Some nice gills. The fins look good on the first one also.

Looks good, should work.

Again, the foiled baits really stand out.

I really like the golden shiner. Looks like you used quite a few colors on the swamp monkey gill Looks good

Nice work. The second one looks like it would do some heavy thumping.

I have a family member that was diagnosed with a case of it. It can be hard to get used to. And a gluten free diet is EXPENSIVE depending on the foods.

All of the above

The foil looks great!

Yeah, that's the one. I plan on trying what he said as well. I'll attempt it with some other materials once I find some time and hopefully can find a way to get the look you're talking about.

Overall the bait looks pretty good. I like the stripes, but have to agree that softer edges look even better in my opinion. I've struggled getting soft edges as well though. Did you try Tom's method?

I picked up a few packs recently. Will be putting them to the test Saturday

All look good, favorites the gizzard shad though

Looks good. The scaling on the belly looks nice also

They look good. I like the crackle effect

Yeah, we get slammed as well. Sure gives me some allergy problems as well

That looks INCREDIBLE! Everything from the bait design to the pattern looks perfect.

That is one clean pattern

Nice paints. I like the swimbait as well

Nice, I like the stripes. I agree with throwing a gill on there

Looks good, cool avatar picture as well

That bream pattern is killer!

You have some incredible talent when it comes to baits

The tennessee shaad and red craw stand out

Great idea, he should like it!

Looks perfect. I like the natural patterns you've posted. BTW, I saw the thread on TU about painting the bluegill stripes. Let us know how Tom's method works out for you if you don't mind.
