Here are some new lures i have been working on over the past few months, i had planned to get them ready to put in the shop for mid August, but i got sidetracked for a bit.

There are 3 different sizes 6,1/2" 7,1/2" and 9" long they are hand made and hand painted and will be available in Brownie 2 colours, Rainbow dark and light as well as Char , Smolt, hope to have thm in the shop in the next week............just in time for the end of the Trout season but they will be good for pike as well .

They look nice, love the char pattern.

Any idea how deep they will dive?

Maybe 2 or 3 ft they are shallow running and if you cast and retreve them slowly they will fish subsurface and make a wake, you can stick them on leadcore or downrigger or divers to get them deeper.
To make them deep divers you would have to stick a huge diving vane on them, but i have some large metal diving vane lying around i will try a version with one of them on and see if it makes much of a difference.

They look cool

I put a deepdiving lip on one, it does'nt work, the lures are quite buoyant and the lip does take it down but it will not run straight i have tried tuning it from side to side but it still wont run properly.

On a deep diving lure the lip has to be balanced properly on the body and because the body has two joints in it i reckon its never going to run right as a deep diver.

It looks great as a shallow diver,i hope to give it a swim in a week or two and will report then.
