Bruce you know what I like about Greenbay the most, besides exciting football games, is that you guys have the most dedicated fans in the world. I highly admire that. It says alot about the people there. Good luck w/ that tackle shop. Don't ever give up on your dreams it will happen soon. CA Delta

Football, lets talk football. I live in CA, Bay Area, I can't watch the Raiders on TV because they don't sell enough tickets. Speaking of buying tickets thats a $200 day for me & the kid. So we sit in the LEFT FEILD BLEACHERS for $12, GO OAKLAND A'S... Just like a good game, football or BASEBALL. Your right though, Take a kid fising every chance you get.

Hey thanks Bruce. Man if you ever get that tackle shop on the waters edge, shoot me an E-mail & I'm on my way. This all started out as a challenge, now I'm obsessed w/ making a durable, realistic, swimbait. I'm so HOOKED. P.S. I've always rooted for GREENBAY!!! But I'm a big baseball fan @ heart.

Thanks for all the feedback. I'm beging to realize I've just seen the tip of the iceberg w/ making swimbaits. I take two steps forward & three steps back. This is quite the learning process. I just painted my swimbait w/ some OSH int. ext. enamal rattle can. Need to spray less next time, Waiting for her to dry so I can sand down & spray some Krylon. I'm sure I'll be buying a compressor & gun soon. This is nuts, LOVE IT- CA Delta.

I tried drilling free hand & the bit ended up wandering. The hole that the pin goes into was a mess. Instead I put 2 screw eyes for the top & bottom w/ a pin going through all 4. I need a strong pin to use. Any ideas? A 6/32 srew fits in the holes but the nut is binding my action. The bait is A four peice, 10" long & weighs 8oz. I made my cuts @ 30 degrees, not enough meet to successfully drill.

Thanks for the feedback. BobP is right, thats electrical phase tape holding everything together while I move & add more weight. This lure was 11" long & weighs 7oz. The hinge system was from a tie down stap for a motorcycle. The bad news is it absorbed the water into the belly cavity where the weights were placed. The head started sinking a little bit. I didnt like that. So Im on #3. Just got my stainless steel scew eyes in. Here we go again, man I love a good challenge. Thanks again CA Delta.
