Thanks Guys. The tail on this bait is diferent than the tail on the bluegill. The bluegill bait has my original boot tail with a fin added to the top and behind the "boot" This new tail is the oposite it is a fish tail with a boot molded on to it. Instead of having the fin behind the boot, I used the boot to create the bottom half of the fin. Once you see them in person you will understand. I have several ideas for making baits swim. I will use them to make each bait swim the way I think it should. For example I think a bluegill should thump so I like a big wide boot tail. A trout has a much slower movent so I might use a diferent type of swimming design when I do finaly release a big trout.
