5 and 3/8 inches, 3/4 oz.  Looks like it has potential.

just don't give Jeff any free tackle because he'll never use it.I sent him some baits to demo for me that he agreed to, but he never followed through.. Even after several reminders he still hasn't done it. dude , if you didn't like the lures you should have sent them back , not just throw them to the side and forget about them and then keep lying to me saying you're going to do it. I know it's been at least 9 months now since you told me you would throw these lures and I STILL have not heard anything from you about them. Guess I should have mailed them to you in a Tackle Warehouse box......

(If anybody else is interested in getting FREE tackle just ask.  All I want is you to fish it ,and then report back to tell me what you think.)

This is a slippery slope, giving away free tackle.

No, I was just saying that giving out free baits has little return value. You get a handful of loyal guys who appreciate it and give you great feedback, the rest say thanks and never fish them. Same with "pro staff", does anyone ever notice a small patch on someones jersey? Does anyone notice a small decal on the winner of a NASCAR race? all im saying its a high percentage way of losing money.

just to clarify things I made and sold my first lure in 1989. Decades later still in business. Still giving away freebies. The last 17 years I worked in a tackle store/marina. I know marketing Mitch.

I'm not questioning your marketing prowess, just trying to help you after i observed frustration from your first post...carry on Sir

Dang dude, I did fish them, didn't get a bite, so I thought that it would not be a good idea to post that on here.  But since, you asked, there you have it. 

You asked me if I wanted them, and I said, sure send me some, if I do good I'll let everyone know.  I've missed quite a bit of fishing time the last year, knee surgery, trailer issues, flooded lakes and just haven't been out on the water when there's a good top water bite. 

BTW, you could send me a PM asking me what's going on rather than ranting about it here.
