They look awesome fourbizz, great paint job.

What are they made of?

Redwood Heart, hand shaped one at a time.thanks for the compliment!

Bet it took longer to arrange them for the photo than it took to make them.

So when should I expect my sample?  

d**n dude, you done messed around and turned into a lure maker.  Very nice looking baits and paint jobs!!  

BTW, I'm mailing out those lures to you today.  Yeah, I know I suck.  Mr Procrastination, that's me.  

those look awesome bizz. are you going to be selling any or are they all for personal use?

Very nice.  All the people from tacklemaking should band together and make a BassResource line of baits  

Wow awesome baits Fourbizz ! 8-)

And I love the color pattern too.

You seem to be good at hand carving the same form multiple times ! Congrats on that. Do you have like a Custom Bait company ?

Aren't the hooks on the biggest ones a tad small ? Just asking !

Very nice craftsmanship there, all of those baits look killer.

nice stuff.

whats the action on those bad boys?

Thanks all!!

D, they walk. And they walk like a MO FO!

;D

i lol'd when i read that, bizz.

those are some huge freakin walkers. good luck with them...post a pic of a few lunkers caught on them puppies!

wow great looking baits....wonder if the 2lb DE bass would hit one lol  ;D

SCHWEEEET!!!

(haha you pulled a brokejew)  ;D

What? the blanked out backgrounds? I have been doing that for years.

oh. i guess i just dont see too many of your pictures then.

Fine paint scheme. Very nice indeed.   8-)

wow those look as good as anything i've ever seen in a store.  i'm totally impressed!

Awesome baits Jay! Very nice work!  

Did you tie the hackle feathers on the trebles or did you buy them that way? I believe all topwater baits should have a feather or a skirt. JMHO

Ronnie

Thanks again guys!

Ronnie, with all the big baits being brought in from overseas and mass produced, I wanted to throwback to the style of the original big baits. Hand made, garage style. The only things that I buy are owner stingers, split rings and screw eyes.

I carve the gills in with a knife, not a dremel (even though I have a couple ) I hand make my own 3D eyes, tie my own feathers, pool test and balance every bait, and basically just put a bunch of myself into every one of them.

The guys like Matt(lures), Mickey (3:16), and Ken (Huddleston) are an inspiration to do it the right way, by hand, in America! I built the first one about 2.5 years ago when there wasn't anything like it on the market. But they have improved a bit since then . These and 8 more are already sold, to a new online shop, so I'll be getting started on some more tomorrow

I haven't forgot about you either, when I ship that rod back to you, there will be one of these in your choice of size and color in the tube.

Jay, what do you use for a clear coat? i plan on re-painting a bunch of baits soon and i need a good clear coat. i have used devcon 2-ton epoxy before but i was wondering if there was something else that would make a good clear coat.

Envirotex Lite

ok thanks. what exactly is that? is it similar to an epoxy?

oh, and by the way, do you have a drying wheel to get even clear coats?

it is a 2 part just like devcon.

yeah I do, might have to revamp it a bit. its not handling  30 ounces+ of baits at a time very well
