Here are a few more little round bodies and a lone M-flat.

Love the bills.

Nice looking baits.  

Gotta love those small cranks, super color on that bottom bait. Flawless work, as always.

Nice.

I think the bottom may be for Marty to fish personally.

Hey there big M....nice cranks.  How are you making yours....wire frame?  Are you cutting the bait in half to place it?

No I don't use a thru wire harness.   I do not feel it's needed for bass baits and I've never been able to pull 1 of my hangers out.   My brother uses my wake baits for Redfish and none have come apart yet.

I really like your color combinations.

jbass, I've got 3 of the cheap baits from Jann's with about 100 coats of paint on each one.   That's how I come with the color combo's.  

No I don't use a thru wire harness. I do not feel it's needed for bass baits and I've never been able to pull 1 of my hangers out. My brother uses my wake baits for Redfish and none have come apart yet.

I don't use a harness either, just curious what your technique is.  I use a tungsten bullet wait with a cotter pin as my ballast, and then a cotter pen for the tail and either a wire or cotter pin for the nose.  

I really like that bottom one.  Sweet paintin.

Nice work Big M

i actually picked up som cotter pins today to try it that way do you just glue them in straight and it holds fine this way????

I crimp one end over on it's self and mash it in a vise.   It won't pull out if you do that way.   I have done several baits for myself without crimping the end and those have held very well.  I just make sure that I coat the line tie and hangers with my topcoat for extra strength.

Then just drill out the epoxy and install the rings/hooks.

great should make things easier Thanks alot
