Looks nice! Can you tell us a little more about it? Is it hand-carved? How was it painted? etc.

Hello,

The lure is a hand carved split body lure. It has 2 ball bearings in it with a magnet in the chest for the ballast. For those who don't know, when you cast the balls move to th tail. When it hits the water, a slight jerk moves the balls into the chest where they stick to the magnet. This gives it superior action with a light tail.

The body is sealed and pained with 2k automotive paint. The holographic film is cut and heat set. The lure is finally finished with numerous couts of epoxi clear coat.

I make the eyes using a doming resin system.

Through wire is 1.6mm stainless steel.
