i do maufacture lures. thru the years theres folks who claim monster incedental catches on the cranks we build. this peaked my curiousity.. being north in ont canada we dont have the monster largies the southern folks have..
-
im curious at the largest size of bass lure you would build or use. any bait including what you build. are we missing out?. just a thought.
-
whats the longest bass lure you folks belive is best..
-
the bait shape itself would influence action. you will need to experiment at whats needed. screw placement for line attachment has influence also.

normally a guy tries his paint or primer on a small area. we do many re-paints and customs from factories. in past we order cases of white baits. them we do artwork.laquer primers in white have done very well. on a older bait from your tackle box, we prime over the color laquer etchs in to the base coat as long as its stable, not peeling or flaking. then color then clearcoats.. clear acrylic is a good finish coat or automotive clear. it has a thin durable consitency not affecting action.
-
wow guys. we need sunshine and better weather.
-
absolutely can. one requirment is thick skin and lots of stamina for long hours. all the best
-
makes me chuckle. all the above has happened to me. i haver never seen a fish purchase a lure.. boy it sure would be sad if we only had black or white, colors

woodieb8 replied to shoalie's topic in Hard Baits
incompatible paint or they were not set hard enuff. thats the only issues i see. -
one trick we use is if you are using lacquers. we put glitter from components in bottle with lacquer thinner. add a couple ball bearings shake and spray thru a nu. 5 paashe tip. it etches onto paint. then clear coat the lure. hope this helps someone out
-
can you post a pic of what you have been using. it may help
-
i like that . happy new year folks. may your paint never sag in 08.
-
try a drywall store. they use metal mesh.just a thought
-
i never had a problem with the s.s. i dip in for 2 minutes. let dry then dip in white lacquer primer. after drying i san do the colors then apply my clear,,, new lustre. never had a lifting issue yet. even with water absortion after multiple fish, and water penetration. i use cedar or mahogany for woods. hope this helps a little.

i have been using lacquer sanding sealer for years. you will enjoy the results. primer adhere well and the finishes are much smoother. good luck. we use mc donald and white in canada. cheep and efficient.
