Kind of playing with an ideal

The tail end will be weighted so the nose and wings are in the air weather on the kite or wineing on a rod hopefully. I payed 50 cents a piece for the big j hooks I'm expecting them to go up in price. Going to make it so galvanized hooks are replaceable weather, molded into the lure or not. It's going to be awhile before I'm done....and this post will sink into the archives before it will be brought back up. Something for me to look forward to and thanks to all that share fishing reports ect. A small bird frozen will fall dead from a bough before ever feeling sorry for it self and broken wings shall be replaceable, so it may sore again.

I put a 1 1/2 inch band of laminating resin and cloth.

To keep aluminum tail from cracking out, it's supported with 2 pins

RIP Tom Petty..... his music still Rocks! Plasiti-Dip is a cool product -- use it to blackout/protect stainless steel fittings on the yak. Creative idea to make a tail out of it. I would be concerned that it might make the lure helicopter. Staying tuned.......

My concerns were cutting 100 lb braid line, if there's a tangle. Hopefully lure doesn't slide past the swivel on the 500 lb wire rope. The adrenaline is always high testing a new lure. A rush you might say. Can always scrape off.
I forgot I'll be running a topshot of 200lb Mono, before the 100lb braid 🙃
