Perch

Wow. NICE job. It's so smooth it looks like it's made out of glass.

That is one sweet bait! I can't really make out what is going on with the belly hook hanger, but I have to guess it is as cool as the rest of the bait...really fine, imaginative work!

Lure--Prof:

Thanks for the words. I've been trying a couple of baits with extended belly hangers to see if I get better hook rates. So far all the fish I've caught with this bait have been hooked with the rear hook.

No conclusive evidence yet but the fish seem to like it. One other unexpected thing with this lure is it trolls well. It's tough to make it blow out.
