Some "Jitterbug" style topwaters

Also finished these today , they are made after a picture of a custom made American lure , that a friend had sent to me years ago .

I have made this model before , and they do work fine , but this larger one is my first one jointed .

Both lures are made of abachewood , approx. 6" and 4" body length .

The smaller one has a homemade prop of 0,5 mm stainless steel , little less than 1" from tip to tip .

Actually I did not have an idea how to finally paint them , so I chose that "rubber-O-ring" masking method for the smaller lure and dotted the larger one with earcleaners and modelmaking enamels in multiple colors on a sprayed basecoat .

Thank you John , but I haven't yet tested them in open water , got some inconvinient weather presently , so I wasn't feeling like getting out to that small pond next door .
