The short answer from me is YES. Unpainted bodies from Jann's, Barlow's, Lure parts online, and several others. This is an addiction without a cure, just trying to warn you.
-
Try pegging the weight down tight to the head of the worm. I use a tooth pick for that job and it works pretty well.
-
To me the 1.5 looks more like a shell cracker pattern and the other bait looks like a blue gill. Most custom painters will shoot a shell cracker with more brown on the body and a blue/black head.
-
This is a tough thread to follow. Post a profile pic of the bait to show what part of the color pattern is missing.
-
Good looking bait, very sleek body.
-
All those baits are looking good. I want to see a chart belly on the last bait, that would be a killer looking combo.
-
Ben, those baits are 2" to 2 3/8" long with most weighing 3/8oz. Dave, can't have those bass teeth scuffing my clear coat.
-
ZEN, That's the kill spot. It's suppose to give the bass a target on the bait to hit. I'm not sure if it increases the number of bites but I don't think it hurts.
-
Now to kick off the new site with some cranks. Very pic heavy.
-
Very nice work as usual Cliff, I still hate your painting skills.
-
Need a little help, seems I'm not smart enough to figure it out on my own. I keep getting an Error message This upload failed. Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong. Just figured out the problem. It works
-
Great looking baits Ben. The B2 clone is my fav but I have a soft spot for the big round square bills.
-
I've been making my own willow beetle spins for several yrs and it's my main bait for wading in the summer. I use a 1/8oz jig head, #2 gold willow blade, teeny brush hogs or flukes for a trailer. Killer bait for small creeks and rivers in my area.
-
Buy a yard of tule from a fabric store, it will last for yrs.
-
-
I cannot decide which bait I like best, better send all three back for a closer inspection.
-
Flex Coat Ultra V high build, 2 coats.
-
Here are couple of med depth divers and some shallow runners in my fav messy patterns.
-
Very nice looking swimmer.
-
Cliff the colors may be out there but the brush work is off the hook. All the baits look amazing.
-
The shad and craws are very nice indeed, I'm not hip on the spotted ape pattern, just a little too busy for my taste. The paint work is spot on for every bait in the bunch.
-
I have a couple of body styles that will have the hunting action every time. I have not figured out how to control how much zig/zag each bait has.
-
Here is a nice set of baits, big brother and little brother. Same body styles just different sizes and weights.
-
I like them all, good work Barry.
-
Bait #2 has that funky zig/zag swimming pattern. Gets real crazy banging around in rocks.
