    would of slotted the tail three times to give a good swimming action. and free moving arms so they can swing back to the body when cranked but it still was good lure and great idea to make the legs soft plastic.

    I think this has been one of your best videos! Did you ever think about drilling a hole for the legs, and just making a mold that was one solid piece for the two front legs, and another for the two back legs? I've seen that sort of thing on Frog lures with hard bodies and plastic legs. That way, if the legs get worn out, you can just rip them out of the hole and replace them with a fresh pair.

    Not sure if someone already said BUT I grew up along the Nile River and I know this is an Alligator bait, not a Crocodile but when crocs swim, they hold their legs really tight to their bodies and only use their tails to propel themselves. That being said, you make some really spectacular baits, sir, thank's for sharing.

    Man you cannot judge the level of a lure based on that. If it swims good and it works how it is supposed to at that point it's up to the fish it has nothing to do with you unless you can't get the lure in the water.
    I design my own lures I did a baby rat and every time I cast that thing I think man if I was somewhere else the fish would be tearing it up just not here.

    Hey man you should re visit this, I noticed that you got the look of it down but I really think with two hinges starting at the head or neck area and one at the base of the body to the tail would really help with the movement of this luer. It look a lot better and more natural.
