Title: Rigged 4'' Cherry Picker & "in water view"

The above image is how i rigged the 4'' cherry picker.I pegged a 5/16th reins tungsten weight & paired it with a 5/0 gamakatsu hook. one thing i noticed is with this hood & the way the bait is designed it almost ''self buries'' itself in the bait to make it weedless.what i mean by that is when rigged tx tigged the hook lays on the body in a way like its almost ment to be there.this should be a good thing when punching mats or fishing around wood.

These last 2 pics are how the bait will/would look in the water. what i like the most is everything stands in a defensive stance in the water

Thanks! I really like how it stands at rest. Id bet if someone were to want a more compact profile a simple cnip of the 2 back legs would make a nice slightly scaled down bait.

 DobynsTriton, I just found your youtube videos. I liked your under water videos showing the action of different baits rigged in different ways. They give you a better idea of what a bait will do compared to just a video of a bait in a tank going up and down.

Thanks! glad you like them!.i think it gives a better idea than a tank too mainly because i can move the bait a longer distance & i can show front/side & rear views of any bait
