Here's another option. At $4.29 works for me. It seems to work better and go deeper at a moderate retrieve as opposed to burning it. Very wart like. The crazy bug

Great inexpensive deep diving stick bait. http://www.basspro.com/Bass-Pro-Shops-XPS-Professional-Series-Hardbaits-Deep-Diving-Minnows/product/11083005011530/

Hey Josh, I just wanted to thank you for keeping us up to date in the james. Your reports are dead on and very helpful. Thanks again for sharing.

Rick Clunn designed a jerkbait years ago that you fill with water. Check it out http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=221185200264&item=221185200264&lgeo=1&vectorid=229466

I'm in at 8.30

I too have played around with Redfins for what seems like forever. Seems like you buy 5 and get 1 that does what you want it to. I developed a lure Bass Pro Shops is now selling that is very similar to a Redfin. It is called the Double Take. When fishing a Redfin it is very common that bass blow up on it 2 or 3 times before they get a hold of it or you get a hold of them. When this happens, most people pick up a grub or something and throw it in where the blow up occurred. With the Double Take you can just put slack in your line by extending your arms out, and the back bait will slowly sink in a zig zag motion usually catching the fish that blew up or another fish that was following close by.The Double Take looks like two minnows. The front minnow (which floats) is larger than the rear minnow (which sinks). You feed your line through a tube in the front lure and tie it to the back lure. Beck has one and said he wore them out on it last year. I did make the prototypes out of balsa and they did perform better than plastic. I just couldn't get Bass Pro to make them out of balsa. Keep at it dtrs5kprs. They look great and you should end up with a great wake bait. If you need any help, let me know.
