Very cool looking bait.  Will you eventually upload a vid of it in the tank?

The Bassmasters classic results sure won't hurt this good looking mold.  The classic was won by a fine young man from Guntersville, Ala..  One of the two baits he mentioned as his major baits looked a lot like the Flapping Hog.  You aren't physic are you, Jason?

That's cool.  I'd love to see a pic of it.

You know Jason, I would of never imagined those combinations put together, but It works. Good Job!

Chris Lane was using an Ugly Otter from Gambler.

However, another angler in the field was flipping a Yamamoto Flappin Hog.

I didn't even google Flappin Hog.  I guess i need to change the name.  Any suggestions?

It's a little like both of those.  Maybe we should call it an ugly hog, or flappin otter  ;D

LMBO, After I started reading down the list on this one, the only thing that was coming to mind was, HERE WE GO AGAIN!  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Don't be too fast to jump to any conclusions Jason.  There might be an ulterior motive at play here.  You can't develop and make molds if you are in Jail.   :-X  :D  :-\

I am curious to see the action on this bait and how it may differ from the flipster.  I am guessing there is some subtle movement of the flappers which gives a little more action to the bait but I am having a hard time visualizing.

I just wanted to share a tip on this bait.  JR poured me up some of these with a red tail and I split the tail and cut the middle out of both flappers.  The fish were all over it last night.  I was using it as a trailer on a black jig.  I'm sure some of it had to do with the red tail, but splitting the flappers and tail really seemed to increase the bites.  Give it a try and see if it makes a difference for you.

Could we see a picture of the cuts if possible? Straight cut on the tail and a "V" cut on the flappers?

Here is what I did:

This is how I cut the side flappers (made them look more like claws):

Here is a poorly split tail (should have a little more V in it):

This is the red color I was describing.  It is a combo of 2 of the new X2 colors we will soon be offering:

Hopefully this helps.

And yes, the red creation was all CCM Jr!  He just has a knack for creating great colors.  The colors haven't been officially named but they were a Red and another color we'll call Jelly for now.

Thanks for the information and pictures! Sometimes a crazy color (like that red) will really catch fish. Something they haven't seen.

Ok I'm sold on this bait now after seeing those pics.

Any chances of a "Flappin' Craw" ...with the modifications in the mold?

Definitely worth mulling over.  I do this to almost all baits that have flappers on them.  The Boss Hog makes an excellent trailer cut down and trimmed this way.  I learned it from an old pro who I get to fish with from time to time.  - If you ever get to fish with an older fishermen - DO IT.  He's forgotten more than I know - crazy good stick.
