Making Chugger Topwater Lures

Hi , people , Another compilation of pictures that I had shot a few years ago , .........these lures are my own versions of the proven old "Heddon's Lucky13" , .......real pike killers May thru October here in the northern hemisphere . Tie them on a short and light single strand wire leader , cast out and let the ripples die away and jerk the lure with a flick from the wrist , ......it will then duck under with a popping sound and travel back at about 1 1/2 to 2 feet depth(45cms to 60cms) sporting a lazy tail wiggle and pulling a trace of airbubbles . Let lure pop back to the surface after 8 to 10 feet (2,5m to 3,0m)of retrieve and repeat , ....work it back in this manner all thru the entire retrieve , ....it even often calls pike to come and investigate , if worked on the same spot of water for a longer time , .........and then they'd most likely smash it ! Use round dowels of lighter wood , approx . 1" x 3 .75" (25mm x 90mm) or about equal body dimensions relations , .....the lure should not get to hang too deep for best function , ....a longer lower lip and a line tie placed too high will cause the lure to overturn on the intitial jerk , .........after my experiences any added ballast will slow down the wiggling action on the dive . Make sure to furnish the head cupping in a position , that the belly screweye would run CROSSWISE thru the woodgrain , ......adds a lot of stability and prevents tearing out wood pieces on the finished lure . Good luck , .....greetz , 61diemai
