The two in the bottom picture at the bottom of the 4 are about as life-like as one can get. Nice work.

That's because it's actually a picture of a bluegill.

They swim like this in the video when strait retrieved. They walk under water when twitched like a Jackall Giron. I remove weight and make these topwaters that will swim and walk as well.

I'm liking the MCU after the learning curve.
