thats why they're here :

No, You will be promptly arrested upon proceding to fish firetails in clear water.

i always love the high level of detail you put into your painting! its excellent stuff! that craw looks really cool!

hmm turns out Sharpie is compatible with my clearcoat. i figured since it smears pen ink it would smear sharpie but this isn't the case. i guess now i just have to get one of those ultrafine sharpie markers.

cool baits, very original like always! how's the action on that jitterbug? from the picture the lip appears to just be bent in half, not "cupped" like a regular jitterbug lip. i'm wondering how this affects the action.... i really like that new "tiger" looking paintjob too

thats www.predatorbassbaits.com you're thinking of. also try www.crankbaitcomponents.com <-- they sell some pretty neat stuff, including a few swimbait blanks (magic swimmer, king shad,)

yeah minnows are any fish in the ciprinidae family, which is a really big family. plenty of "minnows" are well capable of getting 6" long. heck, golden shiners are sold that big as bait in florida! but like others said, the minnows would probably be eaten before they pose a threat to eggs. i'm not even sure if golden shiners will eat fish eggs.

hmm 5 rock bands is tough... i'd probably include godsmack, marilyn manson, drowning pool, hmm i don't really know. don't listen to rock enough to compile a list. imo pantera and all of phil's projects are metal, but i do love them all

TRUUUUUUUUUUUUE THAT! today's my last day of summer :'( >

hmm the acrylic and caligraphy pens not working out as well as it did that first time. the paint doesn't want to flow from the pen, and the pen is digging into the lure.

yup

yeah i'm using the waterborne polyurethane and it makes any water or solvent based ink run like you wouldn't believe. thinned acrylic paint + caligraphy pen = win

lol yeah that was me. i don't have any createx clear that i can clear over the sig with...... im sure i will figure something out.

try again ;D

it doesn't help that i have 12 characters to write either... "D. Saavedra '09" :-? ;D .....stupid spanish last names....

how do you guys get your name on the bottom of the bait? i used to write it on there with a pen but that gets really tricky, and my new clearcoat causes pen ink to run. i'm looking for a new way. do you guys use some kind of label? hmmm i wonder if a pencil would work?

you can paint one helluva golden shiner barry!

thats crazy! it doesn't appear to have anything wrong with it though, i'm sure it will work fine...

oh yeah thats another thing, Pitt's accent seems like it would get annoying, FAST. from what i've heard of it in the commercials i already don't like it. still wanna see the movie though ;D

I agree!! ;D ;D ;D

the plot (from what i've seen in previews) seems really far-fetched, but kinda entertaining at the same time, in a not so realistic way. i'll probably end up watching it when it comes out on DVD.

is this contest ever going to be over?

well its good you didn't disappear off the face of the earth... :-? I'll take it next if that other guy doesn't want it any more, or i'll just take it after that guy.

http://www.bbgunworld.com/store/item427.htm this is a good gun for playing in the house or running around outside the house chasing your friends. its really small and lightweight, good for running and chasing. mom doesn't like me playing indoors :-/ ;D

lol that'd be cool! do they all have to be the same model? right now i'm looking at buying the Eclipse HP BS
