I found this pattern on a Striper chat room and thought I should take a shot at a smallmouth version. The original pattern was cream colored and I really like the simplicity.
I went with a brown scheme because I thought "crayfish" when I looked at the shape of the original. Leech yarn is bulletproof and really gives it a buggy appearance. Looks like a simplified sinking Bomber to me....see video below.

Awesome looking pattern--and yes it is a good copy of the crawfish, which will get a smallies attention. Thanks for sharing
