Just goes to show what can be done with a basic pattern. Paint jobs are what makes or breaks a lure. For my money, your colors really make those puppies jump.
Nicely done!
This "shell" pattern as I call it, comes up a lot. It gives the painter a license to do what ever they like. An abundance of color combo`s keeps this puppy from growing old.
A bright, red-eye would have looked nice... J s/n. Like the PINK>
Can`t tell by the pic, but if has the body type of a rattle trap..........................That puppy would be a go to lure here in Fl.
Looks to have some serious hard wear on it as well. Nice paint scheme.
Very nice.
Hard to "pick one" out of all the really nice offerings. Talent shows! I have none, so I appreciate what others can put together.
The full body of yours caught my eye. Looks like a solid hook as well. Nice mix of died hair. What ever. Finished fly. Grade-A
Strip.....Strip..... set the hook!
I fish a lot of blade baits. Were I fish they pay off in spades. Weedless hooks. Nice touch. Different line ties. Different action.
Home made.....metal work, nice. Lots of paint combo`s available. Nicely done.
Really like how you included the bill into your design. Like the flat look of your paint scheme as well.
Never did like that type of eye though. That`s on me.
Fist Bump.
