Sweet, Dean! Let's hope the fish aren't color blind! lol

Nice job Dean. I like the very fine scale work and the color fades. But, what really caught my eye is the taper on the bill! What is the result of this?

Thanks Guys!

Douglas,

A lot of builders have noticed that their circuit board lips give the lure more action compared to thicker polycarbonate lips--It is not that the micarta lips have more action, per se,. but that the material is so much thinner.

I noticed the action difference after I began dressing the lips to a finer ultra-smooth edge, my motivation initially being to avoid losing fish that were cutting the line on rough deep diver lips...and the smooth lips seem to resist the rough-spotting, and stay smooth.

A sharper action and a bit more depth were side benefits of the lip smoothing for me.

Great Looking Bait Dean

All around great looking bait. All the attributes of a true master...builder!!! I am glad to see a pic that you can see the shift change.

Beautiful work Cuz.

I can see a color shift in the picture and I like that fade down the throat too.

That's going to get smashed in the water!

The great work never stops..... Great job Dean!!

FIVE STARS!!!!!!
