I've been considering making my own dragonfly top water lure and I ran across these while doing some surfing around. (River2Sea Dragonfly Popper ) They looked so good I ended up buying some. I read a review on them and they mentioned the best action is to roll them in slowly in order to mimic it trying to take off. First off I would like to know what everyone thinks of them. Secondly if someone has fished them what they think of them, how they worked, and any tips Regards, history

I'm not sure what you pay for your epoxy, but there is a company out of Califoirnia called AEROMARINE that sells expoxy. There prices and low and the stuff is is awsome. No blemishing and you can ever spray it through a HVLP gun.

No you won't have to thin it at all. It sprays really nice.

As so many other have discovered rattle can paints are in an abundance of colors, it dries quick and they are dirt cheap. The problem is they just don't spray very good. They either spit globs or you over apply and end up with runs. I have always wanted to paint flames on a hydroplane boat I built, but the cost of automotive paint was outragous. I ended up buying Rustoleum rattle cans and tried painting them, but I couldn't keep the can from spitting or get the fading I desired. Long story short I ended up spraying the rattle can into a funnel and let the paint drip into my HVLP touchup gun and it worked great . If your having issue with your rattle can paint job you may want to consider picking up a cheap HVLP touchup spray gun of airbrush and give it a try.
