6.5" Fat Tail

My spin on the  Atom Jr....  a great prospecting plug when you are fishing unfamiliar areas. Can be used on or below the surface, and will dive 4-5' easily.  Mimics any medium sized forage fish spring, summer or fall.  Thru wired and rigged with one 3/0 VMC belly treble and a 5/0 VMC dressed si-wash tail hook. A good all-around choice no matter where you fish, particularly if you prefer the no muss,  no fuss of a single belly hook. I have removed the tail hook on my personal plugs and replaced with a flag, while upsizing the belly treble to 4/0. Makes catch and release much safer and easier. Either way its a great plug!
