Here's My 2 Cents
To Make It Easy Used Either - Shurtape AF912 (From Lowes) and/or BriteBak (Order It On-Line.
1. Cut 2 Strips Length Of Your Bait.
2. Take A Sharpie , Turn One Of The Strips Over (Brown Peel Side) Lay Your bait Down , Just Draw Shape Of The baits Body.
3. The 2 Strips You Cut , Put Them Together Foil to Foil , Cut Your Pattern Out , Now You Have Your 2 Sides Cut Out.
4. Peel Off One Side and Center It , Push It Down , Now Take The Smooth Round Side Of
( I Use A Exacto Knife) and Press Down The Foil , Don't Worry About Wrinkles.
4 A. If You Don't Get It Centered , Just Pull The Foil Off and Center It Again.
5. Now Take The Exacto Knifes Rough Side and Roll It Over Your Foil , This Will Create Your Scales As Well Hide Your Wrinkles.
6. The Above Is How You Do Your Top and Bottom Of The Bait.
7. Its Going To Take Time For You To Get To The Point Where You Will Get Good At Doing This.
8. This Is How I Foil All My Baits , I Do Leave The Top Of My Baits Smooth At Times.
I'm Not The Best At This , But Like I Said , My 2 Cents.
