Usually when they don't give it a name and it is shaped like that they just call it a hand carved plug or lipless swimmer.I think they really took off after the rattle traps but they wanted a bigger heavier bait that had more of a bunker profile I don't know if they would consider it a slider with the flattened sides.I do know large rattle traps are deadly on just about anything that swims they just need bigger hooks I've caught weaks,blues,stripers,fluke sea robins on them I don't know if its the tight wiggle or the rattles or a combo of both but they work.Especially now on weakies(chrome blue back 1 oz.) early in the morning with the snappers around with a pretty good retrieve let it sink and then just reel it in they love it when they are around that will do it.

Does it float on its side when at rest or did you weight the belly in 2 spots most of the time they weight it where the 2 hooks are and have a single trebel in the belly and a siwash on the back but if if its not broken don't fix it.Maybe it has the action that just drives them nuts you never know until it proves itself.

Madcaster, Great looking plug. Does it swim like a Rattle trap? Nice Bass, must of felt great to catch on your plug.

It floats parallel to the top of the water …swims basicallyjust straight. But if I let it sit and jerk the rod a little ,it looks like awounded fish .I made a different one with the tie loop was farther up the head …morelike a rattle trap .that one did wiggle a lot better. I haven’t added anyweight yet .I’m still in the learning stages, but I’m still not afraid to step outsidethe box.
