With a hard non-jointed body how does it have any action or keep from just rolling in the water? Looks great too, btw.

It is belly weighted and the 7/0 hooks help too. Plenty of water displacement and chugging for attraction.
Thanks.

Thanks, can't wait until ice-out and then about june-ish to use her again. Fun bait to drag out with others on the boat who have not seen it before.
