I made a fishing lure with diving planes like those on the conning tower of a submarine. The idea was for it to dive deep but stay horizontal, like a sub's mid body planes. Ah…. didn't work. The behavior of the lure is unstable.But, the carving of a piece of Maple and the paint job ain't bad if I do say so myself. So, it will be relegated to a 'viewing' item rather than a fishing item this time. Ya win some, ya lose some right?A video of the build is here should you care to see a lure made from scratch from a piece of wood from my attic. It also contains an informal reasoning behind the submarine idea.
