Not bad-tell him to make you one with red or orange beads in the middle--will work much better and don't charge for shipping-If you can get them for $12.00 I will buy 20

Looks similar to a Wahoo Whacker which I've only ever caught Marlin with and zero Wahoos. Give it a try, you may end up with a Wahoo lure.

Just another name for a green machine type of lure. The biggest problem is the resin. If it's old school mass produced it will crack and chip.

The new polyurethane resins are bullet proof, a bit more expensive but they will last.

We make them in HARD and SOFT heads.

Here's a few of ours..fyi more here www.canyongear.com

The last picture (Emerald Green) is the soft head resin and they are weighted.
