7 inch QT trout

These are the last eight of the set of 12 I made to sell. 6 floaters, 6 slow sink (rate of fall 1 ft. per second).

All are AZEk PVC decking.

Tails by Captsully.

Eyes by Pred Bass, 9mm asymetric gold/silver/black.

The floaters weigh 70 grams+-, and the sinkers weigh 80 grams+-.

Kryon white primer, Auto Aire Wicked white undercoat, Createx pearl silver sides, pearl white lower sides and belly, Apple Barrel mossy green with a couple of drops of Createx trans. dark brown for the shoulders and back, then light coat of straight trans. dark brown over the back.

Createx irridescent violet and trans flamingo pink for the highlights on the cheeks and down the sides, red water based sharpie for the gill red.

The black trout spots are Createx opaque black, applied by dipping a small drill bit and hand placing. A true pain in the.......hands.

A coat of Krylon pastel fixative to help the epoxy flow evenly, then two coats of Nu Lustre 55.

All the ballast is in the first/head section, for both floaters and sinkers. That way the tail really "tails" on the floaters, and the sinker dives head first, and swims level, because the tail is buoyant.

There. I have no secrets now.
