Another baby bass glider

Davie,

I thought I answered you two days ago. Man, it must be the anesthetic.

For me, at least, the hardest part is figuring out what I want to do.

In this case, I had already solved all the mechanical problems with the first ones I made, and they were just scaled down versions of some bigger lures that I've been making for a while.

So the whole process was just mechanical. Shaping, sanding, weighting, finishing.

I use a bandsaw, tablesaw, drill press, oscillating belt sander, and screw eyes, 1/4" lead wire, brush-on crazy glue, and a hole punch/aluminum can/ball bearing rattle system, and it goes really fast.

On these lures I don't sweat the details. That's why I use sharpies for the gills and mouth details. I don't think a bass can tell the difference when it's gliding side to side so quickly, so it cuts way down on the time I would normally spend carving.

Of course, now that I've said that, I'll probably have to carve one, just to prove to myself there's no difference.
