Nice looking lures
Mr Steve Coggin is a legend. By those photos it seems those lures have been fishing in my country’s waters. El Salvador.

Nice post Tommy, here's a couple pics of his Baby Peanuts and Peanut Stick Slant.
The Baby's are sweet and are deadly on the Tunas and Mahi!

They work in Bermuda too!

]Steve has made some of the best looking lures that I have ever seen. We pulled some of his teasers last year in the biggest tournament on the island and were raising Blues pretty consistently over the 3 day event, when the number of fish were way down from previous years.
Yeah, we did catch some of them as well.LOL.

Thanks Steve, I look forward to future projects coming up.
Jason.

Abosolutely love Coggins's work. If lures are hitting the water, at least one Coggin is going in.

Nice of Tom to point out the skill and dedication of a personal competitor of his. Shows the kind of guy Tom is and the quality of product Steve puts out.
