Nice looking swimbait!! Is it custom made? -
No pro at it, but I take my pics outside on a sunny day. A couple things I have learned is to turn off the flash and have the sun behind you to shine on the bait. Hope that helps a little. Maybe one of the pro picture takers will chime in on this!! Patrick

5th Carved Bait--Foiled Photofinish Bluegill
Big Bass Man commented on Big Bass Man's gallery image in Hard Baits
Thanks Timbo!! I had fun carving them. I guess there will be plenty of wood chips in front of the shop now. Lol -
Thanks Matt!! I was hoping you would chime in on this!! You post some awesome looking baits Bud, cleared with the automotive clear!! I bought a mini hvlp, simular to the one you posted, and it works great!! Havent invested in the full body suit yet, but I probably need to. I have been spraying out of my shop door, with 2 fans at my back, blowing the overspray out the door. I wear a 3m respirator while spraying the clear. I havent fished the lures enough that I cleared with the Dupont Chromaclear to know about the hook rashing, but I would say stopping hook rash all together is probably impossible. Once I use it a while, I will make a post on how well it holds up. Thanks Again Bud!! Patrick

Nice looking bait for your first one painted!! You can use Bob Smith 30 minute epoxy or Etex and get a lot more working time. With the Devcon, you can only clear about three baits at a time. The other two mentioned , you can clear about 10-15 at a time. Good luck with your painting and look forward too seeing your work, down the road. Patrick
