"Birdseye Perch"


Yake Bait
 Share


Here is another in a series of four similar baits that I am working on. This one had a very nice grain with some fine birdseyes in it so I used the grain as part of the color scheme. Without bright sunlight the eyes don't stand out really well but you can see some of them.

8" Upper Michigan Maple body

0.062" thru wire

Createx Paints

Single layer epoxy precoat followed by two top coat layers

Sinks at a rate of about 6" per second

Nice side to side glide and will dodge back and forth on a straight retrieve.

I am left speechless just looking at your latest treasure; just speechless. The depth of the finish looks a few feet deep... I don't have a clue how you manage to stay out there on the leading of painting these kinds if baits week after week.
