Rob's swimbaits

Earlier this spring I messaged Roberto Higueruela about painting me a custom red ear on one of his gill glide baits. Rob was extremely great to deal with and got me taken care of very quickly considering a custom bait coming from across the big pond. The attention to detail is incredible and the finish is the toughest I've seen on a bait. Extremely slow sink and awesome action at any retrieve speed from a crawl to as fast as you can burn it. I love it so much I have him working on a 9" glide in American shad for me now.

 

This is the picture I sent whim wanting recreated and what we did with it.

And a 4lb spot I caught on it a few weekends ago.

It's awesome. It was a pretty wide glide on a crawl and glides out nice on a pause, you an walk it real tight or do a wide walk, but the most impressive to me is that you can burn it as fast as you can reel and it doesn't blow out at all.
