My intention wasn't to throw you under the bus Jeremy. I love this bait. Grant on more than one occasion said to hit you up and you would fix it. Problem was I was to busy fishing it and didn't want to part with it for any amount of time as it was my only one. When it got bad enough all I did was cake some epoxy in the holes and it didn't mess up the action as far as I can tell.

Yeah I know hook scars are inevitable especially when you add on the Owner 2/0 stinger hooks. I plan on doing that to my dad's 2 punkers and any new ones I get (as soon as I have some spare money).

Ok. Well this thread got off topic... Punkers are for sale from their website www.blackdogbaits.com


Below is the smaller of my two Lunker Punker fish caught a few weeks ago the larger one was weighed at 14.1 lbs but didn't take a picture.
I also dumped a 5+ LB Largemouth at the boat the day before... }(
