Sonny.Barile Posted April 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 The chubby ones are Breams. 4-1/2 inches long and about 1-3/4 oz. The longer ones are Divanni No Twitch's 5-1/2 inches ,ong and 1-1/2 0z. I found patterns for them on a website. I havent been fishing yet this year byt I did walk over to the river and take a few test casts. Im pretty happy with the way they run. Im not real happy with the finishes as I said....but I think that is just going to take practice and more patience between coats of paint.

jflures Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 Just a question? why did you use the single hook in back? adding twister tails? By the way the baits look great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonny.Barile Posted April 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 jflures.......if you ever had to get your lure out of the mouth of a 20 lb. blue fish you would switch to singles in the rear.....LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Striperknight Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 They are a great start. Get them to work 1st and the finish work will come to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny.Barile Posted April 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 I have already tested them in the water, and they do swim like they are supposed to. I havent tried really fishing them yet, so I dont know if they catch fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
