The Beacon Blade is the smaller brother of the Alaska Magnum blade.  Stamped from .025 gauge brass, it is a very substantial blade.  Even with its smaller stature, it has the thump or feel of bigger blades.  It is a great trolling blade and the initial input is that it is a great blade when on the anchor.  It is a real nice fast spin blade and trolls great at a variety of speeds.  This series will soon include double sided patterns and my new Side Slice patterns.
