I have gotta disagree on the paint. I bought a few of the 6" baits right when they came out and if you even looked at them wrong the paint would rub off.

The moment my 6" hudds showed up I ebayed every Baitsmith and ABT I owned. Ken just builds a better bait, and he built it first. As far as the 7.5" goes, you have got to be kidding, .99 cents more than the bait it is copying and inferior paint to boot!
