and northern WI muskies will love it.

Thanks guys. Action is much like the big Dunwright Dancer, soft taps send it side to side and a wiggle as it sinks on the pause. I love the funny looks you get when you wheel up to a dock with a huge bait to make some casts and do some testing then drive off. A guy was walking his dog and kind of watching me out of the corner of his eye while I sent this bait for a swim this afternoon.

Pete,

Do you have any concerns about casting muskie baits off a pier when it's out of season? I'm not trying to be a jerk, really. I think about doing the same thing for the pure sake of testing but I worry that it may look suspicious if the game warden shows up. I'm assumng you're testing with hooks on the bait, right?

-Don

Man, you're knockin' out some nice baits, Pete! I really like that paint scheme.

Those colours work really well together Pete.

Good job!

Thanks for the complements guys,

Waterlogged, I do worry a bit about throwing big lures out of musky season but I don't spend more than 5 minutes testing it out. If I had to explain to the DNR that I am just testing a lure that I made, I don't think that would be too big of a deal. I do test with hooks as they do impact the action. At my stage in lure making where I am learning new things all the time, it is really important to get the feedback on the final product. Makes it helpful in what to try next.
