I am playing around with it, would like to, cranking is a big part of fishing down here and if I could make something worthwhile it might be an advantage. I know they are not easy and I see how some of these guys get 20-30 buck a piece for them. I had one I hand carved a while back that I put the lip and line ties on yesterday just as practice and it worked pretty well. Dont know if it will swim or not but it was a good trial and error piece!! Next I am going to play with painting it. You get that bait there in a deep diver in that color and I will buy some from you!!
Looks nice , I have made several like that and they run good. I just finished one in a spring craw color. I will put up pics when I get a chance.
