Paw Paw Darter style lure



A darter based on the old Paw Paw design but with a mouth more like a Moonlight Bass Seeker. A combination of lathe turning and hand carving it is 4-1/4 inches long and sports swivel line tie, glass eyes and a rattle can paint job. What do you think?

Thanks for the kind words Bayou. I'm afraid you'd laugh though if you saw my lathe. I've worked with wood for years but have only been making lures for about 3 years now and I haven't bought a small lathe yet. This lure was turned on an old cast iron belt driven lathe with a 36 inch bed!!! I look pretty funny chucking up 6" pieces of one inch square basswood in it when you could turn a leg for your kitchen table on it! LOL
