    It has a extremely small tube from the mouth to the belly. The line threads through it , so the weight is transfered to the hook.

    It has a "glass on glass rattle" two small beads inside. You can just seem them under the eye in the last shot.

    Goat... It's actually a regular cap. The torpedo is a darker green.

    Obviously I have a love hate relasonship with serra's. "I don't always drink, but when I do, it's Serra" (0r a strong ipa. Still have a soft spot for samual
    smiths taddys, stouts, any sammy.)

    The regular pale, is 5.5.abv The torpedo is 7.2abv , and hits you like champaign bubbles. (Fast) Some feel the torpedo is too much , too hoppy. Too grapefruit. Too bitter.

    Fwiw, the limited "beer camp hoppy lager " is 7.0abv, and tastes closer to a regular pale. Best of both worlds. Too bad it's one time only. ( it's similar to ballist point's hop head, in sandeigo )

    2015 pales seem to have a new "hand crafted" label at the bottom. I am unsure if that's because it's from the new NC plant , or they all have that label circa 2015.

    I thought the flash just lightened it up. Love torpedo, my favorite by far. First sip always give me that hoppy smile. The regular pale is a decent sesh beer, great for fishing. XD
    my label is different and a lighter color, cap is dark though. Click image for larger version.

    Edit: I can't figure why my pics are sideways. They're right on my phone, if I turn them before I post they stay turned. If I leave them right on my phone, they're sideways after I load them. Ugh

    /me is a % whore. I get annoyed when things are less than 7% and tend not to buy it if its less than 6.8. I miss out on a lot of good beer this way, but there are always things like Bigfoot Ale and Narwhale Stout So far the biggest bitch for me has been finding a strong red thats both good and not hyper expensive.

    Goat , it has to do with the setting that lets it go sideways for viewing.

    If you go to the camera roll. Hit edit. Then hit the crop icon. 0nce its set up to crop, hit the new lower left corner icon. It rotates the image. Make the image do a 360, back to the upright image, then post. It will be normal then. (ios8? idk.)

    I don't know why , I do know I have to do that some times on the I pad to get it upright.. (sounds like you are already on it)

    Torpedoes are my jam as well. Just got to be cautious, they can creep up in a hurry.

    Tonight's lure. Coiled green glow. Blue accents.

    This one is about 1/3 the weight of the first. It floats much higher in the water. It actually feel like a plastic lure from the lack of weight. I'm sure it would still cast a country mile.

    The rigs, seem to get bigger and thicker. I'm not sure about better. Hard to show the clear spike bridges on today's example. They are more squared off, vs. The bottom connection bridges that look more like stiff nipples.

    It's also much more weighted. The bottom lip is 5-6mm (50mmx heavy ish) the blue e.b.v. Is also thicker. I may be pushing my luck? So far so good.
