My phantom brown wiggle warts

I think they turned out real nice.  Great pattern well done.  They should catch 'em good.  Thanks for sharing 'how ya did it' too.  Did you mean .03 oz?  I don't think it could add .3 oz.

Thanks.  I hope you're right.

I meant grams, not oz.  Doh!!!

I weighed both baits before I dipped them, and they weighed the same.  Afterwards, the one with two dips is .3 gram heavier.  That's a little less than .3 oz for sure.

I'll check them again tomorrow morning, in case I'm hallucinating. 

Nice work Mark!!

Thanks.  I wanted a transparent scheme, like the old Wiggle Wart Phantoms I've seen, and this one is see-thru from below and the sides.

Our water is clear out here in SoCal, so I just want to give a hint, not hit them over the head with something solid.

You just had to make me order more baits to paint didn't you? Nice work buddy. They oughta catch for ya.

Mark, those are very nice. Craw patterns are my favorites and you did well on these. I'll bet they get clobbered.

John. 

Thanks John.

They are really easy to paint.

I dipped them both in Solarez, including the bills, and hung them to drip before I cured them, so the resin on the bill would be thinner and not affect the action, but would still protect the Createx on the bill.  It worked, and held up for the little bit I threw them this weekend.

I fished both this weekend and they hunt just like the better old versions.  The new lake I fished was low, and there was very little rock in the water, so I didn't throw them much, but they do swim really well, and are erratic, too.

Jim Sharphorn of Predator Baits nailed it!

 

Ben, 

At $2+- they are a steal!

"Don't be dumb, git you some!"  Hahaha
