threadfin Shad

Wow! FF ,

I really feel bad for you. When you raise the level of expertise this high ,it's kind of expected all work to follow will also be at this level! But, here's what you can do. Edit all photo's , send this lure to me and pretend this never happened. I will keep it buried deep in my tackle box, well, at least untill the opener! Hey, what are friend's for?

Fatfingers, you have really captured the subtle coloring of the threadfin. Man! What would it take for you to make me one? Promise I won't tell . Very artistic work. Thanks for sharing.

David

I am not worthy! Awesome dual scale in the middle photo.

My comments can only mirror the others, but that is some beautiful paint work there! Personally, I would hate to see what a muskie would do to that bait, becaus Im sure it would work!

Very sweet............!

THAT ONE BETTER BE MINE!!!!

Has to be one of the best shad I have seen, clean and neat.

Ignore all those nice comments Vince. You missed it, unless you're fishing below a leaky nuclear power plant. Yeah, it boasts exquisite color blends, relative proportion and scale-work; not to even mention a flawless finish.

But is a freak. It is simply way too big for a little threadfin! What are those hooks, 18/0 or something? The Muskie have won. They've driven you quite mad.

Look. Send it to me, and I'll make sure that it never sees the light of day in public ever again. We'll forget your miscue, you can go into therapy, and we'll never speak of this again. Soon enough it will all be forgotten,,,I suspect that in about 20 brief years you'll have regained the full measure of your self-respect.

You can thank me when you feel up to it (check with your therapist).

anything for a friend,

Dean

Thanks, you guys.

Dean, between you and Rookie, a therapist might be a great idea.

Okay Vince, just keep your ol' giant plug...

(Dean forlornely shuffles away, realizing that Vince doesn't know that he and The Rook have been blacklisted by every therapist east of the Mississippi.)

Therapy... I DONT NEED NO STINKING THERAPY!!! "HONEY where did I put MY MONKEY cage... I havent seen it since I sent "Simon" off to Vince... that neighbor kid has been gettin on my last nerve lately."
